My Thoughts On The Self Reliance Festival | episode 255
Join me today as I talk about my thoughts on the self reliance festival. My family and I just returned from this year’s self-reliance festival in Camden Tennessee at the SOE compound. We loved it. It was our first time going but definitely not our last. 
There were so many great speakers and demos going on there. There’s no way you could have left there without a lot more knowledge and being hyped to go out there and do things. 
I was very excited to see some old faces and meet some new ones. I have met Jack Spirko and John Willis before but it has been more than 10 years. I was still drinking when I went to Jack’s place so that’s at least more than 11 years ago.
Camping was fun as always. This was my daughter’s second time camping and she loved it.  There were so many kids for her to play with while we were there she had an absolute blast. 
The real hero of the festival was Toolman Tim’s wife who put on the Self Reliance Kids program. She did an amazing job. 

In Episode 54 of The Kershner Files, Dave provides the standard updates for PMs, Survival Realty, and state specific gun shows. Before that though, he discusses an email from Trucker Steve and an article from Ammo Squared regarding sight pictures and run and gun events. After the usual updates, Dave starts the show by discussing the latest happenings in the election and the lefts  continued efforts to steal the Presidency. If they’re successful we’ll likely see the start of CWII and/or WWIII. Dave manages to insert some ‘good news’ with the return of 2019 pricing for Thanksgiving. He closes the show by discussing the effects of EMPs and how long we can expect the loss of electricity. Articles/topics discussed:

Join me today as I talk all about scavenging vs looting. I recently saw this post on Facebook that said when is it ok to start looting. The poster was speaking about after the SHTF. But the post definitely went over like a lead balloon. There is never a time and place for looting. There is a place for scavenging though. And there is absolutely a difference. 
The definition of looting is: To steal goods from a place, typically during a war or riot. Scavaging is defined as searching for and collecting (anything usable) from discarded waste.
Breaking the windows out and taking something that is clearly not discarded waste is not scavenging. Some of it is grey. I talk about abandoned houses in this episode. I’ve seen videos and seen them in person. Houses in the middle of the woods that look like people just got up and left and never came back. 
Time is another factor. If something has been abandoned for 20 years I feel that is scavenging and not looting. The poor people in the affected flood areas right now want to return to their homes and would be looting. 

In Episode 191, Dave makes a couple trips around the world in his topics and discussions regarding the latest and greatest news from the week that was. First up is DoD Directive 5240.01 changes that allow the military to shoot American citizens and proposed changes to the National Defense Authorization Act which automatically registers women for the draft. From there, he discusses the marxist’s lack of an apology to the American people for covering up the potato’s mental decline. After that, Dave takes a hard look at the war footing all of these countries like Israel, Iran, China, Russia, and North Korea seem to be on and posits the theory that WWIII is probably inevitable. He closes the show discussing election polling, Israel’s overnight attack against Iran, the EU picking a fight with the UK., and illegal immigration opposition is apparently pure racism.  Articles discussed:
