How much influence am I going to have by trying to push people into a corner? I mean, I'm not going to cut their hands off. You know what I mean? I'm not going to do the things the other people are doing. So you don't have any leverage there. So you got to scream. Am I going to scream at you? Come on. You don't have to do. I'm going to rub your back. And actually, I'm going to bring you some ice cream. I'm going to take the biggest shake I can find. I'm going to bring them on the American camp and I'm going to treat them like the bad ass. He's like, hey, you're a bad ass. Let me get you some food. You want to come meet me on my camp? I'm gonna treat you like, I'm not gonna search you. I'm just gonna bring you on the American camp and I'm gonna treat you like a VIP and I'm gonna start there, you know? And I'm gonna change that fucking dynamic and it works every time. I tell you what, I think the most, one of the most effective things we ever did when in Sodder City was there was this guy who was, you know, you go to the jails, you're working the jails because there's no militia in the jail, right? It's everybody else that's in the jail. So it's a good target audience who's willing to report and spread message. And I'm out there doing my thing and I'm talking about freedom and I'm talking about how, you know, the future and everything else. And I said, who here is brave enough to say what's really going on out there? And nobody ever did anything. Nobody ever said anything. You have to kind of get them one-on-one to have that conversation, but not in a group. And this one guy raises his hand and I was like, oh man, you just like, you just signed your death warrant, you know? Like, what am I going to do now? So we pull it long story short, we ended up breaking this guy out of jail, like literally breaking him out of jail. and i i end up it's a long long story but at the end of the day i give him 20 bucks and i said i want to see you on my base tomorrow and this dude showed up on the fob to find me and i couldn't believe it they called me in my hooch and they're like uh summer color yeah we're down here gate blah blah gate three the guy says he's supposed to see you i said outstanding so i'll go up there and i I, you know, take his phones from him and I quickly tell the guy, he'd write down all his phone numbers while we're over here, you know. And I took him and I did an interview with him. He was willing to go on camera, interview, and talk about all the corruption that he had witnessed in the major crimes unit all over the place. It ended up turning into an investigation against me, but it worked out okay. I figured something bad at this. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It turned into an investigation against me. But the information that this guy was willing, because he showed an element of bravery. And here's the crux of the whole story. I got to tell that part before I tell the other part. It was probably six months later. Same thing. So I go there. You've got a guy over at Gate 3. So I go out there. And it's the same guy. Oh, wow. Yeah. he came back to tell me that he had moved. He was living in a new area. His life was good. And he said, how can I, how can I repay, you know, the whole, my neck is yours thing, which is a phrase they say in a right. And they mean that shit. My neck is yours. I owe you my life. And he says, I owe you my life. I can't go on. I can't go on with my good life until I repay you with my life. Yeah. Yeah. Now that's a quick story that makes you feel good and everything. But just imagine that one guy, how many people he talked to in his life and said, the Americans saved my life. Yeah, totally. That's real psyop. That's real psyop. Now teach 10,000 people how to do that, operate in that way. You know? Yeah. And not be like, they're not allowed to do that. It's like, don't do that. Anyhow, listen, it's Friday. Okay. Go hang out with your kids. Do have a fun time. Have a great weekend. Everybody else do the same thing. Anything in closing for me? No, brother, man. I just love you. I'm glad to be here. Likewise.
