Korea's Divide! My First Rifle!



By Reginald Kaigler (Youtuber DEMCAD)

Korea
Today, Residents of Yeonpyeong Island had told to evacuate as South Korea warns of an attack by South Korea. The order claimed five days after a North Korean artillery attack. The strange thing is that the order was lifted 15 minutes after a resident count. There was only several hundred people left on the island, but something freaked the South Koreans out. Very strange, indeed. So we have tensions building between the Koreas, while the U.S. and South Korea working on military drills. Is this the vest time for a war drill?




My First Rifle

In personal news, I finally decided to buy a rifle. Before today, I had my short-term and home defense covered with my Mossberg 500 pump action shotgun and my Glock 21 (chambered in .45 caliber), but not I have a hunting rifle. It's an economy rifle, but it will get the job done. It's a Mossberg Maverick Bolt Action 30-06 Rifle. I choose 30-06 because it was the most common caliber in my area (Michigan). I needed a gun under 300 that I could add a scope and hit targets at 200 yards. So this was my choice. Now, I need to convince a buddy to go hunting with me. Wish me luck!

DEMCAD: If Disaster Strikes...



By Reginald Kaigler (DEMCAD)

No one knows what the future holds, but a wise person hopes for the best and perhaps the worse. I don't know if America will face a dollar crisis, major terrorist attack, financial collapse, economic collapse or an epic natural disaster. But I do know that I want to be prepared for whatever comes my way. Now, I am the first to admit that I am not as prepared as I would like to be. I am a very low-income prepper (one who prepares for emergencies), but I have been making progress over the last 2 years. I started by collecting cans of food.

I didn't go all in, but I did buy some extra cans every time I went to the grocery store. I made sure I had plenty of fruits, vegetables, corn beef harsh, beans, chili, fish and chicken in a can. I never got around to canning my own food, but I've at least set a foundation for my survival. Next, I started to save my V8 bottles and fill them up with water. I stored them in my refrigerator, as I still do, and later bought large containers from Walmart and filled them with water.

The next step was to acquire a firearm. I started off with a Mossberg 500 for home defense and bought a Glock 21 (chambered in .45 caliber) for personal protection.

I also created an emergency bag (aka bug out bag) so that if I ever had to left my home, I would have the basic necessities. I tested some of this gear in the woods of Ketchikan, Alaska, so I know what works and what doesn't.

I used a rope to tie my sleeping bag (rated for 15 degrees) and three person tent to my external frame backpack. Inside the bag, I have a water filter, dry foods, magnesium fire starter, fishing line, fish hook, waterproof matches, a long lighter, small lighters, camp soap, canteen filled with water, knife and a multi-tool.

I'm currently looking for medicines to store. And I'm also considering buying a rifle for hunting. Like I said, my preparation is not perfect, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to sit on my ass and hope everything works out. I'm not saying that you should become a survivalist, but you must take basic steps to protect yourself and your family against disaster.

TSA Revolt! “National Opt Out Day”

Prison Style Search


I love Ron Paul's speech on the TSA power grab. He's introducing new legislation that would make it illegal for government employees to do anything that an ordinary citizen can't do. That means if a TSA does a pad down without probable cause, he or she could get to jail. Paul pretty much hit the nail on the head. Why should the government be involved in security for a private enterprise?

And how safe are these full body scanners? When if they malfunction? Could they expose passengers to unsafe levels of radiation? And why should a TSA worker be allowed to grab someone's testicles without probable cause?

Get ready, November 24th would become the “National Opt Out Day.”

TSA Pushes People Too FAR!



Has the TSA finally crossed?

Actually, they crossed the line a long time ago. Now, the TSA is forcing people to go through a full body scanner that subjects passengers to necessary amounts of radiation. Let's put aside the health threat, which is very real, remember when the U.S. Marshals were busted storing images of people after the government lied its ass off by claiming that the full body scanner photos were always deleted? I do. The U.S. Marshals kept thousands of images of naked people.

Fortunately, people are fighting back. We have DA looking into prosecuting TSA workers, watchdog groups pursuit legal avenues and passengers demanding respect. When a male screener told John Tyler that he was going to inspect his groin, he response became an Internet sensation,

"If you touch my junk, I'm going to have you arrested."



Trends forecaster Gerald Celente appeared on Alex Jones' radio show to tear TSA a new one. It looks like Celente was right about that revolt. Earlier this year, he foresaw a revolt by the American people and this appears to be it. He made a great point about why the American people are finally responding.

"The reason why this is bringing such outrage is because the people are bring directly affected by it. They can feel it. Literally."

Celente continues by arguing that the reason why people were not outraged over the war is because there is no draft and that they were not directly impacted by the war(s).



Try not laugh, but that's what it takes to wake the American people up. They don't care about American soldiers dying in Iraq and Afghanistan for false causes, they don't care about Washington stealing their children's future to feed the greed of the criminal bankers on Wall Street, but if you put your hands down their pants and grab their groin, then they will finally objective.

Frankly, I didn't think people would objective until the bankers were literally threatening to rape their children, but apparently even Americans have their limit. Even the American people have some dignity, albeit, not much.

So is this the beginning of a bold new trend for the American people?

Temptation Can lead to Corruption!



Politico‘s Executive Editor Jim VandeHei went on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” to issue a warning to incoming Congressmen that maybe more important than I first realize. He warned incoming Congressmen to beware of the temptation of Washington. In a nutshell, VandeHei said that a lot of Congressmen (especially unattractive ones) are easily tempted by the attention they receive from young women.

"Especially unattractive members of the Congress who have not had women show attention to them maybe since college. They come here. Power is an aphrodisiac. Suddenly they have women who are interested in them. It’s a temptation some can’t withstand,” VandeHei explained.

Although Joe and Joe were laughing it up, it's important to realize the seriousness of the problem. Because when you think about it, this problem explains partly why Washington is so corrupt.

Imagine some 45 year married guy coming to Washington with a truly noble agenda. He has a daughter in college, a 16 year old son who wants to be a mechanical engineer and a 9 year old who plays soccer. He has kind wife (who weighs 40 pounds more than she did on their Wedding day), a $340,000 mortgage, $40,000/year tuition bill and a load of stress working in the corrupt, bureaucratic nightmare that is Washington. Now, he's probably haven't had a beautiful 21 year old woman talk to him in the last decade.

Suddenly, after 8 months of the Capitol Hill grind, this gorgeous blond approaches him in a lounge. She takes an interest in his work, laughs at his jokes and they share some drinks. She makes him feel strong and intelligent and...manly. She does it with her feminie charms. She has an hourglass figure, long legs, just enough cleavage, a beautiful smile and prefect teeth. The kind of pearly whites you see in a movie star.

They ends up in bed with her and although, he loves his wife, he gives in to this temptation. after all, his wife in Michigan. And it's just him and this unbelievable woman.

Little that he know, this woman is a paid professional. A high end prostitute who works for an operative of The Generic Right Wing Group (a conservative think tank with strong ties to Republican Congressional leadership.) Maybe they have a camera in the hotel room. Or maybe she is just some random young woman who is turned on by power. Women often are drawn to men of power. And men are often stupid. Nevertheless, if someone finds out about the affair, it can be used to control the Congressman. I suspect that this is one of the many ways political parties keep Congressmen (and Congresswomen) in line.

So I second VandeHei's warning. Congressmen, use your head! The bigger one.

Postal Service, BlogTV and Robots!

I'll be on blog TV on Sunday at 8pm ET. I'll be answering questions and talking about the prepping for an economic collapse as well as current events. Only blogtv members will be able to participate in the chat. Callers can call me via Skype (User ID:rkaiger). Click on the link below to find the chatroom to listen.

Anyway, it looks like the U.S. Postal Service is in danger of becoming an even greater money eater than Fannie Mae. We just found out that the Postal Service lost $8.5 billion in the 2010 fiscal year. Is this year an anomaly?

Not really. The Postal Service lost $2.8 billion in 2008 and $3.8 billion in 2009. The economy is definitely killing the service, but it's a needed service. It's far more useful than Fannie Mae. This is a keep part of the retail economy. For example, Amazon.com is the nation's largest online retailer and it ships a lot of items through USPS, so if the Postal Service dies, a big part of online retail will follow suite.



You guys know that I'm a sucker for a good robot story. A robot is being used for a play in Toyko. It centers around a android caretaker who sites poetry to a dying woman. Very strange, but kind of cool. Watch the video below.

Benanke! CEASE and DESIST!


By Reginald Kaigler (DEMCAD)

I'm not going to comment on the rumors of a national banking shut down, because I've already made two videos on it, but it does look as if the Federal Reserve has renewed its efforts to destroy America. In addition to the 600 billion dollars of quantitative easing (printing money out of thin air), the Fed will buy 105 billion dollars in treasury notes in December. Basically, the snake is eating its tail.


Blogger Karl Denninger is calling for Bernanke's firing. Unfortunately, the President isn't listening.


Denniger wrote, "I, and a few others, warned you in advance - when you re-nominated this jackass and even before, based on his bald-faced lies to Congress and you, along with his near-perfect record of being dead flat wrong about damn near everything.....Mr. President: Get that ******* out of office NOW."

Obama knew what he was doing when he hired this clown. Obama could have dumped this guy, but he choose to nominate a man who was a proven failure.

Don't take my word for it, read this February 14th, 2008 CNNmoney article "Paulson, Bernanke: Slow growth ahead". At this point, both Bernanke and Paulson claimed that the U.S. economy was going to avoid a recession in 2008. By April, Bernanke had to admit that a recession was possible. Keep in mind, the recession supposedly began in late 2007.

Some think about that as you read Bernanke's words from a April 7th, 2007 Reuter's story,


"Much necessary economic and financial adjustment has already taken place, and monetary and fiscal policies are in train that should support a return to growth in the second half of this year and next year."


Growth in the second half of 2008? WRONG!

He also though that the recession was over in September 2009. And judging by the NBER's definition, he was right. They define a recession as a contradiction in GDP. I'm a realist. I define a recession as a contradiction in jobs, wealth and the standard of life for the majority of the population. If this contradiction lasts more than two years, I call it a depression.

I don't care about GDP when I can't find a job! I don't care about GDP when I have a college degree, own 50,000 dollars and work for 8 dollars per hour! I don't care about GDP when I'm 50 years old and I'm unemployed and living off of my retirement.

Ben Bernanke has been wrong about almost everything. Zero percent interest rates will not save us. Printing money out of thin air will not save us. He's needs to stop before he destroys this nation.

At this point, I think the dollar's collapse is inevitable, but I will second Denniger's call for President Obama to fire Ben Bernanke.

CEASE and DESIST!
