00:00:00.050 --> 00:00:04.580
Welcome to the Programming Lions Podcast, free beer for deportations.
00:00:05.150 --> 00:00:10.039
Well, this episode features Mark Fitzpatrick, the proud owner, owner of Old State Saloon.
00:00:11.285 --> 00:00:16.054
He's got some very interesting holiday promotions going viral, so let's get into it.
00:00:23.304 --> 00:00:25.434
Mark Fitzpatrick from Old State Saloon.
00:00:25.434 --> 00:00:26.304
Welcome back.
00:00:26.304 --> 00:00:27.625
It's good to see you again.
00:00:27.625 --> 00:00:31.045
It's been maybe a little bit of over a year since we talked to you last.
00:00:31.410 --> 00:00:32.664
it's good to be back with you guys.
00:00:33.689 --> 00:00:35.789
I just was commenting the boys are growing like weeds.
00:00:35.789 --> 00:00:39.664
I said, to see that, and I'm glad to be back on your show.
00:00:40.854 --> 00:00:41.125
Yeah.
00:00:41.125 --> 00:00:41.545
Good.
00:00:41.545 --> 00:00:41.875
Good.
00:00:42.234 --> 00:00:44.424
Well, let's get right into the meat, huh?
00:00:44.664 --> 00:00:45.625
All right, let's do it.
00:00:45.924 --> 00:00:51.024
So I heard that old state has had some new promotions going viral.
00:00:51.384 --> 00:00:52.765
Can you tell us more about that?
00:00:53.265 --> 00:01:05.704
Well, it started out I think last Saturday it was, or Friday, and I posted that, you know, the, the issue of the immigration has been getting heated and I have my stance on that.
00:01:05.704 --> 00:01:08.435
And, and I think it's important for people to.
00:01:09.019 --> 00:01:13.280
Think about this and what we can do, you know, as normal people.
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:29.420
And so I gave out an incentive to people, to the public of offering free beer for a month, for anybody who could give information to ICE that would ultimately lead to the deportation of a illegal out of Idaho.
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:41.454
That kind of posted couple people sharing, couple big accounts sharing, and then I saw Department of Home, department of Homeland Security shared it, and I just about like lost it.
00:01:41.459 --> 00:01:48.049
It was so funny because the way they shared it was just, it was really clever with the, you know, the s were holding the beer, but.
00:01:48.930 --> 00:01:49.290
Yeah.
00:01:49.409 --> 00:01:49.769
Yeah.
00:01:50.340 --> 00:01:50.730
Wow.
00:01:50.730 --> 00:01:52.019
Yeah, so that blew up.
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:52.950
That's gotten, that's crazy.
00:01:52.950 --> 00:01:58.950
Millions and millions of views now, and I imagine what also blew up is like backlash, right?
00:01:59.254 --> 00:02:01.775
A lot of backlash and a lot of, and a lot of support.
00:02:01.924 --> 00:02:12.125
So, you know, we've had more, more than last time, you know, with the heterosexual awesomeness thing we've had more threats to burn down the building.
00:02:12.155 --> 00:02:13.634
Maybe there's more arsonists out there now.
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.509
But I think it's this particular topic actually.
00:02:17.729 --> 00:02:26.050
You have a lot more people involved with, organizations like Antifa BLM which we can get into later, some of their comments.
00:02:26.050 --> 00:02:34.099
But and those people who follow those organizations, you know, it appears like they tend to be people who think about violence.
00:02:34.985 --> 00:02:40.955
First, or, you know, as a, as a decent solution to something they don't like in life.
00:02:41.004 --> 00:02:50.715
Somebody's free speech is bothering me, so, let's go burn down the building that that person's in and some of'em even suggesting that they would like me to be inside of it when it burns down.
00:02:51.344 --> 00:02:54.284
So yeah, everything from, you know, from that, we have a lot of that.
00:02:54.284 --> 00:02:59.215
There's a lot of attacks on my business some of which I don't even wanna explain.
00:02:59.810 --> 00:03:00.860
It's nonstop.
00:03:00.990 --> 00:03:03.509
We have a lot of people sending messages.
00:03:03.569 --> 00:03:06.060
Again, they're very threatening.
00:03:06.129 --> 00:03:27.969
There's a lot of gay porn and pornography being sent because I, I find that to be a very, demonic spiritual thing like that just seems to be the thing that people who don't like a Christian or don't like somebody who stands for morality, if they don't like somebody who loves the Lord, they wanna send them images and things like that.
00:03:28.460 --> 00:03:29.900
So there's been a lot of that.
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.139
It's also kind of ironic.
00:03:31.139 --> 00:03:33.300
They almost like are suggesting that it's wrong,
00:03:34.370 --> 00:03:34.909
yeah.
00:03:34.969 --> 00:03:37.699
Well, yeah, that's the whole thing when they, I get called gay.
00:03:37.789 --> 00:03:38.810
Oh, you're so gay.
00:03:39.254 --> 00:03:41.384
Never met anybody as gay as you are.
00:03:41.384 --> 00:03:41.835
And then it's
00:03:42.025 --> 00:03:42.085
not
00:03:42.134 --> 00:03:44.534
like, you know, if gay is a good thing, why?
00:03:44.564 --> 00:03:45.914
Why do you say that?
00:03:45.965 --> 00:03:46.145
Like
00:03:46.245 --> 00:03:46.455
Yeah.
00:03:46.455 --> 00:03:50.324
Why would they use it as a slur or a Yeah, it's interesting.
00:03:51.294 --> 00:03:52.639
Do do some haters.
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:56.539
Compare this to the, like the, not see Germany with the snitches.
00:03:57.129 --> 00:03:58.210
I've gotten a lot of that.
00:03:58.389 --> 00:04:03.159
Of course, anytime that's the left, you know, when they don't like something that the right is doing.
00:04:03.849 --> 00:04:06.400
They, that's one of the key words that they use there.
00:04:06.449 --> 00:04:09.180
'Cause they, they hope when they do this, they're trying to shut you down.
00:04:09.629 --> 00:04:12.180
When people speak out for truth.
00:04:12.180 --> 00:04:15.689
The way that the left shuts you down is they name call you.
00:04:15.740 --> 00:04:19.399
And they want it to be something that bothers you inside.
00:04:19.790 --> 00:04:22.649
So they'll use the Nazi word bigot.
00:04:22.704 --> 00:04:27.535
Nazi Hitler, they're about the most dehumanizing, evil things you can sort of associate to a person.
00:04:27.535 --> 00:04:28.675
And so that works for them,
00:04:28.709 --> 00:04:29.279
Right.
00:04:29.790 --> 00:04:30.120
Yeah.
00:04:30.170 --> 00:04:33.800
The other thing is a lot of allegations of, of racism.
00:04:34.259 --> 00:04:39.480
East Los Angeles Spanish Coalition or something like that.
00:04:39.810 --> 00:04:45.300
They sent me a cease and desist letter, and it was like very, I'm, I mean, I don't know if they're serious.
00:04:45.329 --> 00:04:46.259
I think they're serious.
00:04:46.259 --> 00:04:51.720
Like, I'm supposed to stop my free speech because it's, it's upsetting them and they're gonna alert.
00:04:52.709 --> 00:04:58.610
Hundreds or thousands of people to potentially like, stop or attack my business in some way.
00:04:58.680 --> 00:04:58.980
Yeah.
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:09.709
And it's, it's, it's like, wow, you are in this country and you're saying it's okay for illegals to be here and.
00:05:10.504 --> 00:05:15.634
I am a citizen of the country and I have a constitutional right to free speech, and you're saying I can't have that.
00:05:15.634 --> 00:05:20.435
So you're, it's like you're basically saying you're not even supposed to be here or who you're representing is not supposed to be here.
00:05:20.704 --> 00:05:23.074
And you're telling me that I can't have my first amendment.
00:05:23.074 --> 00:05:25.194
It's so that's just pretty crazy.
00:05:25.194 --> 00:05:31.055
But he did ask, he did ask me if I wanted to go on a podcast with'em, and I said yes.
00:05:31.055 --> 00:05:32.644
So I'm going on their podcast tonight.
00:05:32.675 --> 00:05:32.894
Oh
00:05:33.035 --> 00:05:33.514
we'll see.
00:05:33.545 --> 00:05:34.564
We'll see how that goes.
00:05:34.970 --> 00:05:35.899
But no, I don't.
00:05:35.899 --> 00:05:38.480
We will see what happens when they get to hear the truth from somebody, you know?
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:44.509
But also, if they're willing to talk reasonably, we might come away from that podcast and learn, you know, something about each other.
00:05:44.509 --> 00:05:48.475
So I'm not, I'm not gonna make an assumption that there's no way it would be a good thing.
00:05:49.574 --> 00:05:49.814
Right.
00:05:49.814 --> 00:05:50.024
Yeah.
00:05:50.024 --> 00:05:50.985
Well, best of luck.
00:05:51.045 --> 00:05:54.975
What so this is obviously, it's a controversial topic in America right now.
00:05:54.975 --> 00:05:59.925
What inspired you to go forward with this plan through the holidays
00:05:59.954 --> 00:06:10.995
the free beer for the I for the Helping Ice, I mean that, that's just basically a, I don't know, it wasn't really a title for it, but once it took off, I was like, wow, we should make a whole season season out of this.
00:06:11.699 --> 00:06:19.360
So we call it Merry Snitchmas And so you're snitching on illegals who are not supposed to be here to ice.
00:06:19.420 --> 00:06:33.509
And so we, we have some specials that are going on through, through December that are, you know, manly American Mondays, which is gonna be any male dressed like a man who who basically will support ice and and help ice.
00:06:34.274 --> 00:06:39.615
And then ladies, I'm telling Tuesdays it's buy one, get one for the ladies.
00:06:39.665 --> 00:06:45.074
And then we have whistleblower Wednesdays that's heterosexual couples that are Patriots.
00:06:45.444 --> 00:06:53.055
We just want to give them 10% off encouraging them if they're not already to get married and have American babies.
00:06:53.084 --> 00:06:54.615
'cause we need more American babies.
00:06:55.285 --> 00:06:55.944
Yes, we do.
00:06:56.634 --> 00:06:56.964
Yes.
00:06:56.995 --> 00:06:57.204
Yeah.
00:06:57.264 --> 00:06:59.035
Reproduction, that's a whole other podcast.
00:06:59.035 --> 00:07:03.464
But re yeah, re reproduction rates are, are not at replace pretty down right now.
00:07:03.464 --> 00:07:06.314
Replacement, so that's a real problem.
00:07:06.404 --> 00:07:33.875
And, okay, so this so this came about and when, when I think about this, it is interesting because you say, well, Mary snitch miss, but for most crimes, if we had neighbors turning people in for known crimes against other US policies, and I, it feels like we would think that's okay to turn in criminals, but they're telling you that it's not okay to turn in criminals.
00:07:33.875 --> 00:07:34.204
Is that.
00:07:34.595 --> 00:07:35.675
The argument basically.
00:07:36.694 --> 00:07:37.745
Yeah, that's the gist.
00:07:37.745 --> 00:07:42.504
It's, it's it's you know, everything they're telling me on the other side is that I'm racist and.
00:07:43.185 --> 00:07:50.084
I couldn't be I claim I'm a hypocrite because I claim to be Christian, but I couldn't be more unlike Christ.
00:07:50.654 --> 00:07:58.365
Well, how do you respond to, like, the critics, critics that say that Jesus in the Bible, I'm pretty sure would Yeah.
00:07:58.365 --> 00:07:59.925
Would accept all immigrants?
00:07:59.925 --> 00:08:01.665
Like, what would you say that that.
00:08:01.894 --> 00:08:02.555
Yeah.
00:08:02.654 --> 00:08:06.764
So we need to treat foreigners according to scripture.
00:08:07.269 --> 00:08:12.160
With love that, that basically is meant for a certain group at a certain time.
00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:18.180
The way that we could take that today could also be applied to we treat everybody with love.
00:08:18.209 --> 00:08:20.670
I mean, that's what Christ would want us to do.
00:08:21.100 --> 00:08:24.819
But love involves truth and living in reality.
00:08:25.189 --> 00:08:30.060
You can't, exist and have a country exist without rules and laws and borders.
00:08:30.855 --> 00:08:39.924
And so the loving thing to do is to abide by the law and abide by the order set forth in a government or country.
00:08:39.924 --> 00:08:44.904
Otherwise, the go, the country will quickly deteriorate, which we've been kind of watching happen.
00:08:45.144 --> 00:08:52.075
And I'll get, I wanna, I have more comments about Jesus in a second, but you know, that's when we lose our borders, we're done.
00:08:52.225 --> 00:08:57.485
And that's kind of what the last administration, did, was essentially.
00:08:57.845 --> 00:09:05.075
Encourage financially people to come across our border, especially military age males into the United States.
00:09:05.134 --> 00:09:16.085
And these are some of the most wicked people wicked men in the world who are capable of really ridiculous evil crimes, sex trafficking, trafficking children, et cetera.
00:09:16.495 --> 00:09:21.174
That's a huge problem to have an open border and allow as much of that just to come across into the country.
00:09:21.174 --> 00:09:21.565
So.
00:09:21.985 --> 00:09:30.054
If people have an understanding of what it means to have open borders and they're pro open border, that means that they don't want that country to exist in.
00:09:30.054 --> 00:09:31.825
Its, you know, they don't want it to exist anymore.
00:09:31.855 --> 00:09:33.024
It's essentially what they're saying.
00:09:33.595 --> 00:09:40.674
So when you talk about Jesus, you know, a lot of people talk about going to heaven, you know, when you die and everything.
00:09:40.674 --> 00:09:46.315
And the reality is, is we're gonna, we're gonna throw, we're gonna show up at the white throne judgment.
00:09:46.345 --> 00:09:48.085
This is revelation now, the end of Revelation.
00:09:48.850 --> 00:09:50.230
After the white throne judgment.
00:09:50.230 --> 00:09:58.539
If your name is written in the Lamb's book of life, which means that you chose to follow Christ, you accept him as your Lord and Savior, you know you're a sinner.
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:03.970
And you know the only way that you can be good with the Father is because of that sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross.
00:10:04.330 --> 00:10:06.220
Your name's gonna be written in the Lamb's book of life.
00:10:06.220 --> 00:10:17.440
So it says in Revelation, after that white throne judgment happens, you have new Jerusalem, which is a kingdom that was created by the Father that comes down to a new earth.
00:10:17.980 --> 00:10:24.850
And it has dimensions and it's described really well in detail in chapter 21, 22 of Revelation.
00:10:25.539 --> 00:10:30.429
And Jesus is gonna live in this kingdom and you don't need sunshine because he is warmth, he is light.
00:10:30.429 --> 00:10:30.879
Right?
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:31.750
It's perfect.
00:10:31.750 --> 00:10:33.159
Everything's perfect all the time.
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:37.690
There's rivers, there's gold, there's, I mean, Trump would love it'cause there's a lot of gold it sounds like.
00:10:37.875 --> 00:10:38.164
Okay.
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:40.029
And there's tree.
00:10:40.029 --> 00:10:43.360
There's this tree and it has 12 different fruits, one for each month.
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:44.649
And it talks about all these things.
00:10:44.889 --> 00:10:46.000
I am getting to a point here.
00:10:46.029 --> 00:10:46.419
Don't worry.
00:10:46.865 --> 00:10:48.485
And there's walls on this kingdom.
00:10:48.485 --> 00:10:48.965
Okay?
00:10:49.144 --> 00:10:52.355
Big walls, and there's 12 gates, and they're guarded.
00:10:53.164 --> 00:11:00.095
The Bible says there will be, there will not be allowed anything that could come in and enter this kingdom that could defile it.
00:11:00.634 --> 00:11:02.315
This is the eternal kingdom.
00:11:02.315 --> 00:11:09.455
This is where people who are Christian, who love the Lord, will live forever with Christ and he will reign forever and ever in this kingdom.
00:11:09.664 --> 00:11:15.274
So the demonstration that we have from Jesus's kingdom is that it has walls.
00:11:15.870 --> 00:11:20.669
And guards, and there's no way anybody would be able to enter this kingdom that would defile it.
00:11:20.730 --> 00:11:25.259
And so if you want the best example of an ice commander, it's Jesus Christ himself.
00:11:26.985 --> 00:11:28.815
Boom, man, what a coincidence.
00:11:28.995 --> 00:11:32.174
That's a good, that's a good example.
00:11:32.174 --> 00:11:34.065
And argument I have not heard actually yet.
00:11:34.065 --> 00:11:35.754
So, thanks for sharing that.
00:11:35.904 --> 00:11:38.304
And Max, you gotta read up on Revelations, buddy?
00:11:38.664 --> 00:11:39.085
I do,
00:11:39.284 --> 00:11:46.215
You know, you guys, you know what, it's one of the biggest mis, mis like misunderstandings is people talk about heaven all the time and heaven.
00:11:46.725 --> 00:12:01.455
There is such a place and location and physical realm of heaven and the different levels of heaven mentioned in the Bible, but really like if you wanna know where you're gonna be spending your time, you know, as a Christian, it's gonna be in the kingdom, which is very clearly something different than the heavens.
00:12:01.455 --> 00:12:01.845
Okay?
00:12:02.205 --> 00:12:03.404
It's, it's a physical place.
00:12:03.404 --> 00:12:05.475
So check out Revelation 21, 22.
00:12:07.029 --> 00:12:07.360
Okay.
00:12:07.539 --> 00:12:08.169
That's pretty cool.
00:12:08.174 --> 00:12:08.245
Thanks.
00:12:08.250 --> 00:12:09.009
Thanks for the advice.
00:12:09.059 --> 00:12:19.080
We see the left often use scripture selectively, very selectively against Christians to sort of use our own morality to get what they want.
00:12:19.230 --> 00:12:22.710
And it's easy to do that when you don't have a moral system, right?
00:12:22.740 --> 00:12:27.929
Your own moral system is your own self preference and emotional like ideals.
00:12:27.929 --> 00:12:29.100
So, yeah.
00:12:29.100 --> 00:12:31.139
So that's pretty, pretty good.
00:12:31.139 --> 00:12:31.440
Yeah.
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:32.220
Yeah.
00:12:32.644 --> 00:12:36.304
one I get a lot is people say, well, Jesus didn't say that.
00:12:36.304 --> 00:12:38.315
He never said homosexuality was wrong.
00:12:39.394 --> 00:12:42.325
And it's, you know, the, the answer to that's really easy.
00:12:42.325 --> 00:12:44.784
It's, there's a lot of things that Jesus didn't say were wrong.
00:12:45.174 --> 00:12:48.384
You know, he didn't say bestiality is wrong.
00:12:48.384 --> 00:12:50.245
I mean, he didn't say watching pornography.
00:12:50.335 --> 00:12:52.764
There's a lot of things that he didn't say were wrong.
00:12:52.764 --> 00:12:55.735
They were just like clearly known to be wrong by everybody.
00:12:55.735 --> 00:12:58.674
So you don't have to say it to your audience if everybody knows it's wrong.
00:12:59.230 --> 00:13:00.610
He literally said the best.
00:13:00.940 --> 00:13:06.190
You know, the, the way that God designed sexuality is between man and woman and that being a marriage.
00:13:06.190 --> 00:13:09.789
So he doesn't have to say like, here's all the list of things that are wrong.
00:13:10.309 --> 00:13:14.120
And all the things in the future that you guys are gonna invent that are wrong.
00:13:14.149 --> 00:13:18.649
You know, I'm gonna give you this list now so that it's all inclusive of everything, you know not to do.
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:19.340
That's not the case.
00:13:19.340 --> 00:13:21.414
He doesn't need to do that'cause he defined what was right.
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:23.750
He said this is right.
00:13:23.750 --> 00:13:31.865
So, you know, you can basically make this assumptive understanding that everything else outside of that would be outside of the design and will of the father.
00:13:32.985 --> 00:13:33.674
Right, right.
00:13:33.674 --> 00:13:33.945
Yeah.
00:13:33.975 --> 00:13:34.154
Yeah.
00:13:34.154 --> 00:13:38.325
He essentially, he defines the ideal and that's what we strive towards.
00:13:38.384 --> 00:13:38.445
Yeah.
00:13:38.774 --> 00:13:49.024
And interestingly, yes sexual perversion is probably one of the more prominent things that is talked about, let's say, as sinful in the, in the Bible.
00:13:49.534 --> 00:13:49.830
And yet they.
00:13:51.154 --> 00:13:54.184
They still argue that it's not, and so I don't know.
00:13:54.184 --> 00:13:54.875
It's, it's interesting.
00:13:54.875 --> 00:13:57.004
I have a similar take to, to you on this, mark.
00:13:57.004 --> 00:13:58.054
Like, we love people.
00:13:58.054 --> 00:14:02.164
We, I have friends that are in LGBT and I love them.
00:14:02.164 --> 00:14:03.034
I care for them.
00:14:03.304 --> 00:14:06.934
I also have friends that are smokers or sin.
00:14:06.995 --> 00:14:07.475
I sin.
00:14:07.534 --> 00:14:10.355
We all sin and I love everybody.
00:14:10.414 --> 00:14:13.205
And so it's not, I don't find it to be like.
00:14:13.700 --> 00:14:17.840
Wrong to tell people the truth about what they're doing or the life that they're living.
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:21.350
And so if you're cheating on your spouse, I would say, Hey, that's wrong.
00:14:21.350 --> 00:14:22.429
You should not do that.
00:14:22.460 --> 00:14:29.809
And so it's similar in some of these LGBT spaces, but they get, oh gosh, they get really upset.
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:31.220
They get really, really upset.
00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:31.279
Yeah.
00:14:31.309 --> 00:14:37.970
When you state these things or like, we've made posts that just show basic statistics about.
00:14:39.259 --> 00:14:49.549
The people that live that lifestyle and their quality of life, and they're in almost every statistical measure, not living the same quality of life.
00:14:49.549 --> 00:14:52.809
And so we post that stuff and we that, yeah.
00:14:52.899 --> 00:14:53.950
And we get a lot of backlash.
00:14:55.029 --> 00:14:56.529
Yeah, definitely.
00:14:57.190 --> 00:15:06.399
Speaking of, speaking of Deb, what you were just saying, and you, mark, were also telling us some things about you've been getting a lot of backlash and a lot of hate, which.
00:15:06.789 --> 00:15:09.370
Makes sense because you've put out things people would not agree with.
00:15:09.370 --> 00:15:14.080
Especially a lot of the aggressive groups like you mentioned LGBT, right?
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:17.320
BLM, all of those guys, right?
00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:25.330
So I'm asking what do you think are like the main differences and like the things that are right between them.
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.629
Like, who's the, like what are the, who's the most aggressive?
00:15:28.659 --> 00:15:28.840
Yeah.
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.009
Who's like the most aggressive?
00:15:30.009 --> 00:15:31.059
What are they similar with?
00:15:31.059 --> 00:15:32.529
What are, what are they different about?
00:15:32.580 --> 00:15:33.240
Yeah.
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:42.115
So, I think there's definitely an this, this, this time is definitely a higher level of physical violence threats.
00:15:42.669 --> 00:15:56.049
Happening with the way that I experienced the pushback on heterosexual awesomeness was definitely a, a more of like a darker demonic type of response.
00:15:56.690 --> 00:16:01.909
This one feels in what, based off what I'm reading and receiving and, and, and threats and everything.
00:16:01.909 --> 00:16:07.639
I'm still getting some of the L-G-B-T-Q stuff, obviously, because they just, they're gonna all the time.
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:08.570
They just come after me.
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:14.299
But the other, this way is definitely more of like a physical violence way.
00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:17.629
And you, so we've touched on people.
00:16:18.605 --> 00:16:30.534
I mean, illegals tend to they're gonna be a part of gang movements in cities and things like that, and that's part of the life that they're used to is violence and violence being a solution to a problem.
00:16:30.904 --> 00:16:38.465
So I don't think you have that as much with the L-G-B-T-Q, you know, movement.
00:16:38.465 --> 00:16:41.855
It's not a very quick move towards violence.
00:16:42.975 --> 00:16:48.554
We've seen transgenders and using weapons and shooting people and all that stuff, so it's, it does exist.
00:16:49.095 --> 00:17:01.914
It's just that the lifestyle of the people that are really offended by this, apparently based off of what I'm receiving, are definitely more inclined towards physical threats and physical violence.
00:17:02.125 --> 00:17:04.220
A lot of mentioning of burning down the building.
00:17:05.269 --> 00:17:05.660
Wow.
00:17:06.380 --> 00:17:11.105
What, what are you doing to keep yourself and your staff and your business safe?
00:17:12.325 --> 00:17:13.674
So, yeah, I mean, I have,
00:17:14.015 --> 00:17:15.319
What, what you can tell us, I guess,
00:17:15.595 --> 00:17:16.234
yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:17:16.234 --> 00:17:16.734
I, yeah.
00:17:16.734 --> 00:17:17.214
So.
00:17:17.755 --> 00:17:25.555
We're a pretty safe place because at any given time there's probably 10 people armed at Old State Saloon.
00:17:26.154 --> 00:17:35.085
Our bartenders are armed and we have veterans there and there's a lot more coming in specifically this week because they wanna be there to make sure things are safe.
00:17:35.384 --> 00:17:37.275
We have retired police officers.
00:17:37.305 --> 00:17:42.365
I mean, people are doing men's prayer groups, Idaho's definitely a gun toting state.
00:17:42.434 --> 00:17:47.894
So a lot of people are armed and, and so it, it's very, very safe.
00:17:47.894 --> 00:17:52.484
We have some new cameras and I wanna actually make that system bigger.
00:17:52.904 --> 00:17:59.234
And the other thing is, you know, we've had some other strange things happen and.
00:17:59.954 --> 00:18:09.134
I was speaking out against, and I named them publicly in some interviews this week, earlier this week, and then the very next day yesterday.
00:18:10.194 --> 00:18:20.035
You know, I was speaking out against Idaho representatives and even the Governor of Idaho Brad Little for not taking a strong enough stance on this issue of immigration and illegal immigrants.
00:18:20.605 --> 00:18:23.964
And it makes you wonder why and when you start wondering why.
00:18:24.924 --> 00:18:38.184
I've learned that you need to follow the money and, and, and where's the money going and who's it's coming from, and who's, who's, who's sending big money to, let's just say governors or representatives or whoever are running for office, who's sending them big money.
00:18:38.184 --> 00:18:49.855
That has a vested interest in making sure that we, you know, allow illegals to be here in Idaho and it's gonna be these people with these big farming operations going on.
00:18:50.589 --> 00:18:53.289
You know, big agra, if you will.
00:18:53.589 --> 00:19:01.539
And so that's where I would naturally start looking, you know, to follow the money and see why these representatives are making, you know, these decisions that they're making.
00:19:02.019 --> 00:19:12.170
So the very next day after I said that, those names publicly, I got a call from Idaho Tax Commission and they said they're doing an audit on me for sales and use tax
00:19:12.769 --> 00:19:13.640
interesting timing.
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:14.299
Hmm.
00:19:14.390 --> 00:19:15.170
What a coincidence.
00:19:15.355 --> 00:19:16.255
that's impossible.
00:19:16.255 --> 00:19:17.454
That timing's impossible.
00:19:17.454 --> 00:19:20.365
I even told the guy on the phone and he's like, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:19:20.365 --> 00:19:26.684
And I said, well, this thing's happening, and can you imagine that I spoke out against, mayor McLean, who is.
00:19:27.045 --> 00:19:30.255
The mayor of Boise, an extremely wicked pro.
00:19:30.255 --> 00:19:34.335
L-G-B-T-Q, Protran Pro Trans in Kids person.
00:19:35.115 --> 00:19:36.434
And I spoke, spoke out about her.
00:19:36.434 --> 00:19:39.345
I spoke out about the governor, and the very next day you're calling me.
00:19:39.375 --> 00:19:44.414
That's why I said to him, and he's like, yeah, you know, actually that seems a, that does seem a little bit strange now that you're saying it.
00:19:45.434 --> 00:19:46.335
And I think I believe him.
00:19:46.335 --> 00:19:58.025
I think maybe he just hadn't heard that all this stuff was happening and didn't necessarily know he just said that it was in his, you know, message box or whatever to start this, today, that day, you know, and so he called me up.
00:19:58.424 --> 00:20:02.285
It is definitely extremely suspicious timing.
00:20:02.355 --> 00:20:02.714
As far as
00:20:02.730 --> 00:20:03.079
Weird.
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:03.089
Yeah.
00:20:03.660 --> 00:20:12.329
So what I've done, I'm assuming this is going to be a mo a bigger deal than a normal audit, maybe on, you know, if it is like a weaponized government type of thing.
00:20:12.750 --> 00:20:18.950
So I'm gonna hire a, a, an additional CPA that specializes in these things to help make sure everything's good.
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:26.964
I don't really have anything, any concerns, but they say the punishment is the process, the process of going through the, the audit and all that stuff.
00:20:26.964 --> 00:20:27.565
And they're just.
00:20:28.059 --> 00:20:34.630
It's like what the, a lot of these people are doing to me is trying to attack my business by making it impossible to do business.
00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:38.170
'cause you're so, let's just say distracted.
00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:44.380
And, and so what I did to try to combat that is I put out and I'm, I'm trying to get more cameras.
00:20:44.380 --> 00:20:44.950
I'm trying to do that.
00:20:44.950 --> 00:20:47.079
I'm trying to hire some security, some things.
00:20:47.380 --> 00:20:52.125
So I did put out that give, saying go today to see people wanting to chip in.
00:20:52.450 --> 00:20:54.609
Last I saw was like at$500 already.
00:20:54.609 --> 00:20:57.394
I was really, really happy to see that, so that was really cool.
00:20:58.579 --> 00:20:59.089
Oh, nice.
00:20:59.089 --> 00:21:02.720
I'm sure you'll, yeah, I'm sure you'll get some, some support there.
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:19.039
So this kind of leads into my next question, which is old state has had a history of some, let's say, non woke practices, which is great, but like hetero, hetero awesomeness month and now, christmas for snitches and merry snitch, miss.
00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:19.460
Yes.
00:21:19.460 --> 00:21:28.970
And you've had speakers come into your bar that, you know, I guess share conservative viewpoints and Christian viewpoints.
00:21:28.970 --> 00:21:36.740
And so what, as a bar owner in a town that probably leans very conservative, but what inspires you to do this?
00:21:36.740 --> 00:21:42.859
Because it is like taking on a big beast because you get so much, say headwind from.
00:21:43.414 --> 00:21:44.644
The broader community.
00:21:44.644 --> 00:21:51.609
When you do stuff like this, what inspires you to keep going and, and, and come up with new ideas and keep pushing the envelope through your business?
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:57.250
Well, I mean, the short answer ultimately is my, my faith is, but it's truth.
00:21:57.250 --> 00:22:09.700
I mean, I have like a really strong desire and calling to, to understand truth and try to help other people understand truth which is a much more difficult thing than I think most people think it is.
00:22:10.355 --> 00:22:15.599
When you go through scripture, and Jesus often says, for those who have eyes to see, let'em see.
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.450
For those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
00:22:18.450 --> 00:22:21.029
And he says, he says, A lot of times he says, pay attention.
00:22:21.029 --> 00:22:25.349
Like verily, verily, I say to you like, Hey, hey, look, what I'm about to say is important.
00:22:26.069 --> 00:22:28.740
Understand this because there's a lot of deception in the world.
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:35.910
And you know, later Paul writes, in Hebrews end of chapter five, he talks about deception.
00:22:35.910 --> 00:22:39.480
He says, if you don't make a practice out of discerning between good and evil.
00:22:40.005 --> 00:22:44.115
Out of deception, truth and deception, and trying to figure that out.
00:22:44.174 --> 00:22:49.184
If you don't make a practice of it, he says, then you don't understand anything beyond the milk of scripture.
00:22:49.875 --> 00:23:04.365
In other words, this is not gonna be a living, breathing document for you that is going to inspire and that you're going to learn from every day if you don't make a practice in your regular life out of really digging into what's true or not.
00:23:04.365 --> 00:23:04.904
And so.
00:23:05.384 --> 00:23:08.595
That's kind of like, to me, an extremely important thing.
00:23:08.595 --> 00:23:15.585
Jesus said, he is the way, the truth and the life, and so I wanna be like that.
00:23:15.615 --> 00:23:16.994
I wanna pursue truth.
00:23:17.204 --> 00:23:21.434
But he said, if you do that, if you follow me, the world will hate you.
00:23:22.065 --> 00:23:26.474
And he said, he said to take heart because they hated me first.
00:23:27.585 --> 00:23:32.589
And so if, if you have somebody who says that they love the Lord and they're following the Lord.
00:23:34.289 --> 00:23:36.809
They don't have people who hate them.
00:23:37.950 --> 00:23:40.410
It means they're probably not following the Lord.
00:23:40.410 --> 00:23:42.869
I mean, they're probably not doing what he does.
00:23:43.230 --> 00:23:51.359
That being said, I completely understand that most people live a life where they're in a position that would affect their family, their livelihood, et cetera.
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:55.769
If they were to be as blunt and truthful about things as I am, I completely understand that.
00:23:56.565 --> 00:24:09.974
We all have a different calling, but those people who maybe can't be the person who's out in public, you know, hard charging and saying hard truths, if they can't be that, then they can be somebody who supports that.
00:24:09.974 --> 00:24:11.684
They can support it through prayer.
00:24:11.964 --> 00:24:16.035
They can show up when that, when those other people are saying, Hey, let's do this.
00:24:16.035 --> 00:24:17.204
They can get behind it.
00:24:17.265 --> 00:24:21.285
They can simply click like, or share or whatever on social media.
00:24:21.315 --> 00:24:21.569
It helps.
00:24:22.769 --> 00:24:23.849
Followers, et cetera.
00:24:23.849 --> 00:24:25.349
Financial help is amazing.
00:24:25.349 --> 00:24:27.000
Prayer support is amazing.
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:30.279
So there's, there's something for everyone to do.
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:32.799
And not everybody, you know, I used to get so upset.
00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:40.390
Why isn't everybody, why isn't every, I mean, and if everybody did say the truth at once, you know, there's no way that they could censor it.
00:24:40.390 --> 00:24:50.240
And, you know, people were afraid of talking about vaccines when people, you know, you had these like front runners and then the front runners are taking all these arrows and getting censored and everything.
00:24:50.555 --> 00:24:54.005
But if everybody has stepped forward at once, they just can't stop it.
00:24:54.005 --> 00:24:57.424
They can't stop the masses when the truth is gonna come out that quickly and everything.
00:24:57.934 --> 00:24:59.865
But, it doesn't work out like that.
00:24:59.865 --> 00:25:06.404
It's usually there's people in front and they're taking the arrows and then they build a group behind them and then hopefully that movement grows and truth spreads.
00:25:06.404 --> 00:25:07.394
And so that's what I
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:07.539
yeah,
00:25:07.694 --> 00:25:09.105
I just wanna be a part of that.
00:25:09.674 --> 00:25:11.174
I just wanna be a part of spreading truth.
00:25:11.644 --> 00:25:12.065
Mm-hmm.
00:25:12.224 --> 00:25:15.910
We, we can appreciate that it takes a lot of courage to do what you are doing.
00:25:16.250 --> 00:25:17.839
'Cause you do take a lot of arrows.
00:25:18.130 --> 00:25:21.369
And we feel like we do a bit of this too, and we have people to reach out to us.
00:25:21.849 --> 00:25:35.470
In fact, just last night, I got a really heartfelt note from somebody that said, I want to be able to speak out more about truth like you guys do on your show or on your social media, but I don't feel like I can because people will hate me.
00:25:36.579 --> 00:25:38.650
And so this is a very common thing.
00:25:38.650 --> 00:25:40.960
And so I, I tell people the same as you.
00:25:40.990 --> 00:25:46.089
Like, try, try to build up the, the confidence or, or if not, you can support us in other ways.
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:50.589
And that, you know, that's just a different way to support, but it is tricky.
00:25:50.589 --> 00:25:54.579
Like people could lose their livelihoods, they can lose their business, they can lose their family.
00:25:54.609 --> 00:26:00.039
I mean, we've, we've probably all, all all of us here on this show have had that happen in our lives.
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:00.880
And so it's a.
00:26:01.734 --> 00:26:05.904
It's tricky, but yes, at the end of the day it's like, gosh, I, I feel like you should do what's right.
00:26:06.055 --> 00:26:16.164
And, and I've got two boys here and so I'm trying to lead by example in speaking truth and doing what's right and trying to teach them along the way, like to do what's right and to engage with other people.
00:26:16.164 --> 00:26:17.454
I know I've seen you do this at.
00:26:18.305 --> 00:26:20.464
Whether it be parades in Boise mm-hmm.
00:26:20.704 --> 00:26:23.335
Or or whatever, but engaging with people that think very differently.
00:26:23.335 --> 00:26:27.595
Like, we just had a couple of communists on our podcast, and we definitely don't believe in communism.
00:26:27.595 --> 00:26:43.644
But yeah, it's interesting to see how they, they think and work and then we can kind of unpack that and ultimately, you know, it helps refine our ideas, our you know, our, yeah, our belief system, our worldview and our faith in, in, in a lot of instances.
00:26:43.644 --> 00:26:43.944
So.
00:26:44.509 --> 00:26:47.839
Yeah, well we appreciate what you, what what you do for sure.
00:26:47.869 --> 00:26:49.759
Are there other things that people can do?
00:26:50.059 --> 00:26:57.710
Prayers to support you, prayer, give and go to support you people out there that might be listening to this, that are patriots and you know, believe in the things that you're doing.
00:26:58.105 --> 00:26:58.525
Yeah.
00:26:58.525 --> 00:26:59.424
Prayer warriors.
00:26:59.424 --> 00:27:02.694
That's, I, and I have some and more the merrier.
00:27:02.744 --> 00:27:05.984
This definitely a spiritual battle for sure.
00:27:06.085 --> 00:27:08.244
So that, that would be appreciated.
00:27:08.295 --> 00:27:13.125
We have our online store that people are buying shirts and they're buying merchandise.
00:27:13.184 --> 00:27:19.964
And a lot of pe there's been several people who've called and said, Hey, I'd like to buy a round of drinks for some patriots that come in.
00:27:20.529 --> 00:27:21.670
For some veterans or whatever.
00:27:21.670 --> 00:27:24.470
So we have that option on our on our store.
00:27:24.470 --> 00:27:39.660
If you go to old state saloon.com/store or just hit the store button, you'll see that in there and just getting the word out, I always appreciate it when local people are generous with our, our bartenders and, and team and everybody.
00:27:40.484 --> 00:27:44.204
Who's, who's working there because it is a bit of an extra stress for them too.
00:27:44.634 --> 00:27:50.005
And I'm sure they take some heat from some of their people they know and their friends for working for Old State Saloon.
00:27:50.474 --> 00:27:54.164
But yeah, all of that would be, would be much appreciated.
00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:58.960
Well, I kind of wish we had an old state here in our town we had.
00:27:58.960 --> 00:27:59.500
That would be nice.
00:27:59.500 --> 00:28:00.730
Maybe you should franchise.
00:28:00.819 --> 00:28:01.210
Yes.
00:28:01.210 --> 00:28:02.650
Maybe franchise this thing.
00:28:02.894 --> 00:28:08.134
I did put the I put the max on the give send, go up to$1 billion because why not?
00:28:08.494 --> 00:28:08.914
And
00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:09.440
Eh.
00:28:10.384 --> 00:28:13.744
I said, if we get enough, you know, we'll build a new kitchen first at ours.
00:28:13.775 --> 00:28:18.454
But then if it goes way beyond that, we'll just start, we'll just start putting up old state saloons all over the place.
00:28:18.994 --> 00:28:21.964
And that would really like blow the minds of all the liberals around.
00:28:23.025 --> 00:28:23.654
Yes.
00:28:23.714 --> 00:28:26.265
Well that be, I know a lot of people that would, that would be so funny.
00:28:26.355 --> 00:28:31.105
I know a lot of people that would like to frequent your establishment, and we had the opportunity we were in, I.
00:28:31.994 --> 00:28:33.734
Idaho, about a year ago.
00:28:33.825 --> 00:28:34.394
About a year ago?
00:28:34.394 --> 00:28:34.454
Yeah.
00:28:34.454 --> 00:28:36.974
We went out to just kind of, we came over to your, the root beer.
00:28:36.974 --> 00:28:38.144
We came over to the saloon.
00:28:38.234 --> 00:28:40.275
So we, and we had, we had eat some of the food.
00:28:40.275 --> 00:28:41.384
Max had some root beer.
00:28:41.474 --> 00:28:42.194
Tastes like real beer.
00:28:42.194 --> 00:28:43.305
Dad had actual beer.
00:28:43.875 --> 00:28:44.204
Yeah.
00:28:44.789 --> 00:28:45.410
So, okay,
00:28:45.434 --> 00:28:46.335
think we also had like a
00:28:46.384 --> 00:28:47.795
since then, we're all ages now.
00:28:48.980 --> 00:28:54.150
And it's all ages from, we open in the morning until 8:00 PM when, when our kitchen closes.
00:28:54.150 --> 00:28:54.660
But yeah.
00:28:54.660 --> 00:28:56.880
So next time you come back, you're welcome to come inside.
00:28:57.295 --> 00:28:57.865
oh good.
00:28:57.865 --> 00:28:59.694
So you've got like a restaurant license now.
00:28:59.730 --> 00:29:00.029
Yeah.
00:29:00.029 --> 00:29:06.720
There's actually, right now our, our bar is full of homeschool kids and, and their moms and dads.
00:29:07.464 --> 00:29:08.005
Oh, nice.
00:29:08.005 --> 00:29:08.724
That is awesome.
00:29:08.815 --> 00:29:09.565
That is awesome.
00:29:09.894 --> 00:29:14.335
Well, I have to say, for anybody listening that wants to go to old State, we went, okay.
00:29:14.335 --> 00:29:15.289
The, the food is amazing.
00:29:15.289 --> 00:29:16.345
The food was amazing.
00:29:16.375 --> 00:29:20.335
Like, and I don't, I'm not just saying this'cause I wouldn't toot the, the ed if it wasn't good.
00:29:20.335 --> 00:29:21.355
We, yeah, we're not sponsored.
00:29:21.970 --> 00:29:24.500
But the food was and I'll tell you what I had.
00:29:24.500 --> 00:29:27.710
So one I had, I had a hazy IPA that was untapped, delicious.
00:29:27.890 --> 00:29:28.910
Max had the root beer.
00:29:28.914 --> 00:29:29.234
Root beer.
00:29:29.480 --> 00:29:32.599
I had a like roasted Turkey sandwich.
00:29:32.660 --> 00:29:34.279
That was unbelievable.
00:29:34.315 --> 00:29:34.755
I think I ate half.
00:29:34.755 --> 00:29:35.539
I still think about it.
00:29:36.349 --> 00:29:36.619
Huh?
00:29:36.740 --> 00:29:37.490
Didn't I eat half?
00:29:37.494 --> 00:29:37.644
You?
00:29:37.730 --> 00:29:38.480
You ate part of it.
00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:39.410
Mom had a salad.
00:29:39.410 --> 00:29:40.490
She's very healthy eater.
00:29:40.549 --> 00:29:42.200
And Will had a, what'd you have a burger?
00:29:42.289 --> 00:29:43.460
It was some sort of burger.
00:29:43.890 --> 00:29:47.910
If we get back in town, we're gonna, we're gonna definitely come back'cause we ha we enjoyed it and had a good
00:29:48.230 --> 00:29:48.859
when you come out.
00:29:48.904 --> 00:29:49.194
Yeah.
00:29:49.315 --> 00:29:53.369
I guess since now, now you guys have breakfast, might eat their breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
00:29:53.369 --> 00:29:53.700
Mm.
00:29:54.109 --> 00:29:56.000
and root ears are on me when you come out.
00:29:56.670 --> 00:29:57.029
All right.
00:29:57.029 --> 00:29:57.509
Perfect.
00:29:57.515 --> 00:29:59.190
Perfect, max, enjoy the root beer.
00:29:59.819 --> 00:30:01.980
Well, with that, why don't we wrap it up.
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:03.690
It was great talking to you again.
00:30:03.690 --> 00:30:17.289
We wish you all the luck in this and I wish you safety, luck, and prayers and anything we can do we'll we'll definitely drop some of the information into the description of the podcast and we'll have a couple of shorts and reels that go out too.
00:30:17.349 --> 00:30:18.759
So yeah, best of luck to you.
00:30:18.964 --> 00:30:19.535
Thank you guys.
00:30:19.535 --> 00:30:26.615
I just wanna keep encouraging you to keep on keeping on because I, I like seeing your clips and everything when they pop up, so I'll always be sharing them.
00:30:26.615 --> 00:30:27.005
Thank you.
00:00:00.050 --> 00:00:04.580
Welcome to the Programming Lions Podcast, free beer for deportations.
00:00:05.150 --> 00:00:10.039
Well, this episode features Mark Fitzpatrick, the proud owner, owner of Old State Saloon.
00:00:11.285 --> 00:00:16.054
He's got some very interesting holiday promotions going viral, so let's get into it.
00:00:23.304 --> 00:00:25.434
Mark Fitzpatrick from Old State Saloon.
00:00:25.434 --> 00:00:26.304
Welcome back.
00:00:26.304 --> 00:00:27.625
It's good to see you again.
00:00:27.625 --> 00:00:31.045
It's been maybe a little bit of over a year since we talked to you last.
00:00:31.410 --> 00:00:32.664
it's good to be back with you guys.
00:00:33.689 --> 00:00:35.789
I just was commenting the boys are growing like weeds.
00:00:35.789 --> 00:00:39.664
I said, to see that, and I'm glad to be back on your show.
00:00:40.854 --> 00:00:41.125
Yeah.
00:00:41.125 --> 00:00:41.545
Good.
00:00:41.545 --> 00:00:41.875
Good.
00:00:42.234 --> 00:00:44.424
Well, let's get right into the meat, huh?
00:00:44.664 --> 00:00:45.625
All right, let's do it.
00:00:45.924 --> 00:00:51.024
So I heard that old state has had some new promotions going viral.
00:00:51.384 --> 00:00:52.765
Can you tell us more about that?
00:00:53.265 --> 00:01:05.704
Well, it started out I think last Saturday it was, or Friday, and I posted that, you know, the, the issue of the immigration has been getting heated and I have my stance on that.
00:01:05.704 --> 00:01:08.435
And, and I think it's important for people to.
00:01:09.019 --> 00:01:13.280
Think about this and what we can do, you know, as normal people.
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:29.420
And so I gave out an incentive to people, to the public of offering free beer for a month, for anybody who could give information to ICE that would ultimately lead to the deportation of a illegal out of Idaho.
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:41.454
That kind of posted couple people sharing, couple big accounts sharing, and then I saw Department of Home, department of Homeland Security shared it, and I just about like lost it.
00:01:41.459 --> 00:01:48.049
It was so funny because the way they shared it was just, it was really clever with the, you know, the s were holding the beer, but.
00:01:48.930 --> 00:01:49.290
Yeah.
00:01:49.409 --> 00:01:49.769
Yeah.
00:01:50.340 --> 00:01:50.730
Wow.
00:01:50.730 --> 00:01:52.019
Yeah, so that blew up.
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:52.950
That's gotten, that's crazy.
00:01:52.950 --> 00:01:58.950
Millions and millions of views now, and I imagine what also blew up is like backlash, right?
00:01:59.254 --> 00:02:01.775
A lot of backlash and a lot of, and a lot of support.
00:02:01.924 --> 00:02:12.125
So, you know, we've had more, more than last time, you know, with the heterosexual awesomeness thing we've had more threats to burn down the building.
00:02:12.155 --> 00:02:13.634
Maybe there's more arsonists out there now.
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.509
But I think it's this particular topic actually.
00:02:17.729 --> 00:02:26.050
You have a lot more people involved with, organizations like Antifa BLM which we can get into later, some of their comments.
00:02:26.050 --> 00:02:34.099
But and those people who follow those organizations, you know, it appears like they tend to be people who think about violence.
00:02:34.985 --> 00:02:40.955
First, or, you know, as a, as a decent solution to something they don't like in life.
00:02:41.004 --> 00:02:50.715
Somebody's free speech is bothering me, so, let's go burn down the building that that person's in and some of'em even suggesting that they would like me to be inside of it when it burns down.
00:02:51.344 --> 00:02:54.284
So yeah, everything from, you know, from that, we have a lot of that.
00:02:54.284 --> 00:02:59.215
There's a lot of attacks on my business some of which I don't even wanna explain.
00:02:59.810 --> 00:03:00.860
It's nonstop.
00:03:00.990 --> 00:03:03.509
We have a lot of people sending messages.
00:03:03.569 --> 00:03:06.060
Again, they're very threatening.
00:03:06.129 --> 00:03:27.969
There's a lot of gay porn and pornography being sent because I, I find that to be a very, demonic spiritual thing like that just seems to be the thing that people who don't like a Christian or don't like somebody who stands for morality, if they don't like somebody who loves the Lord, they wanna send them images and things like that.
00:03:28.460 --> 00:03:29.900
So there's been a lot of that.
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.139
It's also kind of ironic.
00:03:31.139 --> 00:03:33.300
They almost like are suggesting that it's wrong,
00:03:34.370 --> 00:03:34.909
yeah.
00:03:34.969 --> 00:03:37.699
Well, yeah, that's the whole thing when they, I get called gay.
00:03:37.789 --> 00:03:38.810
Oh, you're so gay.
00:03:39.254 --> 00:03:41.384
Never met anybody as gay as you are.
00:03:41.384 --> 00:03:41.835
And then it's
00:03:42.025 --> 00:03:42.085
not
00:03:42.134 --> 00:03:44.534
like, you know, if gay is a good thing, why?
00:03:44.564 --> 00:03:45.914
Why do you say that?
00:03:45.965 --> 00:03:46.145
Like
00:03:46.245 --> 00:03:46.455
Yeah.
00:03:46.455 --> 00:03:50.324
Why would they use it as a slur or a Yeah, it's interesting.
00:03:51.294 --> 00:03:52.639
Do do some haters.
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:56.539
Compare this to the, like the, not see Germany with the snitches.
00:03:57.129 --> 00:03:58.210
I've gotten a lot of that.
00:03:58.389 --> 00:04:03.159
Of course, anytime that's the left, you know, when they don't like something that the right is doing.
00:04:03.849 --> 00:04:06.400
They, that's one of the key words that they use there.
00:04:06.449 --> 00:04:09.180
'Cause they, they hope when they do this, they're trying to shut you down.
00:04:09.629 --> 00:04:12.180
When people speak out for truth.
00:04:12.180 --> 00:04:15.689
The way that the left shuts you down is they name call you.
00:04:15.740 --> 00:04:19.399
And they want it to be something that bothers you inside.
00:04:19.790 --> 00:04:22.649
So they'll use the Nazi word bigot.
00:04:22.704 --> 00:04:27.535
Nazi Hitler, they're about the most dehumanizing, evil things you can sort of associate to a person.
00:04:27.535 --> 00:04:28.675
And so that works for them,
00:04:28.709 --> 00:04:29.279
Right.
00:04:29.790 --> 00:04:30.120
Yeah.
00:04:30.170 --> 00:04:33.800
The other thing is a lot of allegations of, of racism.
00:04:34.259 --> 00:04:39.480
East Los Angeles Spanish Coalition or something like that.
00:04:39.810 --> 00:04:45.300
They sent me a cease and desist letter, and it was like very, I'm, I mean, I don't know if they're serious.
00:04:45.329 --> 00:04:46.259
I think they're serious.
00:04:46.259 --> 00:04:51.720
Like, I'm supposed to stop my free speech because it's, it's upsetting them and they're gonna alert.
00:04:52.709 --> 00:04:58.610
Hundreds or thousands of people to potentially like, stop or attack my business in some way.
00:04:58.680 --> 00:04:58.980
Yeah.
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:09.709
And it's, it's, it's like, wow, you are in this country and you're saying it's okay for illegals to be here and.
00:05:10.504 --> 00:05:15.634
I am a citizen of the country and I have a constitutional right to free speech, and you're saying I can't have that.
00:05:15.634 --> 00:05:20.435
So you're, it's like you're basically saying you're not even supposed to be here or who you're representing is not supposed to be here.
00:05:20.704 --> 00:05:23.074
And you're telling me that I can't have my first amendment.
00:05:23.074 --> 00:05:25.194
It's so that's just pretty crazy.
00:05:25.194 --> 00:05:31.055
But he did ask, he did ask me if I wanted to go on a podcast with'em, and I said yes.
00:05:31.055 --> 00:05:32.644
So I'm going on their podcast tonight.
00:05:32.675 --> 00:05:32.894
Oh
00:05:33.035 --> 00:05:33.514
we'll see.
00:05:33.545 --> 00:05:34.564
We'll see how that goes.
00:05:34.970 --> 00:05:35.899
But no, I don't.
00:05:35.899 --> 00:05:38.480
We will see what happens when they get to hear the truth from somebody, you know?
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:44.509
But also, if they're willing to talk reasonably, we might come away from that podcast and learn, you know, something about each other.
00:05:44.509 --> 00:05:48.475
So I'm not, I'm not gonna make an assumption that there's no way it would be a good thing.
00:05:49.574 --> 00:05:49.814
Right.
00:05:49.814 --> 00:05:50.024
Yeah.
00:05:50.024 --> 00:05:50.985
Well, best of luck.
00:05:51.045 --> 00:05:54.975
What so this is obviously, it's a controversial topic in America right now.
00:05:54.975 --> 00:05:59.925
What inspired you to go forward with this plan through the holidays
00:05:59.954 --> 00:06:10.995
the free beer for the I for the Helping Ice, I mean that, that's just basically a, I don't know, it wasn't really a title for it, but once it took off, I was like, wow, we should make a whole season season out of this.
00:06:11.699 --> 00:06:19.360
So we call it Merry Snitchmas And so you're snitching on illegals who are not supposed to be here to ice.
00:06:19.420 --> 00:06:33.509
And so we, we have some specials that are going on through, through December that are, you know, manly American Mondays, which is gonna be any male dressed like a man who who basically will support ice and and help ice.
00:06:34.274 --> 00:06:39.615
And then ladies, I'm telling Tuesdays it's buy one, get one for the ladies.
00:06:39.665 --> 00:06:45.074
And then we have whistleblower Wednesdays that's heterosexual couples that are Patriots.
00:06:45.444 --> 00:06:53.055
We just want to give them 10% off encouraging them if they're not already to get married and have American babies.
00:06:53.084 --> 00:06:54.615
'cause we need more American babies.
00:06:55.285 --> 00:06:55.944
Yes, we do.
00:06:56.634 --> 00:06:56.964
Yes.
00:06:56.995 --> 00:06:57.204
Yeah.
00:06:57.264 --> 00:06:59.035
Reproduction, that's a whole other podcast.
00:06:59.035 --> 00:07:03.464
But re yeah, re reproduction rates are, are not at replace pretty down right now.
00:07:03.464 --> 00:07:06.314
Replacement, so that's a real problem.
00:07:06.404 --> 00:07:33.875
And, okay, so this so this came about and when, when I think about this, it is interesting because you say, well, Mary snitch miss, but for most crimes, if we had neighbors turning people in for known crimes against other US policies, and I, it feels like we would think that's okay to turn in criminals, but they're telling you that it's not okay to turn in criminals.
00:07:33.875 --> 00:07:34.204
Is that.
00:07:34.595 --> 00:07:35.675
The argument basically.
00:07:36.694 --> 00:07:37.745
Yeah, that's the gist.
00:07:37.745 --> 00:07:42.504
It's, it's it's you know, everything they're telling me on the other side is that I'm racist and.
00:07:43.185 --> 00:07:50.084
I couldn't be I claim I'm a hypocrite because I claim to be Christian, but I couldn't be more unlike Christ.
00:07:50.654 --> 00:07:58.365
Well, how do you respond to, like, the critics, critics that say that Jesus in the Bible, I'm pretty sure would Yeah.
00:07:58.365 --> 00:07:59.925
Would accept all immigrants?
00:07:59.925 --> 00:08:01.665
Like, what would you say that that.
00:08:01.894 --> 00:08:02.555
Yeah.
00:08:02.654 --> 00:08:06.764
So we need to treat foreigners according to scripture.
00:08:07.269 --> 00:08:12.160
With love that, that basically is meant for a certain group at a certain time.
00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:18.180
The way that we could take that today could also be applied to we treat everybody with love.
00:08:18.209 --> 00:08:20.670
I mean, that's what Christ would want us to do.
00:08:21.100 --> 00:08:24.819
But love involves truth and living in reality.
00:08:25.189 --> 00:08:30.060
You can't, exist and have a country exist without rules and laws and borders.
00:08:30.855 --> 00:08:39.924
And so the loving thing to do is to abide by the law and abide by the order set forth in a government or country.
00:08:39.924 --> 00:08:44.904
Otherwise, the go, the country will quickly deteriorate, which we've been kind of watching happen.
00:08:45.144 --> 00:08:52.075
And I'll get, I wanna, I have more comments about Jesus in a second, but you know, that's when we lose our borders, we're done.
00:08:52.225 --> 00:08:57.485
And that's kind of what the last administration, did, was essentially.
00:08:57.845 --> 00:09:05.075
Encourage financially people to come across our border, especially military age males into the United States.
00:09:05.134 --> 00:09:16.085
And these are some of the most wicked people wicked men in the world who are capable of really ridiculous evil crimes, sex trafficking, trafficking children, et cetera.
00:09:16.495 --> 00:09:21.174
That's a huge problem to have an open border and allow as much of that just to come across into the country.
00:09:21.174 --> 00:09:21.565
So.
00:09:21.985 --> 00:09:30.054
If people have an understanding of what it means to have open borders and they're pro open border, that means that they don't want that country to exist in.
00:09:30.054 --> 00:09:31.825
Its, you know, they don't want it to exist anymore.
00:09:31.855 --> 00:09:33.024
It's essentially what they're saying.
00:09:33.595 --> 00:09:40.674
So when you talk about Jesus, you know, a lot of people talk about going to heaven, you know, when you die and everything.
00:09:40.674 --> 00:09:46.315
And the reality is, is we're gonna, we're gonna throw, we're gonna show up at the white throne judgment.
00:09:46.345 --> 00:09:48.085
This is revelation now, the end of Revelation.
00:09:48.850 --> 00:09:50.230
After the white throne judgment.
00:09:50.230 --> 00:09:58.539
If your name is written in the Lamb's book of life, which means that you chose to follow Christ, you accept him as your Lord and Savior, you know you're a sinner.
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:03.970
And you know the only way that you can be good with the Father is because of that sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross.
00:10:04.330 --> 00:10:06.220
Your name's gonna be written in the Lamb's book of life.
00:10:06.220 --> 00:10:17.440
So it says in Revelation, after that white throne judgment happens, you have new Jerusalem, which is a kingdom that was created by the Father that comes down to a new earth.
00:10:17.980 --> 00:10:24.850
And it has dimensions and it's described really well in detail in chapter 21, 22 of Revelation.
00:10:25.539 --> 00:10:30.429
And Jesus is gonna live in this kingdom and you don't need sunshine because he is warmth, he is light.
00:10:30.429 --> 00:10:30.879
Right?
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:31.750
It's perfect.
00:10:31.750 --> 00:10:33.159
Everything's perfect all the time.
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:37.690
There's rivers, there's gold, there's, I mean, Trump would love it'cause there's a lot of gold it sounds like.
00:10:37.875 --> 00:10:38.164
Okay.
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:40.029
And there's tree.
00:10:40.029 --> 00:10:43.360
There's this tree and it has 12 different fruits, one for each month.
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:44.649
And it talks about all these things.
00:10:44.889 --> 00:10:46.000
I am getting to a point here.
00:10:46.029 --> 00:10:46.419
Don't worry.
00:10:46.865 --> 00:10:48.485
And there's walls on this kingdom.
00:10:48.485 --> 00:10:48.965
Okay?
00:10:49.144 --> 00:10:52.355
Big walls, and there's 12 gates, and they're guarded.
00:10:53.164 --> 00:11:00.095
The Bible says there will be, there will not be allowed anything that could come in and enter this kingdom that could defile it.
00:11:00.634 --> 00:11:02.315
This is the eternal kingdom.
00:11:02.315 --> 00:11:09.455
This is where people who are Christian, who love the Lord, will live forever with Christ and he will reign forever and ever in this kingdom.
00:11:09.664 --> 00:11:15.274
So the demonstration that we have from Jesus's kingdom is that it has walls.
00:11:15.870 --> 00:11:20.669
And guards, and there's no way anybody would be able to enter this kingdom that would defile it.
00:11:20.730 --> 00:11:25.259
And so if you want the best example of an ice commander, it's Jesus Christ himself.
00:11:26.985 --> 00:11:28.815
Boom, man, what a coincidence.
00:11:28.995 --> 00:11:32.174
That's a good, that's a good example.
00:11:32.174 --> 00:11:34.065
And argument I have not heard actually yet.
00:11:34.065 --> 00:11:35.754
So, thanks for sharing that.
00:11:35.904 --> 00:11:38.304
And Max, you gotta read up on Revelations, buddy?
00:11:38.664 --> 00:11:39.085
I do,
00:11:39.284 --> 00:11:46.215
You know, you guys, you know what, it's one of the biggest mis, mis like misunderstandings is people talk about heaven all the time and heaven.
00:11:46.725 --> 00:12:01.455
There is such a place and location and physical realm of heaven and the different levels of heaven mentioned in the Bible, but really like if you wanna know where you're gonna be spending your time, you know, as a Christian, it's gonna be in the kingdom, which is very clearly something different than the heavens.
00:12:01.455 --> 00:12:01.845
Okay?
00:12:02.205 --> 00:12:03.404
It's, it's a physical place.
00:12:03.404 --> 00:12:05.475
So check out Revelation 21, 22.
00:12:07.029 --> 00:12:07.360
Okay.
00:12:07.539 --> 00:12:08.169
That's pretty cool.
00:12:08.174 --> 00:12:08.245
Thanks.
00:12:08.250 --> 00:12:09.009
Thanks for the advice.
00:12:09.059 --> 00:12:19.080
We see the left often use scripture selectively, very selectively against Christians to sort of use our own morality to get what they want.
00:12:19.230 --> 00:12:22.710
And it's easy to do that when you don't have a moral system, right?
00:12:22.740 --> 00:12:27.929
Your own moral system is your own self preference and emotional like ideals.
00:12:27.929 --> 00:12:29.100
So, yeah.
00:12:29.100 --> 00:12:31.139
So that's pretty, pretty good.
00:12:31.139 --> 00:12:31.440
Yeah.
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:32.220
Yeah.
00:12:32.644 --> 00:12:36.304
one I get a lot is people say, well, Jesus didn't say that.
00:12:36.304 --> 00:12:38.315
He never said homosexuality was wrong.
00:12:39.394 --> 00:12:42.325
And it's, you know, the, the answer to that's really easy.
00:12:42.325 --> 00:12:44.784
It's, there's a lot of things that Jesus didn't say were wrong.
00:12:45.174 --> 00:12:48.384
You know, he didn't say bestiality is wrong.
00:12:48.384 --> 00:12:50.245
I mean, he didn't say watching pornography.
00:12:50.335 --> 00:12:52.764
There's a lot of things that he didn't say were wrong.
00:12:52.764 --> 00:12:55.735
They were just like clearly known to be wrong by everybody.
00:12:55.735 --> 00:12:58.674
So you don't have to say it to your audience if everybody knows it's wrong.
00:12:59.230 --> 00:13:00.610
He literally said the best.
00:13:00.940 --> 00:13:06.190
You know, the, the way that God designed sexuality is between man and woman and that being a marriage.
00:13:06.190 --> 00:13:09.789
So he doesn't have to say like, here's all the list of things that are wrong.
00:13:10.309 --> 00:13:14.120
And all the things in the future that you guys are gonna invent that are wrong.
00:13:14.149 --> 00:13:18.649
You know, I'm gonna give you this list now so that it's all inclusive of everything, you know not to do.
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:19.340
That's not the case.
00:13:19.340 --> 00:13:21.414
He doesn't need to do that'cause he defined what was right.
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:23.750
He said this is right.
00:13:23.750 --> 00:13:31.865
So, you know, you can basically make this assumptive understanding that everything else outside of that would be outside of the design and will of the father.
00:13:32.985 --> 00:13:33.674
Right, right.
00:13:33.674 --> 00:13:33.945
Yeah.
00:13:33.975 --> 00:13:34.154
Yeah.
00:13:34.154 --> 00:13:38.325
He essentially, he defines the ideal and that's what we strive towards.
00:13:38.384 --> 00:13:38.445
Yeah.
00:13:38.774 --> 00:13:49.024
And interestingly, yes sexual perversion is probably one of the more prominent things that is talked about, let's say, as sinful in the, in the Bible.
00:13:49.534 --> 00:13:49.830
And yet they.
00:13:51.154 --> 00:13:54.184
They still argue that it's not, and so I don't know.
00:13:54.184 --> 00:13:54.875
It's, it's interesting.
00:13:54.875 --> 00:13:57.004
I have a similar take to, to you on this, mark.
00:13:57.004 --> 00:13:58.054
Like, we love people.
00:13:58.054 --> 00:14:02.164
We, I have friends that are in LGBT and I love them.
00:14:02.164 --> 00:14:03.034
I care for them.
00:14:03.304 --> 00:14:06.934
I also have friends that are smokers or sin.
00:14:06.995 --> 00:14:07.475
I sin.
00:14:07.534 --> 00:14:10.355
We all sin and I love everybody.
00:14:10.414 --> 00:14:13.205
And so it's not, I don't find it to be like.
00:14:13.700 --> 00:14:17.840
Wrong to tell people the truth about what they're doing or the life that they're living.
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:21.350
And so if you're cheating on your spouse, I would say, Hey, that's wrong.
00:14:21.350 --> 00:14:22.429
You should not do that.
00:14:22.460 --> 00:14:29.809
And so it's similar in some of these LGBT spaces, but they get, oh gosh, they get really upset.
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:31.220
They get really, really upset.
00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:31.279
Yeah.
00:14:31.309 --> 00:14:37.970
When you state these things or like, we've made posts that just show basic statistics about.
00:14:39.259 --> 00:14:49.549
The people that live that lifestyle and their quality of life, and they're in almost every statistical measure, not living the same quality of life.
00:14:49.549 --> 00:14:52.809
And so we post that stuff and we that, yeah.
00:14:52.899 --> 00:14:53.950
And we get a lot of backlash.
00:14:55.029 --> 00:14:56.529
Yeah, definitely.
00:14:57.190 --> 00:15:06.399
Speaking of, speaking of Deb, what you were just saying, and you, mark, were also telling us some things about you've been getting a lot of backlash and a lot of hate, which.
00:15:06.789 --> 00:15:09.370
Makes sense because you've put out things people would not agree with.
00:15:09.370 --> 00:15:14.080
Especially a lot of the aggressive groups like you mentioned LGBT, right?
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:17.320
BLM, all of those guys, right?
00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:25.330
So I'm asking what do you think are like the main differences and like the things that are right between them.
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.629
Like, who's the, like what are the, who's the most aggressive?
00:15:28.659 --> 00:15:28.840
Yeah.
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.009
Who's like the most aggressive?
00:15:30.009 --> 00:15:31.059
What are they similar with?
00:15:31.059 --> 00:15:32.529
What are, what are they different about?
00:15:32.580 --> 00:15:33.240
Yeah.
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:42.115
So, I think there's definitely an this, this, this time is definitely a higher level of physical violence threats.
00:15:42.669 --> 00:15:56.049
Happening with the way that I experienced the pushback on heterosexual awesomeness was definitely a, a more of like a darker demonic type of response.
00:15:56.690 --> 00:16:01.909
This one feels in what, based off what I'm reading and receiving and, and, and threats and everything.
00:16:01.909 --> 00:16:07.639
I'm still getting some of the L-G-B-T-Q stuff, obviously, because they just, they're gonna all the time.
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:08.570
They just come after me.
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:14.299
But the other, this way is definitely more of like a physical violence way.
00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:17.629
And you, so we've touched on people.
00:16:18.605 --> 00:16:30.534
I mean, illegals tend to they're gonna be a part of gang movements in cities and things like that, and that's part of the life that they're used to is violence and violence being a solution to a problem.
00:16:30.904 --> 00:16:38.465
So I don't think you have that as much with the L-G-B-T-Q, you know, movement.
00:16:38.465 --> 00:16:41.855
It's not a very quick move towards violence.
00:16:42.975 --> 00:16:48.554
We've seen transgenders and using weapons and shooting people and all that stuff, so it's, it does exist.
00:16:49.095 --> 00:17:01.914
It's just that the lifestyle of the people that are really offended by this, apparently based off of what I'm receiving, are definitely more inclined towards physical threats and physical violence.
00:17:02.125 --> 00:17:04.220
A lot of mentioning of burning down the building.
00:17:05.269 --> 00:17:05.660
Wow.
00:17:06.380 --> 00:17:11.105
What, what are you doing to keep yourself and your staff and your business safe?
00:17:12.325 --> 00:17:13.674
So, yeah, I mean, I have,
00:17:14.015 --> 00:17:15.319
What, what you can tell us, I guess,
00:17:15.595 --> 00:17:16.234
yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:17:16.234 --> 00:17:16.734
I, yeah.
00:17:16.734 --> 00:17:17.214
So.
00:17:17.755 --> 00:17:25.555
We're a pretty safe place because at any given time there's probably 10 people armed at Old State Saloon.
00:17:26.154 --> 00:17:35.085
Our bartenders are armed and we have veterans there and there's a lot more coming in specifically this week because they wanna be there to make sure things are safe.
00:17:35.384 --> 00:17:37.275
We have retired police officers.
00:17:37.305 --> 00:17:42.365
I mean, people are doing men's prayer groups, Idaho's definitely a gun toting state.
00:17:42.434 --> 00:17:47.894
So a lot of people are armed and, and so it, it's very, very safe.
00:17:47.894 --> 00:17:52.484
We have some new cameras and I wanna actually make that system bigger.
00:17:52.904 --> 00:17:59.234
And the other thing is, you know, we've had some other strange things happen and.
00:17:59.954 --> 00:18:09.134
I was speaking out against, and I named them publicly in some interviews this week, earlier this week, and then the very next day yesterday.
00:18:10.194 --> 00:18:20.035
You know, I was speaking out against Idaho representatives and even the Governor of Idaho Brad Little for not taking a strong enough stance on this issue of immigration and illegal immigrants.
00:18:20.605 --> 00:18:23.964
And it makes you wonder why and when you start wondering why.
00:18:24.924 --> 00:18:38.184
I've learned that you need to follow the money and, and, and where's the money going and who's it's coming from, and who's, who's, who's sending big money to, let's just say governors or representatives or whoever are running for office, who's sending them big money.
00:18:38.184 --> 00:18:49.855
That has a vested interest in making sure that we, you know, allow illegals to be here in Idaho and it's gonna be these people with these big farming operations going on.
00:18:50.589 --> 00:18:53.289
You know, big agra, if you will.
00:18:53.589 --> 00:19:01.539
And so that's where I would naturally start looking, you know, to follow the money and see why these representatives are making, you know, these decisions that they're making.
00:19:02.019 --> 00:19:12.170
So the very next day after I said that, those names publicly, I got a call from Idaho Tax Commission and they said they're doing an audit on me for sales and use tax
00:19:12.769 --> 00:19:13.640
interesting timing.
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:14.299
Hmm.
00:19:14.390 --> 00:19:15.170
What a coincidence.
00:19:15.355 --> 00:19:16.255
that's impossible.
00:19:16.255 --> 00:19:17.454
That timing's impossible.
00:19:17.454 --> 00:19:20.365
I even told the guy on the phone and he's like, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:19:20.365 --> 00:19:26.684
And I said, well, this thing's happening, and can you imagine that I spoke out against, mayor McLean, who is.
00:19:27.045 --> 00:19:30.255
The mayor of Boise, an extremely wicked pro.
00:19:30.255 --> 00:19:34.335
L-G-B-T-Q, Protran Pro Trans in Kids person.
00:19:35.115 --> 00:19:36.434
And I spoke, spoke out about her.
00:19:36.434 --> 00:19:39.345
I spoke out about the governor, and the very next day you're calling me.
00:19:39.375 --> 00:19:44.414
That's why I said to him, and he's like, yeah, you know, actually that seems a, that does seem a little bit strange now that you're saying it.
00:19:45.434 --> 00:19:46.335
And I think I believe him.
00:19:46.335 --> 00:19:58.025
I think maybe he just hadn't heard that all this stuff was happening and didn't necessarily know he just said that it was in his, you know, message box or whatever to start this, today, that day, you know, and so he called me up.
00:19:58.424 --> 00:20:02.285
It is definitely extremely suspicious timing.
00:20:02.355 --> 00:20:02.714
As far as
00:20:02.730 --> 00:20:03.079
Weird.
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:03.089
Yeah.
00:20:03.660 --> 00:20:12.329
So what I've done, I'm assuming this is going to be a mo a bigger deal than a normal audit, maybe on, you know, if it is like a weaponized government type of thing.
00:20:12.750 --> 00:20:18.950
So I'm gonna hire a, a, an additional CPA that specializes in these things to help make sure everything's good.
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:26.964
I don't really have anything, any concerns, but they say the punishment is the process, the process of going through the, the audit and all that stuff.
00:20:26.964 --> 00:20:27.565
And they're just.
00:20:28.059 --> 00:20:34.630
It's like what the, a lot of these people are doing to me is trying to attack my business by making it impossible to do business.
00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:38.170
'cause you're so, let's just say distracted.
00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:44.380
And, and so what I did to try to combat that is I put out and I'm, I'm trying to get more cameras.
00:20:44.380 --> 00:20:44.950
I'm trying to do that.
00:20:44.950 --> 00:20:47.079
I'm trying to hire some security, some things.
00:20:47.380 --> 00:20:52.125
So I did put out that give, saying go today to see people wanting to chip in.
00:20:52.450 --> 00:20:54.609
Last I saw was like at$500 already.
00:20:54.609 --> 00:20:57.394
I was really, really happy to see that, so that was really cool.
00:20:58.579 --> 00:20:59.089
Oh, nice.
00:20:59.089 --> 00:21:02.720
I'm sure you'll, yeah, I'm sure you'll get some, some support there.
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:19.039
So this kind of leads into my next question, which is old state has had a history of some, let's say, non woke practices, which is great, but like hetero, hetero awesomeness month and now, christmas for snitches and merry snitch, miss.
00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:19.460
Yes.
00:21:19.460 --> 00:21:28.970
And you've had speakers come into your bar that, you know, I guess share conservative viewpoints and Christian viewpoints.
00:21:28.970 --> 00:21:36.740
And so what, as a bar owner in a town that probably leans very conservative, but what inspires you to do this?
00:21:36.740 --> 00:21:42.859
Because it is like taking on a big beast because you get so much, say headwind from.
00:21:43.414 --> 00:21:44.644
The broader community.
00:21:44.644 --> 00:21:51.609
When you do stuff like this, what inspires you to keep going and, and, and come up with new ideas and keep pushing the envelope through your business?
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:57.250
Well, I mean, the short answer ultimately is my, my faith is, but it's truth.
00:21:57.250 --> 00:22:09.700
I mean, I have like a really strong desire and calling to, to understand truth and try to help other people understand truth which is a much more difficult thing than I think most people think it is.
00:22:10.355 --> 00:22:15.599
When you go through scripture, and Jesus often says, for those who have eyes to see, let'em see.
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.450
For those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
00:22:18.450 --> 00:22:21.029
And he says, he says, A lot of times he says, pay attention.
00:22:21.029 --> 00:22:25.349
Like verily, verily, I say to you like, Hey, hey, look, what I'm about to say is important.
00:22:26.069 --> 00:22:28.740
Understand this because there's a lot of deception in the world.
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:35.910
And you know, later Paul writes, in Hebrews end of chapter five, he talks about deception.
00:22:35.910 --> 00:22:39.480
He says, if you don't make a practice out of discerning between good and evil.
00:22:40.005 --> 00:22:44.115
Out of deception, truth and deception, and trying to figure that out.
00:22:44.174 --> 00:22:49.184
If you don't make a practice of it, he says, then you don't understand anything beyond the milk of scripture.
00:22:49.875 --> 00:23:04.365
In other words, this is not gonna be a living, breathing document for you that is going to inspire and that you're going to learn from every day if you don't make a practice in your regular life out of really digging into what's true or not.
00:23:04.365 --> 00:23:04.904
And so.
00:23:05.384 --> 00:23:08.595
That's kind of like, to me, an extremely important thing.
00:23:08.595 --> 00:23:15.585
Jesus said, he is the way, the truth and the life, and so I wanna be like that.
00:23:15.615 --> 00:23:16.994
I wanna pursue truth.
00:23:17.204 --> 00:23:21.434
But he said, if you do that, if you follow me, the world will hate you.
00:23:22.065 --> 00:23:26.474
And he said, he said to take heart because they hated me first.
00:23:27.585 --> 00:23:32.589
And so if, if you have somebody who says that they love the Lord and they're following the Lord.
00:23:34.289 --> 00:23:36.809
They don't have people who hate them.
00:23:37.950 --> 00:23:40.410
It means they're probably not following the Lord.
00:23:40.410 --> 00:23:42.869
I mean, they're probably not doing what he does.
00:23:43.230 --> 00:23:51.359
That being said, I completely understand that most people live a life where they're in a position that would affect their family, their livelihood, et cetera.
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:55.769
If they were to be as blunt and truthful about things as I am, I completely understand that.
00:23:56.565 --> 00:24:09.974
We all have a different calling, but those people who maybe can't be the person who's out in public, you know, hard charging and saying hard truths, if they can't be that, then they can be somebody who supports that.
00:24:09.974 --> 00:24:11.684
They can support it through prayer.
00:24:11.964 --> 00:24:16.035
They can show up when that, when those other people are saying, Hey, let's do this.
00:24:16.035 --> 00:24:17.204
They can get behind it.
00:24:17.265 --> 00:24:21.285
They can simply click like, or share or whatever on social media.
00:24:21.315 --> 00:24:21.569
It helps.
00:24:22.769 --> 00:24:23.849
Followers, et cetera.
00:24:23.849 --> 00:24:25.349
Financial help is amazing.
00:24:25.349 --> 00:24:27.000
Prayer support is amazing.
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:30.279
So there's, there's something for everyone to do.
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:32.799
And not everybody, you know, I used to get so upset.
00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:40.390
Why isn't everybody, why isn't every, I mean, and if everybody did say the truth at once, you know, there's no way that they could censor it.
00:24:40.390 --> 00:24:50.240
And, you know, people were afraid of talking about vaccines when people, you know, you had these like front runners and then the front runners are taking all these arrows and getting censored and everything.
00:24:50.555 --> 00:24:54.005
But if everybody has stepped forward at once, they just can't stop it.
00:24:54.005 --> 00:24:57.424
They can't stop the masses when the truth is gonna come out that quickly and everything.
00:24:57.934 --> 00:24:59.865
But, it doesn't work out like that.
00:24:59.865 --> 00:25:06.404
It's usually there's people in front and they're taking the arrows and then they build a group behind them and then hopefully that movement grows and truth spreads.
00:25:06.404 --> 00:25:07.394
And so that's what I
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:07.539
yeah,
00:25:07.694 --> 00:25:09.105
I just wanna be a part of that.
00:25:09.674 --> 00:25:11.174
I just wanna be a part of spreading truth.
00:25:11.644 --> 00:25:12.065
Mm-hmm.
00:25:12.224 --> 00:25:15.910
We, we can appreciate that it takes a lot of courage to do what you are doing.
00:25:16.250 --> 00:25:17.839
'Cause you do take a lot of arrows.
00:25:18.130 --> 00:25:21.369
And we feel like we do a bit of this too, and we have people to reach out to us.
00:25:21.849 --> 00:25:35.470
In fact, just last night, I got a really heartfelt note from somebody that said, I want to be able to speak out more about truth like you guys do on your show or on your social media, but I don't feel like I can because people will hate me.
00:25:36.579 --> 00:25:38.650
And so this is a very common thing.
00:25:38.650 --> 00:25:40.960
And so I, I tell people the same as you.
00:25:40.990 --> 00:25:46.089
Like, try, try to build up the, the confidence or, or if not, you can support us in other ways.
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:50.589
And that, you know, that's just a different way to support, but it is tricky.
00:25:50.589 --> 00:25:54.579
Like people could lose their livelihoods, they can lose their business, they can lose their family.
00:25:54.609 --> 00:26:00.039
I mean, we've, we've probably all, all all of us here on this show have had that happen in our lives.
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:00.880
And so it's a.
00:26:01.734 --> 00:26:05.904
It's tricky, but yes, at the end of the day it's like, gosh, I, I feel like you should do what's right.
00:26:06.055 --> 00:26:16.164
And, and I've got two boys here and so I'm trying to lead by example in speaking truth and doing what's right and trying to teach them along the way, like to do what's right and to engage with other people.
00:26:16.164 --> 00:26:17.454
I know I've seen you do this at.
00:26:18.305 --> 00:26:20.464
Whether it be parades in Boise mm-hmm.
00:26:20.704 --> 00:26:23.335
Or or whatever, but engaging with people that think very differently.
00:26:23.335 --> 00:26:27.595
Like, we just had a couple of communists on our podcast, and we definitely don't believe in communism.
00:26:27.595 --> 00:26:43.644
But yeah, it's interesting to see how they, they think and work and then we can kind of unpack that and ultimately, you know, it helps refine our ideas, our you know, our, yeah, our belief system, our worldview and our faith in, in, in a lot of instances.
00:26:43.644 --> 00:26:43.944
So.
00:26:44.509 --> 00:26:47.839
Yeah, well we appreciate what you, what what you do for sure.
00:26:47.869 --> 00:26:49.759
Are there other things that people can do?
00:26:50.059 --> 00:26:57.710
Prayers to support you, prayer, give and go to support you people out there that might be listening to this, that are patriots and you know, believe in the things that you're doing.
00:26:58.105 --> 00:26:58.525
Yeah.
00:26:58.525 --> 00:26:59.424
Prayer warriors.
00:26:59.424 --> 00:27:02.694
That's, I, and I have some and more the merrier.
00:27:02.744 --> 00:27:05.984
This definitely a spiritual battle for sure.
00:27:06.085 --> 00:27:08.244
So that, that would be appreciated.
00:27:08.295 --> 00:27:13.125
We have our online store that people are buying shirts and they're buying merchandise.
00:27:13.184 --> 00:27:19.964
And a lot of pe there's been several people who've called and said, Hey, I'd like to buy a round of drinks for some patriots that come in.
00:27:20.529 --> 00:27:21.670
For some veterans or whatever.
00:27:21.670 --> 00:27:24.470
So we have that option on our on our store.
00:27:24.470 --> 00:27:39.660
If you go to old state saloon.com/store or just hit the store button, you'll see that in there and just getting the word out, I always appreciate it when local people are generous with our, our bartenders and, and team and everybody.
00:27:40.484 --> 00:27:44.204
Who's, who's working there because it is a bit of an extra stress for them too.
00:27:44.634 --> 00:27:50.005
And I'm sure they take some heat from some of their people they know and their friends for working for Old State Saloon.
00:27:50.474 --> 00:27:54.164
But yeah, all of that would be, would be much appreciated.
00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:58.960
Well, I kind of wish we had an old state here in our town we had.
00:27:58.960 --> 00:27:59.500
That would be nice.
00:27:59.500 --> 00:28:00.730
Maybe you should franchise.
00:28:00.819 --> 00:28:01.210
Yes.
00:28:01.210 --> 00:28:02.650
Maybe franchise this thing.
00:28:02.894 --> 00:28:08.134
I did put the I put the max on the give send, go up to$1 billion because why not?
00:28:08.494 --> 00:28:08.914
And
00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:09.440
Eh.
00:28:10.384 --> 00:28:13.744
I said, if we get enough, you know, we'll build a new kitchen first at ours.
00:28:13.775 --> 00:28:18.454
But then if it goes way beyond that, we'll just start, we'll just start putting up old state saloons all over the place.
00:28:18.994 --> 00:28:21.964
And that would really like blow the minds of all the liberals around.
00:28:23.025 --> 00:28:23.654
Yes.
00:28:23.714 --> 00:28:26.265
Well that be, I know a lot of people that would, that would be so funny.
00:28:26.355 --> 00:28:31.105
I know a lot of people that would like to frequent your establishment, and we had the opportunity we were in, I.
00:28:31.994 --> 00:28:33.734
