Wasted Ammo Podcast: Guns | Gear | Reviews | Training | Preparedness

In today's episode, D. Shock and Mr. Pixel discuss the "Fact Sheet" released by the new administration and their goals for addressing "the Gun Violence Public Health Epidemic". Take some headache medicine and grab your stress ball. Enjoy!    

In today's episode, we update everyone on where we have been for the past couple of months and talk a little bit about the future of Wasted Ammo. Part of that future is an off-shoot podcast called Wasted Ammo Aftershock which will be hosted by Mr. Pixel and David Shock. Both are long-time contributors in the Wasted Ammo community and we have them on the show today to talk about their new adventure into podcasting. Enjoy!

Once or twice a year we do a show all about defensive gun use, as we feel the need to continually prove the main-stream media wrong when it comes to their rhetoric on how dangerous firearms are. Last year over 21 million firearms were purchased and 8.4 million of those were from first time gun owners. If 2020 proved anything, it was that the government wasn't going to save you and it was up to you and you alone to protect yourself - here are some of those stories.

2020 was a hard year. Everyone on the planet felt it's effects but I think it was a good wake up call for Americans as it showed them just how fragile the system really is. Hopefully this spawns a new generation of preppers but for those of us who were prepared, we still learned some valuable lessons and takeaways that we can use going forward - because I think we are going to need it. I think 2020 that was just the beginning. I believe we are in for a decade of hurt, especially if you value freedom over safety. So the lessons learned in 2020 will be needed in the years to come. In today's episode, we share what we learned.

On this podcast we have talked about timeline defense, we have talked about the 5 stages of a violent attack, we’ve talked about being situationally aware and being deliberate as we go about our day as to not be an easy victim – and if we are smart and if we are aware, we will most likely never need to use our firearm. But what if that doesn’t work. What if that low probability, high consequence event does occur? What can we expect? What does the data show? Let's find out.

It's been a long time coming but today we are going to do a deep dive into Bitcoin. We all plan, prepare, and fantasize about the complete collapse of society, where there is no rule of law and how we are going to go back to a simpler time where it’s back to the barter system and a gold/silver standard - when in reality, we are probably going to be dealing with a very complicated, cyberpunk dystopian future where privacy is dead, all individuals are tracked, big tech controls the flow of information, cash is outlawed and everyone’s finances are scrutinized, and those deemed undesirables are locked out of the economy all together. Sounds a bit familiar right? Yeah, a lot of this is already happening now and it’s just going to get worse but Bitcoin fixes this and I’ll show you how in today's episode.

Today on the Wasted Ammo podcast we deep dive into the gooey grey and talk about the laws and consequences of using a gun for self defense. If you truly believe your life is in danger then it doesn't really matter but 2020 has shown us several sticky situations where people used a firearm to deter potential violence and were charged. So what does the traditional self defense laws require from us?  What is the standard that we hold ourselves to? Let's find out.

Every Wednesday at 9:30 PM EST we go LIVE to hang out with our listeners, drink some beer, and talk about some man shit. This week we talk about the murder of George Floyd. This past Monday night, a video was released which showed George Floyd pinned on the ground by Minneapolis police officer and it clearly shows Floyd struggling for air and begging for his life. Eventually Floyd looses consciousnesses and despite pleas from witnesses, the officers never check his pulse or show any concern for his well being. Floyd died on route to the hospital. All four of the officers involved in his arrest have subsequently been fired and one has been charged with 3rd degree murder. What are our thoughts on this whole situation? Do the police have a warrior complex issue? Is racism systemic? Let's find out. Enjoy. Show-notes can be found at Wastedammo.com/305 Become a Black Site member at Patreon.com/wastedammo

Is it really true that the AR-15, a popular firearm owned by millions of Americans, is a unique threat to public safety, so dangerous that it deserves to be banned or even confiscated by the federal government? Not according to a decade worth of data on crime and homicide data compiled by the CDC, FBI and the BJS.  A new App from Clearview allows law enforcement and security personnel to instantly identify you by just a single photo. The app works by scraping facial data from Facebook, Venmo, Youtube, and other social media sites. Are we headed for a Cyberpunk-Esq society? How can we have a right to privacy in this type of future? When faced with an armed intruder or even a mass shooter we always say that we can use numbers to our advantage. A lone person bent on killing as many people as possible can’t possibly succeed if we all decide to fight and that is exactly how one family from  Louisiana survived an armed home invasion. They decided they weren’t going to be victims and they fought back, took his gun and killed him. To wrap up this episode we cover a fun article that reported 5000 US troops drank Iceland Capital’s entire beer supply in one weekend following a NATO-led military exercise. Enjoy!

Training Company provide services to military, law enforcement, private security and students interested in self-defense, conducting well over 50 courses a year in over 40 locations.

Recently, he spearheaded the 2A rally in DC and continues to fight for our right to keep and bear arms in a professional and responsible manner. Who is Rob?

This week on the Wasted Ammo Podcast, we discover that Kyle is in fact Santa because he came in bearing gifts! As with every new gun purchase, we spend the first part of the show showing off the Springfield Armory M1A SOCOM 16 that Kyle gifted to Steve and the 1943 1911 he gave to Eric. Kyle had the SOCOM 16 sent to Chris Steele of Lutter Custom Guns for a custom, two tone digital camo paint job and it looks amazing! After all the gun loving we get straight into the show and talk about a couple different articles but the meat of today's episode is the Miami-Dade Police Department shootout on a busy highway with two armed robbers who hijacked a UPS driver. Police officers engaged the robbers when they were forced to stop in heavy highway traffic, using innocent bystander's cars to shield themselves from incoming rounds. After it was all over, four people were dead- the two robbers, the UPS driver who was taken hostage and a motorist stuck at the intersection. It was a bad situation for everyone involved but was the course of action taken by police the correct one? Did the police jeopardize the lives of innocent bystanders? Are they held to the same standard as citizen defenders? Lets find out. Enjoy! Show-notes can be found at Wastedammo.com/290 Become a Black Site member at Patreon.com/wastedammo
