Armed Mexican Narco-Traffickers Operating on Our Northern Border Now

Posted on by

The Cartel’s influence spreads and will continue to destabilize civil society. Now they’re on our Northern border and the government still has no plan to deal with this transnational paramilitary.

From Arizona Lawman’s News and Phoenix Police Gazette:

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Northern Wisconsin’s Chequameqon-Nicolet
National Forest is a vast, verdant getaway for hundreds of thousands
of campers, hikers and anglers every year. But hidden within was a
marijuana megafarm.

Investigators say a band of Hispanic men turned the forest’s
southeastern tip into a giant pot farm, growing thousands of plants
on remote plots, moving supplies along forgotten logging roads and
buying supplies and ammunition at local stores.

Nobody in law enforcement has said it publicly, but the style matches
that of Mexican cartels that have been using public land in the
United States to grow vast amounts of marijuana and avoid the risk
and expense of smuggling the drugs across the border.

“There certainly is an element to this that leads one to believe
there is a Hispanic connection here,” Wisconsin Attorney General
J.B. Van Hollen said. He declined to elaborate.

According to court documents, investigators discovered nine plots of
plants in the southeastern tip of the Nicolet section after a person
noticed two Hispanic men preparing a grow site in the forest.

Federal, state and local police spent June and July tailing suspected
growers, following pickup trucks down abandoned logging roads and
watching Hispanic men appear in the trees and toss nylon sacks
resembling grain feed bags into the beds.

They followed one suspect to a Fleet Farm in Green Bay, where he
purchased six pairs of pruning shears. They watched another man
purchase 9 mm ammunition at a nearby Wal-Mart, documents said.
The suspected growers eventually led investigators to a house in
Seymour, about 15 miles southwest of Green Bay. According to court
documents, the house was a marijuana processing factory.

Green Bay is a hell of a trek from the border. But don’t worry, all the chaos from Mexico is being overstated to scare White people right?

Lynn Thompson: Fighting With Bowie Knives

Posted on by

Cold Steel’s Lynn Thompson is unfairly criticized for being an armchair warrior (by other armchair warriors for the most part) though he does all a responsible person can do to demonstrate the quality of his products. He hunts and camps with Cold Steel products to show you how well they work, and takes the time to actually find people to train him in using these tools efficiently.

Here he discusses the basics fighting with the bowie knife. Woods loafers and survivalists in rural areas often can find a use for a big knife and Cold Steel’s Bowies are a backpacker’s delight so this video seems a natural fit for my woods running readers or anyone who decides to carry a bowie because of it is a light brutally effective weapon that can double as a camp ax and field knife in a pinch.

He’s demonstrating the Laredo and Natchez Bowies in the video. The Laredo can be had for under $200 which is a good deal on this sort of knife, the Natchez? Almost $500 on sale at Amazon which is too rich for my blood, but some people swear by them. There are good quality Bowie knives to be had for much cheaper, like this Winchester Bowie, but most will have stainless steel blades that will not stand up long term to vigorous use. You get what you pay for.

It’s about 25 minutes so settle in.
