Self-defense mastery and the fight against human trafficking

0:00In this political Coliseum, we slay the rising beast with the fateful sword of truth that transcends hypocrisy and censorship. It's time to unleash yourself from the tyrants of media propaganda on the America out loud talk radio network. This is Unleashed the Political News Outer. Welcome back patriots to another edition of Unleashed the Political News Hour, part of America out loud talk radio. In an era defined by escalating threats to public figures, political activists and everyday Americans, we need to be informed and really understand at a professional level why we have to have security, why we need to have op-sec. I have a friend of mine who is probably one of the best people suited to get into that

1:03topic. I want to give you guys a heads up to, I'm recording this in advance because I've got a funeral that I got to go to next week, so I'm going to be out for that. This is a pre-recorded thing here, but I wanted to really get into this topic because there's a lot of threats that are going on right now, especially in light of the conflict that's going on in the Middle East and threats that are being made. We've also seen just elevated political violence, Charlie Kirk, and it just seems like the far left is getting crazier and crazier and there seems to be no end to it. I wanted to bring somebody on that could talk to that and speak to that and really just share some wisdom with my audience. To do that, I have with me today, Salvatore Bros. III. I call him Sal. We met at an event, basically, at a podcast type of thing that we were doing together

2:05working on a project and really hit it off. Had that camaraderie of both of us being a former army, but he's the real deal. I was just a communications guy and he was one of these guys that was out there in the thick of it. Without further ado, Sal, thanks so much for joining today. Yeah. Nate, thanks for having me on, man. It's a privilege and honor. And just a side note real quick, Kamu's no light thing without Kamu. We can't talk. So we wouldn't survive in the field very long without it, so we appreciate you. That's funny. When I got in, right, they had, I was trained as a telecommunications computer operator maintainer on the tick 39 alpha and that's the top secret messaging switch. And I think I went through the training on it was almost a year of training. They sent me to Korea. I did my first tour over there.

3:06And by the end of the tour, they were decommissioning that piece of equipment, so they said, well, you can go back to school or you can do OJT. And so I opted for, you know, on the job training and that set me up for my career. You know, it set me up, you know, for cyber security. And I'm grateful to the Army was one of those things where I was pretty undisciplined before I went in and I think it gave me, you know, it gave me a lot of discipline. It wasn't easy. You know, it was, it was very difficult. Certainly wasn't, I was not a lifer without a doubt. You know, I did not want to turn it into a career, but it propelled me forward into my career. And then I continued to serve as a DOD employee and as a contractor, a defense contractor for most of my career, at least, you know, probably 25 years doing that. And then, you know, I've had some other, you know, really interesting experiences in different federal, you know, agencies. Tell me and tell our audience a little bit about your background and, you know, in your

4:11experiences. Running short and sweet. I came in as a combat engineer and then was a sapper, a preacher, it was explosive expert. We supported the infantry. I went on to becoming a paratrooper and deployed to Italy or a station in Italy and then we later on deployed to Iraq and then then became, you know, like the ping pong ball, right? It's a plant tennis between Iraq and Afghanistan for all those years. But I really did develop my, my craft, I became very knowledgeable about explosives. At first, it's always P plus play, right? Like it just bigger the better, the better, right? It just blow it all up. But I had the opportunity to work with special forces and they had 18 Charlie positions that they were using, which is a, a preacher. And they taught me how to fine tune that craft to taking a smaller amount of explosives and doing the same job. So it was, again, an honor and a privilege to have that education to work with some of

5:13the world's best at it. I got out of the military in 2011 and immediately started a contract, right? That's just what we know, right? So I went back doing the same job just as a civilian and did that for about five years. Last tour was in Afghanistan and I ended my career, breaking my back, paralyzed me for about two weeks. They met a vacate me out black hawk and sent me out to a UK hospital and told me I'd never walk again. And I'm like, well, that's what's this shit kind of sort of thing, right? And about three or four days later, sort of feeling, you know, the sensation of my, my big toe and my right foot. And I'm like, I got this like, come on, man, and I literally for like 23 hours a day would stare at that toe and like manifest it to move like I dare you to move. And finally, you know, the feeling moved up my legs and back, back on my feet again. But that was into my career. Military's over contract careers over.

6:15So I didn't know what to do. So I went home, started a security company and started doing high end executive protection for celebrities and dignitaries and just wealthy individuals all over the country. And I started sending people around the world. Now that that company is a sword and shield. L.S. That was a different company. I don't know. Okay. That company's gone. Now what I do, it is called sword and shield and it started it as right at the end of COVID, middle of COVID, into COVID as just people coming to me saying, Hey, Sal, you're in the army, right? I'm like, yeah. They're like, well, do you know how to shoot? And I'm like, yeah. And they're like, okay, great. I have this gun that I haven't touched. And I don't even know where it is anymore like for five years. It's in the closet. There's some blankets. And I'm like, okay, stop. I'm like, what? Just bring it to me and let me see if it's not rusted shut. And we can figure out next steps. And I just started teaching these classes. You know, one person here, two people there, five people.

7:16And I wasn't even charging for it. I'm just helping people at this point, right? It's COVID. People are scared. They wanted to defend themselves. Their family is their house. So I came up with something I call a range day program and then a home assessment where the home assessment, I come to you, man. You know, we go 360 degree, like six tip of your house inside, outside, room by room. We train your family. You're, you know, your dog even, it doesn't matter. We go over, you know, using reflective surfaces. How to use your weapon in your home over penetration, what rounds work and what rounds you shouldn't use in a home defense type situation. You know, we come up with a password or a safe word where at three o'clock in the morning, mom or dad start screaming, Pond Apple, you know, the kids know that's the oh shit, where I need to get to where I need to get to in the safe room. We have 911 procedures. How do you really talk to the police? You know, there's a way to do that effectively and there's a way to prevent them from getting to you quickly. So we disregard all the things that are bad and I teach people how to really, you know,

8:20use their skills and from what I've learned in the military to keep them safe in the worst possible scenario, you know, to the going through it at a certain time. And then the range day, it's, we use a shoot house with SIM guns and you get to shoot at each other with, you know, SIM rounds and it's a realistic live role plan scenario event where you come to me and it's a five hour course. We go through the shoot house for like three, three and a half hours. We do a catered lunch after lunch. We take it to live our range, right? So we work on fundamentals, just the fundamentals, the basics, because what I learned in my military career, we all young guys like, oh, we got to get to the most advanced this that the other. When you start working with the best, they teach you the basics, right? And they utilize the basics and they're so well versed in the basics. That's what makes them look so advanced and professional and things like this. So it's just, it's very simple, five fundamentals, and that's it. You know, we don't talk about breathing control because you're already breathing.

9:21We don't talk about stance, stance is not a fundamental shooting. I know other people will tell me, no, but it's not, you're already standing, you're sitting, you're laying down, it doesn't matter. How are you going to get to your weapon and present it effectively and efficiently? That's what we have to worry about. You're already breathing. We teach you little stress drills, so when you get, because my load, my slogan is, so the first time isn't the first time, right? Come to me, I put you in a high stress environment, we stress you, we scare you, we put a weapon in your hand with sim rounds in it, we come at you, we shoot all around you, and you have a chance to squeeze a trigger on a real human being in a nonlethal environment, giving you the skills and the motivation to love hate or hey, look, well, you know, there must be something to it, because the army does that in basic training with live fire drills, you know, and I remember that, that was an exciting night, but I see in the tracers going over my head and hearing, you know, dynamite going off in those, you know, the big old concrete

10:23cylinders and stuff, but yeah, it's all designed to really create a scenario so that you can see how you handle things under pressure, and I think that's so important, yeah, absolutely. I've just taken that philosophy and brought it to the civilian world and teach it to civilians, that's all I do. You know, I had many of you guys listening to the show, I probably know about my background as a whistleblower, I had death threats, I had multiple attempts on my life, and how I, you know, really one of the things that helped me through that was I had a couple of guys that came up from another security firm, very similar to yours. They came up and they, you know, basically helped me outfit my, you know, my property to make sure that we had clear line of sight. There's a lot of things that as a human being, you have kind of an instinctual idea of how to deal with things that are actually the wrong thing to do, like we had covered up all our windows, because we had media people and stuff, bad idea, right? Because we need to be able to see them,

11:28and they need to see us seeing them. And, you know, there, there's some other things though, like, you know, we had a lot of dark spots around our property and getting lighting in place was, you know, critically important. Probably one of the most valuable things that they, they taught me, as I remember them sitting, you know, down with my wife and I, and they said, look, you need to make sure that anytime you go somewhere that you got your family with you. And, and, you know, as much as possible, because if anybody's going to take you out, it's going to be when you're alone. And, and then he said something that kind of caught my attention, he goes, because that's when I would do it. And I realized, you know, these guys are killers, man. These guys were seals and, and special operations, you know, green braze, you know, they're sitting in my living room telling me this. I'm going, yeah, these guys probably have done a couple of missions like that. And they waited until the guy was away from their family, before they took him out. So it was a, it was very enlightening and, and, and, you know, it,

12:33it woke me up to the reality that, that sometimes the things that we think, you know, aren't, aren't, you know, correct. And, and the military, you know, has a lot of, you know, hundreds of years of, of doctrine and training in these things and they understand that. And you do come out of the army, you know, with a lot of really good knowledge in that area. For most people probably just kind of let that knowledge fade, but you have taken it to the next level and said, okay, how do we take this? And, you know, and, and help somebody utilize this information to make them, you know, make their life safer and, and create safety for their family. Well, folks, we got to cut to a commercial break. But when we get back from the break, we're going to continue in this conversation with Sal. So stick with us. We will be right back.

We're now heading into our second segment, and before we went on the break, I was talking with Sal about the experience that I had of

15:42these guys that came into my home and really gave some critical advice that to be honest with you, I think some of it clearly probably saved my life. I only know of three attempts on my life. There was probably more than that or would have been more than that. Had I not had some other security practices in place, one of the things that they had also said was they recommended that I get a camera for my car that's motion activated. I put it up in my camera because that way it would detect if anybody was working around my car, messing around with my vehicle. There's a lot of things like that that I think are invaluable, especially for people that are at high risk. You might be somebody that is famous or you might be somebody that's at a risk for kidnapping or you may be a politically active person. In my case, I was a whistleblower and

16:46had become internationally known in the media because of blowing the whistle on Uranium One. The FBI's cover-up of that. I think a lot of people may not think of themselves being at risk, but there are risks even to people who are not famous, who are not celebrities, who are not politically active. We've seen that recently with this shooter down in Texas who basically shot up a bar and killed a couple people. We've seen this at other mass shooting events and what I call soft targets. These places where supposedly they say, no guns are allowed. Those that have guns who don't follow the law know exactly where to go and get mass casualties. Tell our audience about what people can do to protect themselves in those types of situations. Maybe it's a sporting

17:49event where they can't bring a gun because they check you going in or maybe it's a government building or something like that. What do you recommend for people? So, unfortunately, in the places that will not allow you to carry firearms or a knife or any type of weapon, it is extremely hard to defend yourself in those situations. However, you can operate on that, see something, say something, rule where you have to have situational awareness. You can't be blind. Don't walk on your phone. Keep your phone in your pocket. If you have to text or you need to make a call or something comes in and you need to check your phone, stop, put your backup against the wall, check your left and your right flank and look at your phone and see what that was, respond real quick. Again, before you put it up, look to your left, look to your right, now to your front, put your phone up and then continue walking in the direction that you were going. The situation like the thing in Texas where you had an active shooter, he chose a soft target

18:52and he did that for a specific reason because he knew there would be no one there that could oppose him. We have the second amendment. I think we should lean on that hard. We have the right to carry weapons, to conceal weapons. If you have a weapon and you want to learn how to carry it and conceal it, go get the proper training. An untrained shear is just as dangerous as an active shear. If you don't know what you're doing and you don't have the training, please don't pull your weapon, keep it in your pocket or keep it in your pants and the holster and move on. Try to help push people into a safe area. If you have the training and you feel comfortable doing so, it is your duty as an American citizen to engage with that individual. He poses a direct threat to not only you, your family, the people around you, the business, whatever the case may be, he is there to do as much physical harm and mental harm as possible. You have weapons of mass destruction, it's also a weapon of mass disruption. You walk into an event, thousands of people and you start

19:57shooting, it's chaos. Then you get the surge, people get crushed, we're trampled, all these things. Learn, look at the mindset of a terrorist. Look at how they're trained and adapt that a little bit so you can see it when you see it. You have to have situational awareness and you have to look ahead and look out and away from you. I've always said, when any security detail I've ever done, I can see better, the farther away I am, rather than being close up and in the mix of everything. You miss things when you're right inside the bubble. You can't see what's coming from the outside, you can't, you miss things because it catches you in a split second and you have to react. The thing about reaction is if the person that's coming at you is already responding or reacting, your reaction time is going to be slower than his because he's already in the action of whatever it is he's doing. You mentioned things like the camera in your car. I use cameras and lights for

20:57the home assessments. Nothing's hardwired. Everything is motion activated and solar powered. We place them strategically around your property and inside and outside of your home. If it's on a perimeter fence or in the wood line, if you have a big piece of property and a light goes on and then another light goes on and then another light goes on, you see the direction that that individual or thing is moving and you see how fast it's moving. You know where to line up your shot if you're using a sector sketch. This is my angle. That is my known distance. That tree is 300 meters. That stump is 250 meters. You develop a sector sketch. You draw a map of your yard and your home and you get known distances. Then you practice. You go to the range and you line up your scope and you know what it is and get that training from either your local law enforcement or someone like me who's a firearm instructor who's done it. He's a master at it. You always want to find the best

21:58person possible. Do your research. Find out who it is and then go find it and get that knowledge. I carry everywhere I go. If I can't carry into a building, I know Dan will what I'm walking into. I know where my weapon is. When I have to come out, if I have to come out running, I know how far I'm going to be from it. I know how to get to it. I already have my key five in my pocket ready to go. A lot of my female clients, you know, you go to the store. You come out with your bags in your hand. Your hands are loaded. You're looking down. You're checking your phone. You got your kids everywhere running around. You're not paying attention. What's out ahead of you? Use your rings of security or in the military, we call it five by 25. Five meters out. What are you looking at? 10 meters out. What are you looking at? 15, 20, 25 meters out. What are you looking at? Where are the danger areas? In between cars, that's a danger area. A head of you in a dark area. That's a danger area. If you, I like to back into parking spaces so I can pull out. You'll never see me.

23:01One of those parking lots where you just have to strategically place your vehicle in a place that's easy to get away. If you pull up to an unknown location, drive around for a minute. If you have to be there at three o'clock, leave it to a clock. So you can get there and kind of scout out the area a little bit. Do your planning. That's so important. People we drive blind nowadays, we put on our GPS on our phone or on our vehicles and we just drive to this thing, this machine, telling us where to go. We don't really know where we're going. We haven't done a proper plan on what we do when we get there. A lot of people don't carry guns anymore and they just get out and walk blindly hoping that everything's going to be okay. The thing about faith, the thing about hope, it's great. I walk by faith, not by sight, but I'm prepared. I know God's got my back, but at the same time, God's also awarded me the opportunity to get that proper training. I can defend myself, my family, my friends, my community in case of an active shooter

24:06or someone breaks into my neighbor's house. I'm going to respond to that. The thing about law enforcement, these guys, they have a huge responsibility on the shoulders. We as civilians, if they're responding to a situation, active shooter, get out of the way, let them do their job, but if you're in a position to help, help. There was a situation on an airplane. Very recently, guy got up and was screaming death to America. I got a bomb. I'm going to blow the plane up. A couple passengers took the guy down, restrained him. They did an emergency landing, and then the police department came in and took the guy off the plane. What I saw that bothers me is a lot of people take our iPhones out and they start recording this individual. What is that? What are you going to do? If he blows up the plane, the video's gone. Stop recording everything. Stop trying to video this and video that and all these things. It's not important. What's important is human life. We've forgotten that, I think.

25:10I think we need to get back to community. We need to get back to the individual itself and how to bring back God and our community, how to bring back love into our neighbor kind of thing. There is something to be said about. Small town America knows everybody. You talk about community and neighbors and stuff. I know my neighbors. We've had them over. I've been over to their place. We make it a point of getting to know our neighbors. Because in the event of some catastrophe, I want to know that people are going to stay calm and that we're going to help each other out and we're not going to turn on each other. I have read assessment after assessment when I was working at the FBI of Doomsday scenarios. And it all comes down to the cities or the worst place because people turn on each other and

26:12eventually they start killing each other. I think when you know your neighbors, when there's that human element, you know when somebody in your neighborhood is not from around there, that saying you were talking about seeing something say something, being able to call somebody, hey, you see this guy walking around your property? Was that guy supposed to be walking around your property? Do you know him? Just something as simple as that. Also another thing too that I think is important for people to keep in mind is that in the day and age that we're living in now with the the war that's going on in Iran, there's been multiple statements made by Iranian leaders saying calling for, you know, basically all Americans or Israelis or fair game go after them all, you know, try to, you know, basically terrorize them. And, you know, and I don't think that we should walk around feared, you know, fearful or scared, but I do think that we we do need to be a

27:14little bit more, you know, have a little more precaution. Yeah, I walk in a perfect example. You know, we went somewhere the other day and my wife asked me is we're walking out the door. Are you armed? You know, and, you know, because we were going somewhere that we weren't familiar with. And, and then, you know, the other thing too is like when we go to a place like a restaurant, I always sit somewhere where I can see, you know, who's coming in and, you know, I have visual, visual line of sight to the entrances and exits. I think that's another, you know, kind of important thing because if you're, if you're unaware, like you were talking about people looking at their phones, how many times have we seen somebody walking down the street? And they, they almost get hit by a car because they're not paying attention. They're looking at their phone. Situational awareness is everything. I gave a gentleman 30 seconds today. He was walking head down in his phone, had a ball cap on, so he couldn't see what was directly in front of him. He and I were walking, you know, head to head. I just stopped and literally counted this dude ran

28:17slapping to my hand. I put my hand out, and he ran smack into my hand. I'm like, you're good? He's oh, man, I'm so sorry. I'm like, yeah, no, those phones are crazy, right? He's, yeah, yeah, yeah, what Aaron, he just, I'm like that, that right there is so important for people to understand. When you're walking and you're not paying attention to what's in front of you, you have no idea what's coming at you. You said you go into a restaurant or a building and you never put your back, I never put my back to the front door. I always sit close to an exit, you know, or I find up, I'll go put my back up against the wall, your position myself somehow strategically in the room where I can get up, I can get out, I can fight, whatever I have to do, defend myself and whoever's with me. And if I can't put myself or my back to the door, right, or the wall, use things like reflective surfaces, your sunglasses, take your sunglasses off and put them on the table and look in the mirrored part of the sunglasses to see. I never thought about that dude, I got, I got to train a little secrets, man, I can give you all day long, you know, I give a whole class

29:19on the garage of your house because people don't know how to use the garage properly. That's a whole class. And I get so many surprise looks, you like, but then the first 10 minutes, like, oh my god, I never thought about that. I do that all the time. I'm like, yep. And like you said earlier, if that was me, I'd have you all day long, right? I know how to get to you. I know when to get to you. I know exactly where and when and how you're going to go out, right? And that's what I teach you, you know, and people look at my teacher crazy. I'm like, no, I'm just smart. I know what I'm doing. And I don't want to be a victim. Yeah. And I don't want you to be a victim either. Well, you know, speaking of victims, you think about we have this great privilege. You know, this wasn't really, it's a right. We have this right in this country to, to, you know, to bear arms to defend ourselves, to defend our families. And how many people don't even exercise that? It's amazing. And you think about it like here, I'll tell you folks why

30:23I think it's important. We have a perfect example right in front of our eyes, Iran. Iran, they were a free people that were just as Western as we were. And in the 70s, you had the Islamists and you had the socialists that came together to overthrow. And it was the youth that overthrew the government. And then of course, the Islamists killed all the socialists and took over and became a dictatorship. Now, for 40 something years, they have been basically the people have been essentially in slavery there without any ability to change any of their circumstances. And why is that? Because none of them were armed. No, we've got to ensure like, I really look at the fact that we've got so many guns in the hands of U.S. citizens that gives us a much better shot at that never happening in our country. But there are pockets of places of

31:24where, you know, the state governments, you know, have put heavy restrictions on guns to where even if you have guns, it makes it difficult to be able to use them to defend yourself. I think of like Maryland, where, you know, they have rules that say, if you're in a car, you got to separate the magazine from, you know, you know, get your bullets out of it. One's got to be locked in one case and one locked in another. It's like, are you kidding me? Like, what? What is there to wish in one all the time? I heard, I think it was Bill Mar has a funny comedic act where he's talking about, you know, he bought a gun and his wife didn't like it. And she's like, you know, take, you know, can you make sure it's disassembled, you know, and he goes, oh, yeah. So what am I supposed to do? Some murder comes into the house. I'm going to run around going, hey, where's the trigger? Hey, where's the spring? You know, try to try to put it together. And I do think that, you know, we have to be prepared. And I think it's our duty. I think it's our duty. I know this that a lot

32:29of people are afraid of guns, but they're not afraid of cars. And why are they not afraid of cars because they've learned how to use them? And the reality is, is there's no reason to be afraid of guns if you've had training and you know how to use it. And, you know, the fact is, is that most Americans aren't going around looking to kill somebody. They're not looking at, you know, oh, I'm going to go and just find some random person shoot it. That's what crazy people do. Just like people aren't driving their, you know, we're not afraid to walk down the street on the sidewalk, even though a car may be passing and he could just as easily swerve over and try to hit you and kill you. And why don't we worry about that? Because we know the average human being is not looking out to just kill, you know, some random person. And the same is true with guns. So do yourself a favor, go out and buy a gun, arm yourself. If for no one else put for your family, I've thought many times, look, you know, if I were in the mall and some shooter came, you know, out there

33:30and was like, you know, starting shooting the place up, the last thing that I would want to be saying to myself is dang it. I wish I had a gun. And so I try to be armed everywhere I go, you know, if not for me for my family and for others that are around me. And I will say this, if you are going to be a patriot and you're going to carry a firearm, carry a spare mag, okay? If it's semi-automatic pistol, not a revolver, which revolvers the kind of thing in the past, you have to have the ability to reload, okay? If you only have 15 rounds and you get a little overzealous or nervous or anxious or whatever and you start squeezing that trigger and you run out of rounds, you're dead and water anyway. You have to have the ability to attach, go reload or an emergency reload in that situation when it presents itself. Have a very good point. In fact, you know, there's been studies on this that show that, you know, in a gun fight, the one with the most ammo is the one that wins generally.

34:31I teach a course. It's called a hundred rounds for a hundred feet. You take a building and you quartered up 25 feet, right? So you have four quarters of the building. I walk in with a hundred rounds. Well, it takes me 50 rounds to go through the first room. I have 50 rounds left. I go into the next room. I shoot five rounds. I mean, rounds where I have left, I go into the third room. I shoot 45 rounds and my combat effective enough to go into the fourth room, right? I need to know my ammo count, my limitations. Yeah, no, absolutely. Well, folks, we got another hard break to hit here and this has been a great discussion. I think this is really important information. Stick around. We're going to continue this discussion and we've got more coming up too. We're going to get into the topic of human trafficking and talking about, saw what the kinds of things that you've been working on, things that, that seems the Lord keeps bringing into your life.

I've been talking here with my good friend Sal about personal defense and, you know, situational awareness and the importance of protecting yourself and your family and your community. This next segment, I want to get into,

37:43I'm going to change the subject a little bit, but Sal, you know, we were talking before, you know, before we started this and it seems like there's some new things that are happening in your life. You've been very busy working on some stuff. Tell us a little bit about that. What is going on and what's God been doing in your life? God's been, he's been pushing me in a direction that I'd really want to go and I keep trying to go the opposite direction and every time I do, he kicks me in a butt and makes me go back. About a year ago, I got a phone call from a buddyman who said he knew a movie director who needed some help with a scene and I said, sure, having reached out, he did. We worked through the process and we ended up doing, we ended up filming on the range that I have access to in the shoot house that I operate in and on the second day of shooting, the director came up to me, he says, hey, listen, we really like you. Would you like to stay a part of this? I'm like, yeah, why not? So I ended up becoming the assistant director, the producer. I acted in the movie. I was

38:46a military advisor, stunt coordinator and I did the underwater videography because I'm a big scuba diver. I love to, I love to dive. But it was really a God thing. It's a faith-based movie. It's called the eleventh hour and it's about human trafficking and there's one man struggle through faith because he didn't act when he could have or should have and lost an individual. You know, a long time ago and then, you know, we fast-forwarded the present day and he had, you know, since taking out the the the car tell people that didn't have this child and then he's he dedicated his life to this to these to the anti-human trafficking world and he goes and he with his team, he rescues kids from around the world and that's when he leaned on me a lot to bring in my military expertise and for the realism of the movie to make sure that, you know, when we were

39:48doing things with weapons and, you know, certain techniques that looked legit, it looked real. So that was that was my role. So you mean like in movies where I always laugh at this, in movies where you see some guy empty out, you know, 50 rounds out of a pistol that could hold maybe 12 rounds at the best. They prevent that kind of stuff. There were some scenes in the movie because I came into it late, you know, and he showed me part of it. I'm like, dude, they've literally been shooting for 30 minutes. They didn't change magazine once. I'll tell you where I think about that my my career field, of course, in cybersecurity whenever I see a movie in the hackers like, I'm in, never that way. They'll spend months trying to get in, you know, not like seconds. It just cracks me up. Yeah, but it was it was a it was a true pleasure for me to be on this production. It was such an education. The director really trusted me and gave me a lot of

40:50rope, you know, and he would call and we talked for hours or we'd go film and then we go sit at waffle house for like another three hours talking about tomorrow. And, you know, so we didn't sleep a lot. We didn't eat a lot and we but we worked a lot, right? The movie was released the day before Thanksgiving on Venmeo. Didn't really do a whole lot of good on that and we're but he's reached out to other streaming networks and, you know, angel studios is looking at it, things like that. You know, you can see the trailer. You can see the movie. We can send links out and tell you how to do all that later on. But it's a good movie. It really is. And it was a I mean, it was a true blessing for me to be a part of it. And I wasn't I was not in my in my purview to be doing a movie or in a movie or anything. But since then got, but I don't know what it was about human trafficking. And it just every person I talked to every right turn left turn straight revert whatever

41:52it had to do with human trafficking. And I kept trying to avoid it because I know what that means for me and my my background and what I do. And I just I'm fearful because I know when I dive in, I dive in and I'm not coming back, right? That's just what I do is who I am. But I had I have an opportunity right now to use the movie for something coming up and it's a big deal. And I got the directors approval. I reached out to several individuals in my community. And we are I am going to host a black tie events premiere at Trilleth Live. We're going to show the movie. And then we're going to have an intermission. I'm going to host it. I'm going to talk and do other things. And but it's a big charity event. And we're doing it for the House of Cherith. And we're I'm hoping to be able to write them a very substantial check at the end of it. We have our political leaders here in the state are pretty good about a lot of things. And I know our governor's wife Marty is she's

42:56very passionate about anti human trafficking or mayor's office has a as a program about violence reduction in anti human trafficking leading up to the fight for World Cup, which starts in June. So my goal my mission right now is to have our premiere before the World Cup kicks off to raise awareness and training and provide funding and donations to the the organizations in our community that can help these kids and these people come out of traffic. Be being traffic, you know, and get them back to normal life if that's possible. That's that's my mission right now. That's what I'm doing. That God keeps pushing me to it. So I finally just said, okay. And I'll I'll go the way you want me to go. So you know, I want to just for those that are listening, you may not realize just how prevalent you know, this problem is especially at an event. I just did a search, you know, on Grock just, you know, asked it, hey,

44:01you know, what are giving some some key statistical points regarding association between human trafficking and major events such as FIFA the World Cup. And they said that in the pre 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany predictions versus reality that advocacy groups and media widely circulated, you know, estimates of 30 to 60,000 women and girls would be trafficked into Germany for sexual exploitation to me, anticipated demand from visitors. The the basically they said that post event assessments by international organization for migration and German authorities, you know, that they they start looking into this and, you know, that there are large numbers of girls that are being trafficked. I think it's it's a huge problem that oftentimes is not even reported and I don't think the government really has a way of knowing

45:05especially in these places where there's been mass migration where you have like wide open borders and, you know, illegals that are here that are under, you know, unaccounted for. Yeah. So, you know, it is a it's a big problem and and I think that, you know, sporting events are one of the biggest things I know NFL super bowl that's I've talked to, you know, officers of the law that, you know, that deal with that and that's a big big problem, you know, surrounding, you know, those types of games and stuff. What do you see as, you know, as the the biggest cause of this in our country today? Oh, God. I mean, obviously, this kind of stuff has happened going all the, I mean, it's original sin. It goes all the way back to the beginning of man, right, slavery and sexual slavery and sexual sin, but but it seems like it revolves around a lot of

46:07wealth and people, people that have a lot of money tend not to live in our normal society levels, you know, they think that because I have money, I can buy whatever I want, even if it's a human being. And it just, it's a really hard thing for me to understand that, you know, I can just take money and I can go buy this human and do what I want with it and then just discard it like it's a piece of trash and I'm done. I don't operate that way and I wasn't raised that way. So, but that's, that's an interesting point because, you know, a big problem that they've seen in Europe, right, with a lot of the migration from some of these third world countries where people were raised that way. You think about like, especially the Islamic world, you know, we're finding out some of the terrible things have been going on in Iran that when a girl goes to prison that,

47:10you know, if she's, you know, going to be, you know, executed that under their guidance from the Ayatollah, the former Ayatollah, that they're to rape the girl so that she doesn't get to go to heaven because, you know, they, they, you know, if she's not a virgin, then she'll, you know, she'll go to hell or whatever, but it's like, this is the kind of crazy nonsense, the dehumanization, I think is a big problem. We see that dehumanization happening not just in the area of sex, but also in the area of politics, you know, when you have people that are shouting and saying things like, oh, you're a Nazi, you know, because you're a Nazi, you know, that justifies us to kill you, you know, that's, that's basically what that's all about. So, we have a, this epidemic in the United States now where it's okay to say whatever it is you want to say, you want to burn the American flag, fine, burn it, you want to death to America, say it, no one's going to hurt you, no one's going to say anything, we're just going to stand by and we're going to go over here and just listen.

48:10We, we got to, we got to stand up, right, we got to stop, we got to take our country back. When, when you have these, and this is how I look at it, you can call me crazy if you want to, when I have a foreign, born individual military age male coming into my country, burning my flag and saying, death to America, he's a terrorist, okay? He does not, he should not get awarded the same rights that I have to live by as an American citizen. We need to act, we need to act quickly, quickly and swiftly and effectively to neutralize that threat before it becomes a bigger threat. If we allow it to happen once, it's going to happen twice, it's going to get bigger and worse and it's going to continue and before we know it, we're going to wake up one day and we're going to be controlled by a foreign leader or a dictator or whatever we're not going to have, we're not going to be called Americans. I'm not going to be able to get in my truck and travel across the state line or be able to carry a firearm or go to the grocery store because we have these

49:11zealots down the street with guns killing us because they can't and weren't because we didn't do anything good. Well, so I think that's really what boils down to. There are two kind of separate groups, right? In one, you have the elites, the super wealthy, the super rich, people that are not accountable to anybody. They live in a different society, a different world view than we do because they can. That's part of the problem. I think a lot of the frustration, like I said, the Epstein files, is that you get all of these elites that clearly were involved with Jeffrey Epstein and his sickness, but nobody has been held accountable. The only person that's been held accountable is just saying Maxwell. That in and of itself is a problem. But the other problem is people who do not hold the values that we as a Western society hold.

50:13They don't see women as equals. They don't see them as even humans. They see them as less than human. It's the same ideology that was behind chattel slavery and what allowed for justification of that. That world view, in my opinion, should never be allowed citizenship in our country ever, ever because that is what leads to more of that kind of stuff happening in our society. There will always be elites. There will always be the powerful. That's hard to deal with, but we do have the ability to deal with not allowing people into our country that mean us harm and that don't hold the sacred values that we hold that are in our constitution. I think that's one of the things that is really just it's sad. I look at what's happened

51:19in the political world. I do want to get a little bit into just a real quick segue into politics here. I look at what's happened in terms of Ilhan Omar and Rashidah to leave in these women who are members of Congress that are speaking out in favor of the Islamic Republic and are basically trying to tear down Trump for defending the United States against a nuclear threat and it's disgusting. It's disgusting especially because in the case of Ilhan Omar, she was blessed with the privilege of becoming an American citizen and yet she has worked so hard to tear down the very thing that saved her from Somalia. We have a lot of people that are in this country that have worked really hard to come here legally and who make great Americans.

52:27But we also have a lot of people that have come here illegally or come here through the refugee status program and they are not compatible with American ideals and with Western ideals. It's not my chance either. They're here on an agenda. We have to wake up to that and that's what we have those talks all the time about. Okay, what do we do? They should have rights to listen. America is a nation of immigrants, right? My grandparents came over and all these I get it. But when you come over specifically to do harm to our country, that's not citizenship. That's not you trying to do the right thing. You were being implanted in a nation to do harm to pretty much take us out, right? So we have to be very careful and educate ourselves and educate our friends and

53:27our families and one thing I try to do all the time is challenge other men. You know, when I look at a man and I tell him if you're a husband, if you're a father, if you're a grandfather, if you're a brother, whatever it is, you know, you have the duty of protection. You know, we are protectors, we're providers. You know, we have to lean on something, right? Or we'll kind of fall for anything, right? But as a man, as a protector, it's our duty to protect our families, right? If you have a family, if you have a wife, if you have a daughter, imagine your wife and your daughter being taken from you and then thrown into slavery or being thrown into sex trafficking to be just rolled one after the other and beaten and being, you know, addicted to drugs and all these things that would just defile her and her virtue. How would you feel about that? You know,

54:28what would you do to prevent that, right? If you don't have the training, if you're not capable, if you're not physically capable, if you don't have a weapon, whatever, figure out a plan, right? You're the man, you're the head of the household, you're the provider, you have to come up and you have to, you have to provide a safety plan for your family and your home. It's your duty. So, you know, I think it's Jordan Peterson talks about that part of being a man is that we need to have a monster, that one that's under control, but one that we can unleash when necessary. And that is really one of the duties, you know, of men is to be the protector of our home. In fact, the Bible is pretty clear about it. It says that he that does not take care of his family is worse than an infidel. And, you know, and that's, I think, I think that's what really it comes down to is that we have that duty to protect not just our family, but our

55:29communities, our neighbors, our country. And, you know, and there are some who understand that duty and who have served. And I'm grateful for your service as well as the people that are over there right now that are serving, you know, to keep our country safe. I think that there's, there's, there's something that we, that's something that that we've, I think, done a pretty good job of, you know, unfortunately, Vietnam, it got really bad, but I think we've done a much better job since then at recognizing and making sure that that's a part of our culture that we recognize the service of others, especially in the military. I think we need to do a much better job of recognizing the service of our law enforcement and our border patrol, clearly. But, you know, it's, it really is, you know, up to the individual, having the courage to speak up when they see something, to step in and do something about it when they have the opportunity and the means.

56:34Folks, this is a good cause and it's one of the reasons I want to have Salon. Please do reach out and, you know, find out how you can help and remember to stay engaged and remember your duty because we all have a duty to, you know, our communities, to our families, to our country. With that, God bless and have a great day.
