Team member and Major Crimes Detective for the last 19 years. He has seen just about every crime you can imagine while responding to crimes that have been committed against the citizens of Knox County. Crimes comitted against them in their homes and the crimes committed against them when out of their homes. Matt is going to talk to folks tonight about the things they can do to increase their odds of not becoming a crime statistic when they are at home, and when they are out of their homes.

Government has always been a corrupt entity. Ever since the first group of less hairy apes banded together for mutual defense and support, and one of the biggest, and most scheming apes elected itself leader, there has been corruption, favoritism, nepotism and just downright thuggery. America is no different. We ran a good game for a little while, being a brand new entity, but we have been working on getting dirty for a long time and we have been spiraling down into corruption and spoil at breakneck speed for the last two decades. It seems there is nothing that our government will not do now, from lying and stealing to murdering it's own citizens, individually, and by the plane, helicopter and compound full. Government has become so large and powerful and so contempt-full of the people it governs that it has become completely careless and sloppy at covering up the lies and thefts and murders now. Our leaders go on TV and just tell us that we can not believe what we see or hear. That because they say the sky is green, we should just swallow it whole without questioning them. In fact, they get indignant about our questions and have made it common practice to go after folks who shine too much light on the lies the government deals out to us. In some cases, who knows really how many, shining a light on the governments lies has caused the shiners death. So what can we do about it? My grandfather told me once when we were cleaning out the chicken coop, that sometimes the coop gets so nasty and infested with vermin, that there is no good solution for the mess. The only thing that can be done is to get a can of kerosine, some newspaper and a match. That may be the point we are at now. Maybe we need a big can of kerosine and a big match. Call in tonight and tell me what you think the solution could be 347-308-8790 -Scout

In 1988 Richard Mack left a job he loved to move home to AZ to run for Graham County sheriff. Nobody thought he could win, as he had never been a cop in Arizona or in his hometown and he hadn't even lived there for nearly 12 years. He won. Then he ran for re-election in 1992. He won again. Soon thereafter, the Brady bill was signed into law by Bill Clinton. Three federal agents showed up at his AZ Sheriffs Association meeting and handed each of them a document from the Dept. of the Treasury, which detailed what their ?orders? were to comply with the Brady bill. All the sheriffs were shocked and against it. However, each sheriff said there was nothing they could do about it, ?you can't fight city hall? was the frequent comment. Sheriff Mack disagreed and decided to sue the government. Everybody said he was crazy and that he could not win. Six other sheriffs from various parts of the USA joined the lawsuit. The case went all the way to the U S Supreme Court and miracle of miracles, Sheriff Mack WON! That is why there is no "Brady II", "Brady III" etc., because they were all set up and ready to run. Sheriff Mack ended that run of constitutional rights grabbing. Next time some one asks you, or you ask yourself, "what can one person do?", this is a good example. Listen to the show tonight to find out what you can do to help keep your county sheriff the highest legal authority in your county. See you there! -Scout

How did we get in this mess? Looking at the scandals of Washington and almost every other city in America, the Obamacare fiasco, the corruption plaguing our city, state and federal governments, the endless wars we have managed to get wrapped up in and the looming financial disaster facing the nation. We can only keep fooling ourselves that the money is going to show up and everything is going to be ok for only so long. At some point the bill is going to come due and no amount of printing ink over at the treasury dept. is going to fix it. How are we we going to fix this? Join me tonight to take a look at the problems facing the nation and see if there is any way possible to hack a path with a machete toward making any of this right. Hope to see you there! -Scout

Join us tonight to discuss the Camp Bullis Explosive Ordinance Disposal Unit Military Shoot and the BattleRoadUSA Run and Gun. The first event was an Appleseed shoot and the second a BattleRoadUSA event. Both events went really well and both were successful at what they were meant to accomplish. I would like to hear from folks about the ammunition availability in their areas and how it is affecting Appleseed. I would also like to hear about how folks are doing with Library seeds and any gun shows and conventions they have been working. We will also talk about land navigation, the ability to know where you are using a map and compass. Using pace counts and setting up rally points and navigation destinations. I want to apologize for last weeks email out to folks. There was no show last week because of the BattleRoad shoot, and I sent an email blast out to everyone but the email program, which I have no control over, malfunctioned and no emails were sent. I am going to set up a separate email account through one of the mail servers available commercially and will need you guys to sign up for it in order to get email reminders from now on. I will send out the sign up information in the next show reminder I send out. Look forward to seeing everyone there! -Scout

Join me tonight to talk about several topics of interest to The Rifleman as a Prepared Leader Series. We will discuss the importance of having good negotiating skills in crisis situations. How the skills of tracking is one you can not afford to be without. And we will discuss picking what to grow in your garden including a list of about a dozen very easy vegetables to start with.We will also talk about sprouting seeds for the table and the benefits of eating sprouts. And finally we will talk about how to keep things moving with Appleseed during the ammo crunch. You can do Library Seeds, trade shows, all of the stuff you would normally do to keep the program in folks minds. Don't let the low numbers get you down, keep the faith, keep spreading the word. The ammo shortage is about to run it's course and we will be back in business soon.

Join me tonight as I continue our ongoing discussion of The Rifleman as a self reliant family and community leader. Tonight we will talk about gardening, seeds, hugelculture and a lot more. We will also cover some of the items you can begin putting away now as barter goods. And, we will talk about Appleseed promotions a little more as we ran out of time last week. Call in number is 347-308-8790 Hope to see you all here! -Scout

Join me tonight for discussion of what you should have packed in your survival bag, and what you should be doing now to expand your medical preps. We will also talk about how to make sure you are getting the word out about Appleseed and how even just a few minutes a week can really help your promotions plan. But you have to have a plan first. The show ruuns 7:00-9:00PM CST and the call in number is 347-308-8790. See you there! -Scout

Join me tonight to discuss the need for considering shelter in your prep. Shelter is imperative to your survival, and shelter is not just a house. You can take shelter with you on the road or create it out of your surroundings in the wild. Whatever creates a barrier between you and the elements is considered shelter. We will also talk about the events in Colorado this last week. The recall and ouster of two Colorado Senators was brought about by Colorado citizens who were angered over the senators restrictive gun control laws which they felt had been rammed down their throats by unresponsive lawmakers. We can certainly take a cue from their play book and continue to remove lawmakers that refuse to listen to their constituents. Even better, the whole idea behind Appleseed is to get folks to understand they can prevent this from happening in the first place by organizing and preventing such lawmakers to be elected. I invite any of the Colorado citizens to call in to comment on the recall. Join us tonight 7:00PM CST and feel free to call in with any comments or questions 347-308-8790 Hope to see you there! -Scout

Join me tonight for discussion of fire starting, devices, techniques, tinder and building. Plus information on emergency lighting options available for power down situations.We will also cover Liberty Seeds in more depth. Last week I realized I had just skimmed right by them, so please call in with your reports on Liberty Seeds you have run.Finally, we will touch base on the events that seem to be leading us to a conflict in Syria. What is happening there, why this is happening and what we can try to do about it.We welcome your phone calls so that you can be a part of the show. The call in number is 347-308-8790Hope to see you there!-Scout

We have several things to discuss tonight. As water is the most important part of your preps, you need to make sure you have safe clean water you can drink. In a down grid situation, no water is safe to drink unless you yourself have purified it or it came from an unopened bottle of water. You need to be able to use any of several methods and usually combining methods to insure water purity. Also want to discuss The Appleseed "Liberty Seed" program, and the "Appleseed Neighborhood" program. With ammunition still hard to find, and expensive for a lot of folks, these two programs allow us to get out the same Appleseed message we talk to folks about at shooting Appleseeds. And I want to talk to folks about the recent documentary covering the TWA Flight 800 downing. Fifteen years after the TWA aircraft was mysteriously brought down in the Atlantic, folks are breaking their silence about the event. Government investigators, eyewitnesses, former U.S. Government Agents/employees are telling their stories of FBI falsifying information, destroying evidence (on camera) intimidating witnesses and lying over and over to senate investigators. All to protect who? To cover up What? Why? I bring this up not to simply draw attention to this one specific event, but because this has become the norm for our government. Our government holds it's citizens in such disgusting contempt that it lies in bold face font, completely sloppy and incompetent lies, they do not care if you believe them or not, because they are the government. What are YOU going to do about it? What can we do about it? The government seems to have hit upon a smashing tactic of dosing the public with mass multiple scandals since it has learned that if they just pile them up, there is no way anyone will take them seriously. We have to fix this. Hope to see you there! -Scout
