What a Hell of a Way to Die


Sep 12, 2019

Some recent developments in the US military that you should know about: first, the President has decided to defund military spending in order to build his stupid racism wall. While on one hand we would call defunding the military a good thing, we would reject that given the fact the money (which was earmarked for things like building maintenance and fire safety) is going towards a stupid project that sucks.

We also talk about a surprise revelation that some (relatively low-ranking) members of the Navy SEALs have been disciplined for their unit’s misbehavior. That said, our argument stands that the SEALs need to be disbanded because they’re out of control. And honestly, why stop there? This episode includes Francis’ argument that the Marines should go away, too.

This week’s bonus features an inaugural feature where Francis explains some how-tos on things that are useful to know. You’ve heard about active shooter training (and if you’re a parent, the hellworld of America is making your kids go through it), but did you ever wonder how the military goes about it? Well, here’s your MILSPEC active-shooter training as briefed by SSG Horton, your training NCO. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/29832909
