Lake City Quiet Pills Explained - Reddit Mysteries 

Update: Sept 24 Recently I have been able to link a few more things regarding this mystery that could warrant a part 2. This info doesn’t seem to change my original theory but if you guys are interested I may have been able to link one real identity to this.

"Milo" = Military Intelligence Liaison Officer

You just slid onto RU-vid like you'd always been here, didn't you?

The real conspiracy: how did Barely Sociable just appear on RU-vid with good writing, video editing, and audio? Who was he *before* he became sociable?

How terrifying must it have been to be an amature internet investigator, thinking you might go around playing an ARG or uncovering a hoax, then realising that this one might be real.

Lake City Quiet Pills sounds like an indie alternative rock band

If you get dishonorably discharged you don’t get that 20 year pension

LCQP was likely a Blackwater comms site. They had a bit of a reputation for that sort of thing. Off-books work wasn't uncommon. I know a guy who did IT for them in the early 2000s, says they had all sorts of weird sites. Some were disguised as photography, some were about pets, and some were, well, porn.

Imagine just being some redditor trying to figure out what was going on with some dude and then you uncover some hidden merc ring of professional assassins. I'd fear for my life.

The YT robots have decided.. You *will* be successful

Imagine being some average Joe who comes across Craigslist for assassins.

Angel 26 is a callsign. The "6" represents the commander. Each number represents someone's position within that organization (Army). For example, 02 would be intel (S-2), 03 would be plans (S-3), 04 would be logistics (S-4), 05 is either the head NCO (first sergeant) or the E&E (escape and evade briefer), 06 is the commander, 07 is usually either the mission commander or the person tasked with ensuring the mission is a success by leading the mission. At home, "Household 06" is the wife (she is in charge of the home, don't mess with her). On a mission, we would use our mission designated callsign "wildfire" "thunderbolt" or some stupid ass name someone came up with. The callsign becomes "Wildfire 26" or "thunderbolt 17", whatever. "Angel" sounds like someone had a sense of humor because that is only used for a really high value target (above my pay grade). Angel is also "Saint Michael" patron saint of paratroopers (airborne), which usually means you are dead or on a really f"up mission that won't end well for those involved. This isn't rocket science, just some mercs earning a paycheck with really terrible opsec (hiding on a kiddie porn site, what were they thinking). The whole "DUI" part meant don't attract attention to yourself (police, security guards, nosy people). The "party" is the mission.

I was thinking while listening to this story about my best friend's dad. No he isn't a creepazoid or pedophile, but he served in Vietnam working with telecommunications. He has just retired from IT at a very prestigious university. Even though he is 74, the man got in on the ground floor of technology and was well versed in all aspects. I work with medical systems and will bring him questions I cannot answer. The university keeps him on as a contractor because he and two other guys (I'm sure there were others) built the whole system. He's never told us how much they pay him per job, but I do know he gets about $2,000 every time they call.

I don't think he was lying about his age. 70 and 79 are just one keystroke away. Typis happen.

“Why would a group of adults need to be reminded not to DUI” You clearly don’t know many people in the military lol

A few things here: One, never underestimate Stolen Valor. These people build up a backstory and memorize it, get as many details worked out as they can so that when people question and poke holes into it, they can supply details that seem totally legit to counter. "You were at D-Day? Bullshit, you were fourteen!" "I looked mature for my age" or "ok, so I'm older than I told you. Sue me." If this guy was involved in contracting/wet work, especially as a mentor in his later years, I wouldn't be surprised I he added to his "legend" to get the kids to admire him all the more. Second, "quiet pills" are a common euphemism for bullets, and I am most familiar with them being used when talking about pedophiles and their disposal via vigilantism. Again, fitting if it's a military contractor/wet work group. Third, if you've spent any time around military guys, especially military guys on the more . . . secure side of the house, the instructions for the party make a hell of a lotta sense. Between the no IDs, no in-person desk check-in, and unsecured phones, it tells me it's a group of guys who don't want to be placed in a room with each other by a paper trail, and the comment about the phones means that they'll need to be wary of using the phones if at all because that's another way they can be pegged to that location by law enforcement or any agency trying to track them. And the comment at the end about no DUIs? Yeah, I've known guys in their upper forties edging on retirement that needed to be told that (and then went and did it anyways). To me, the whole thing sounds like a legit party for a bunch of privacy minded military types to remember a fallen comrade and mentor.

Not sure if this has been mentioned in comments or not, but SnoopSnoo ran into an API error in May of 2019 which caused the site to no longer update user info. As much as I love a good mystery, it's pretty likely that both Milo and Angel showing that they had last posted in May of 2019 was due to this API error.

I haven’t seen anyone point it out, but the user name “Angel 2-6” or “2-6” is likely a Platoon Leader’s callsign. Usual infantry and most of the Army follows a pretty normalized callsign convention: 2, being second platoon, and 6 being his position as a platoon leader. Angel would be his company’s name, so the callsign becomes Angel 2-6. For example... a Platoon Sergeant serving with “Dog” company, 1st platoon would have a callsign of Dog 1-7. Usually PSGs have a 7, PLs have a 6, PLT Medic a 9 and so on... Angel 2-6 was probably an officer in the Army. If you were to hunt down an “Angel” company and find the PLT leader that matches service time, you could theoretically find who 2-6 was/is.

Makes me wonder if the cat and the girl next door was code, too.

I like how confident this guy is in the idea that a 70 something year old stating on the internet that he's 70 COMPLETELY debunks his age and we should almost just stop researching lol

Lake City is an ammo brand. Pill is a euphemism for pistol bullets in American gun culture. Quiet Pills are subsonic handgun bullets that are used with silencers to eliminate dogs or other animals that might alert a people to the presence of sneaky commando types. Can be used on guards as well to stop them from raising an alarm. In the Vietnam era, the typical handgun used for this was called a "hushpuppy". Given the pro-pedo propaganda in arts and entertainment of the Vietnam era. I would think the user may have been around for that war. And lied about being older because Vietnam was an unpopular war made more unpopular in modern times through revisionist history. But WWII was and is a popular war.

Lake City makes the majority of the US military's ammo. In the firearm and military community, bullets are often refereed to as pills. Lake City Quiet Pills is 100% referring to ammo. When Angel 2-6 says he has been dispensing Lake City Quiet Pills since 1968, he means he has been shooting at people since 1968. I'm guessing Vietnam Vet.

I want the narrator to read me mission objectives through a walkie talky

That’s it! Binge watch complete. You, sir, are a legend. The only channel I’ve ever binge watched every single episode of. Well done. You deserve so many more subscribers.

Couple of points. The assassination happened at a hotel called "Al-Bustan", not at a Merriott. The wikipedia article also says that the assassins stayed at a number of different hotels to avoid suspicion, so it also doesn't fit. They additionally communicated with a phone number in Austria, and used encrypted personal devices, so them fucking up so badly that these messages could be accessed by anyone on the website is unlikely. I would say it's just a weird coincidence, plus everything seems to point at Mossad, which also makes a lot of sense because their target was Hamas. Would be interesting to find out what Marriott hotel has "46" in the address. I looked at Missouri and Pennsylvania before coming to the realisation that the links to these states are actually paper-thin and its no guarantee that this group is based anywhere near them. Anyways neither them nor Dubai has any that fit.I don't doubt that they're PMC and that there might have been more to this "party" then was explicitly stated in the messages, but I am not at all convinced that the assassination is linked.

The name "Dutch" refers to the most bad ass cinematic mercenary of my generation. Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer. It's a very specific inside joke and it makes me lean towards this actually being legitimate.

I straight up thought this channel had been on RU-vid for like five years like other spooky channels, and was like, cool, time to binge watch-oh.

Quiet pills? Bullets Flowers? Children Party? Assassination Hotel? Trivago

When I first came across your videos, I was hooked! I wanted more! To my surprise this was your first video ever. How can somebody make such good content from the start.

“Why would a group of adults needed to be reminded to not DUI” Well in the military every Friday there is a safety brief to not DUI, not rape anyone, not do drugs, not to beat your wife, or your dog etc etc etc and that goes on for maybe 10-20 minutes

"Quiet Pills - a.k.a. bullets, particularly when used to assassinate leaders who try to speak out against a larger corporation, group, or government. i.e. 'silencing'"

its hard to believe its only been about 2 years since you made this video, been here since the beginning and still love the content!

“An old site called ‘Fark’” God damn, that made me feel old.

Where the hell did you just appear from all of a sudden with this outrageously interesting content?? Your audio is so nice too, great narrating voice. Jeez.

OK, so there is an Artist called "Lake City" and has an album called "Quiet pills". Songs include, "quiet pills", "26"(two six),"Religion of peace","January 19","hotels","Extra Judical", and "Alternate Truth". I found them after searching for LCQP, their music is on Deezer and it seems to be all instrumental. The album was released in 2017.

Stumbled on your channel earlier today and I watched every one of them. Excellent work

I'm addicted to your videos man. Absolutely love the content. All the people at work think I'm crazy because I'm telling him about what I'm watching. Keep on keeping on homie

MILO = Military intelligence liaison officer & “quiet pills” are a referral to bullets

Imagine having your ashes spread behind a holiday inn in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Another great video. This is one is my fav as it leaves so much unanswered and open ended. I do like the "quiet pill" analogy for ammo though. Keep 'em coming.

Can’t stop binge watching all your videos, such high quality content.

I clicked for the title, stayed for the voice.

why does his voice sound like chills if he was normal

Wow! LOVE your uploads! Can't believe it took me so long to find your channel! 💯

I love your content, especially your voice. It’s very calming but keeps me engaged

shows Milo's ashes map eye goes directly to "Beef Jerky Outlet"

That moving gray background is so mesmerizing

Had no idea this channel was new, watched almost all of your videos without knowing it. I WANT MORE.

Another really interesting story from BS... thanks for the content! This one I was aware of before, but I''ve meant to comment in the past on some of your other shows and haven't, so this time I'm making sure! Hope you keep finding cool subjects and are able to generate memorable content for years to come.

The fact that he said his age was 70 could have been a typo. 9 and 0 are very close buttons in the keyboard and he might have wanted to type 79

I was gonna watch this and be like oh, he’s grown so much since he started but your first upload is just as cohesive as your others. How do you suddenly pop out of nowhere with content so amazing?

Love your channel. Every video is great. Excellent content!

Never seen your channel before, I literally went, “woah” when that voice happened. That’s a gift dude.

16:47 an assassination for a birthday party? Priceless. For everything else, there’s MasterCard.

Just found your channel now and I’m so glad! This is super interesting

Sounds a bit like the core idea of video-game Hotline Miami :) Recruiting veterans through non-conventional ways for accomplishing shady tasks that ultimately lead to a higher purpose. I know there are more layers in the original Hotline Miami theme, such as recruiting the veterans which fought Russians in a fictional war, thus having their motives fueled by the rage against their ex-enemy, but still, it resembles a bit. On another note, thank you very much for presenting this internet mystery. I have recently discovered your channel and it really is one of the finest out there. Have a good one :D

So Barely Sociable joined in 27 Mar, 2019. Suddenly blew up recently. After digging i found this video... there's gotta be a sinister connection here, somewhere.

"A veteran" oh that's awesome "Moderator of r/jailbait" oh

The voordinated attack on Mahmbhuhh is beyond a real life thrillr. Wirth a watch.

Awesome video! Gave me the chills when we learned about the assassination lining up with the chat.

This background music is making me nostalgic

when he said 70 he might've meant he was in his 70s, not actually 70

I live in Independence, MO, aka the 'quiet pill' factory. Some nights growing up, I've heard them testing ammo. Apparently, because some ammo can be faulty, so they test specific shipments or something like that. Seeing the title of the video, I suspected that the Lake City facility would be mentioned. It isn't an uncommon saying to hear one talk of "quiet pills" in reference to gun ammunition. Just a bit of extra info from a local.

In 2000 I had a 60+ year old man in our digital media class (Full Sail, Winter Park) and about 5 years later I had found that this old man was not only active in the programming world in Orlando, but very dedicated. So all though I agree it's very unique, it happens. That guy wild be over 80 years old now. Not sure if he's still on his game, but five years out of school and he was. Almost 70 years old at that point

Really bold of you to pronounce Imgur like that my dude

My ad was literally just some dude pouring hot water on ice

This channel so intriguing. How it goes into more than just surface level details I bet it takes a lot of work. I also like that it doesn't just cover ARGs which aren't that interesting to me. Keep it up Barely Sociable!

Bless you for giving a source for the intro music. I've been looking for that track for months!

Interesting; I'd never heard of this "internet mystery" before. Of course, I've never heard of most of them. :-) But the phrase "Lake City Quiet Pills" needed no explaining to me, being former military - Lake City is the producer for the vast majority of small arms ammo used by the US military, and "Lake City Quiet Pills" has been military slang for bullets since at least shortly after WWII. Amusingly, one of my last jobs had LCAAP as a fairly frequent customer, for equipment used in ammunition/armor testing.

I just discovered this channel; My speaker's bass is having the time of its life

Oof ... Your final bit of evidence is soooo juicy!! Great video 💜

nexpo just made a video about this.. shoutout to you the original 🤘🏾

Dude has the low gritty voice that I aspire to achieve.

I feel like the “expense message” was the pay outs for the members of the hit.

this is my favourite channel to binge watch

An oddball fact about the lake city ammunition plant was that they produced some .30-06 ammo for the Bay of Pigs invasion, which is pretty unrelated but interesting.

You gonna blow up bud. Here it comes hope you're ready. RU-vid algorithm is loving ya.

Honestly, this is one of the creepiest reddit mysteries I've heard of.

FASCINATING! And I love your voice. Thank you for this.

For some reason I keep coming back to this video.

My dad is in his sixties and he's pretty tech savvy. Old people being good with computers isn't as uncommon as most people think

You are a fascinating person. I thought you'd be another shitty reddit guy and just came for the base story, but you go really in depth. A+ dood

I’ve never heard of this unsolved mystery before. What is extremely weird is that someone posted on his account 9 months ago (December 2022). That is very strange.

Nice one, Barely. Intriguing side view into the world of military contracting.

“Religion of peace” being a reference to Islam and a Hamas leader getting assassinated seems like a connection that should be pointed out... unless it was already and I missed it

On the note of age inconsistencies, many old borderline senile people have trouble keeping track of their specific age suprisingly. There was this old man from my hometown who would say he was anywhere between 90 and 110. When he ended up passing, it turned out that he was 103.

You must be someone really special, Mister! Can't wait to see what else you have for us!!

thanks. sometimes you will find something you didnt know and its totally interesting. i like your channel !

This guy is like the perfect blend of scare theatre and nexpo, I like it

That pill in the thumbnail is 40mg vyvanse. I can tell you, when you’re prescribed it, it genuinely feels like you’re being given a quiet pill.

oh no.. i watched all of your videos.. I was eating them up non stop.. now I have to subscribe to see more D:

incredibly quality video for one of your first

The biggest question out of all of this is what happened to big tommy and stu??

The song is ‘Gnossienne: No. 1’ by ‘ Erik Satie’ for any one who’s interested

Such an interesting mystery. Also the music you had playing is identical to the opening notes of the Clock Tower theme from Majora's Mask, and it was extremely unsettling to me to hear just the opening notes on repeat, and not the full tune xI

Glad I found your channel, subbed

You know that party invitation is an open contract when you see it.

“Why would adults need to be reminded not to DUI?” Who do you think does the most DUIs? Lol

just come across your channel and im hooked

This is some crazy shit. Your channel has 100% choice content. Very good work
