WARRIOR MINDSET Lt Col Jeff Cooper USMC 

Armdrag86 my dad is one from his generation I tlk to him everyday to stay sharp

Thought process not weapons!!!!

First guy I’ve say you learn to shoot at home at squirrel!! Not armed forces!

But the 45 will kill you even if you're hit in the pinky. Lol

Tyranny is defined as that which the goverment is allowed to have/ do, but the citizenry isn't. And you know what they founding fathers thought about tyranny.. It is *the* reason our founding fathers left England, to start a new life in this new land, in the first place. That's not to mention the things they did to finally break the chains which held them to the English crown

The last 3 years?

@@dongray9852are you referring to the demtard wild goose chase where they did NOTHING other than piss away tax dollars chasing a spectre while their candidate was REALLY on a Russian payroll ?

What happens then? You're looking at it.

What happens when the government doesn't like your vote? They elect Biden through massive fraud.

My pleasure CT. One thing I've discovered is that most people that join the Police or the Military are NOT motivated by skill of arms or the return use of force scale. I was incorrect to assume that all members are naturally interested in being their very best at dealing with highly stressful situations.

Marine Corps

I agree, but I respectfully suggest that 58:50 is especially important as well.

"The Hunters of Kentucky" is a great song, referring to the Kentucky/Pennsylvania/long rifles the Americans used. Being rifled it allowed longer range, more accurate shots.

Most people find themselves trapped within the denial mentality because they have been conditioned to believe that the law enforcement community / government will be there for them at the moment of truth. Its a blatant lie that has been accepted into the common vernacular. Might as well believe that Superman is real.

I don't know when this speech was given, being in black and white makes it seem ancient but it would seem that the arguments used by gun grabbers to infringe on our God given rights haven't really changed.

I am only seeing this particular video today, but what an INCREDIBLE, and soberingly simple explanation. THANK YOU. Stay safe!

HAHA not a single liberal made it past the first half though...

Looks like the mid 1980's?

he mentioned Bill Clinton so 1993 to 2001, i would guess on the earlier side....

3:43 He refers to the North Hollywood bank robbery of 1997, so someone after that.

Tom Burgess Semper Fi

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson

Seems like the 90s.

Early '90s, leading up to the "Crime Bill" a.k.a. the Clinton Gun Ban that he or someone else referenced during his speech or the Q&A.

3:43 After the 1997 North Hollywood bank robbery.

Vince Foster

1997 based on his comments about the North Hollywood shootout.

The video looks like it's in the 50's

If you have the opportunity - absolutely however when seconds count the police are minutes away.

bruce bartup Lt Col Cooper was speaking to a room full of surgeons and physicians.

yes, I did get that, thanks. And still my comment remains. but thanks for the response. I wonder . . . would you be interested in a little mediation? A young man of somewhat alt-right persuasion and I are engaging a formal discussion on "what are the prospects for peace on youtube" we're trying for a real cooperative constructive exploration. I need at least one ideally two mediators who can be mostly inert and consult sensibly and intervene if necessary. A feminist friend called Natalie G Alford might help me stay away from feminist thought crime but as she identifies black she will fine the young man quite intimidating, I think he might respect you. In case you don't know the problem is internet harassment directed some say by figures such as Sargon of Akkad of UK or Bearing of Australia. Harassment that recently chased Natalie off RU-vid (one I spotted, not for publication - certainly not repetition to Natalie ) read "who else wants to smash this arrogant bitch in the face with a ball-pein" 20 llikes IIRC before Natallie shut her channel down. The 'joke' being that it isn't actually a threat so the people who do this stuff THINK it's legal whereas a 'reasonable person' would say intimidation 'placing a state of fear, if persistent, harassment.. her 'crime' was to sing in delight when D. Trump turned away from a campaign rally in Chicago her home town. I'm afraid the young man I'm trying to talk to will hold that free speech is an absolute right and 'snowflakes' who don't like that can get lost, including Natalie. The gys that do this stuff get their news from the same sources you seem to be using. That is cyber warfare - and I let you guess which country is behind it. This is the warrior mentality turned online. Wanting to kill, preferably by words. So this is why I worry so much about you. You are 10ft down the slippery slope, and the bottom of that slope is perfectly will educated sons of surgeons and physicists threatening black, muslim and female, trans and other people. So that is the person I'm going to try to debate, who I have to keep off the topic of free speech, or talk gently in abstract. Maple Leaf Up?

Internet harassment? Were you serious when you posted this months ago?

"internet harassment directed some say by figures such as Sargon of Akkad of UK or Bearing of Australia" - I think you are very much mistaken. They didn't direct harassment to anybody. It's one thing to comment about someone to an audience (news media do that all the time), it's quite another to say "go and harass these people for me", which is not what they are doing. And indeed, Sargon of Akkad would explicitly tell his viewers not to go after any of the people he mentioned in his videos. What their viewers do in their own time is the responsibility of those viewers. Assuming what she is saying is true and she had done no wrong, if nasty comments are enough to get her to shut down her channel, I'm not sure how she's going to handle real life. It just sounds like she made a public comment, and people made some public comments back to her. Not everyone is going to like you, and sometimes hurtful comments have some truth to it. Free speech should be an absolute right (as long as it's not a cal to violence), because you have no idea the slippery slope speech control becomes.

He doesn't really talk much about "fear". He mentions becoming aware of an immediate threat against one's life or safety, and NOT being too afraid to react effectively. So I'm not sure how the OP could be under the impression that Cooper was talking about fearful people being ready to kill. He doesn't even say that you should get a gun to feel better about yourself. The cops who missed at close range had guns, but were too stressed out by the situation to react effectively. He says you should get a better mindset or attitude to feel better about yourself. Recall the story of the unarmed woman taking the robber's gun out of his waistband and shooting him with it. She was brave BEFORE she even acquired the gun. And THAT is what he was talking about--gun or no gun.
