MISSION STATEMENT (Revised May 12 '21):
Recently, through my own interactions, I have really found that I> WE are (to use a better analogy) Lions Among Sheep! Something I have found saying to myself a lot lately! This is why the brand change to this group Formerly, The Wolf (FB) Group.
We live in a world today full of Liberal Sheep! In our governments, media, schools, it seems everywhere! This FB Group is NOT for the Sheep, but for the LION: Conservative, Nationalistic (meaning country and its LEGAL citizens first), Anti-Political Correctness, and AGAINST the proliferation of Sharia Law> against Radical Islam. Also against ALL Liberalism/Socialism and resistant to multiculturalism! I mention multiculturalism for this reason: Different cultures are like different chemicals to a chemist. That chemist knows that there are certain chemicals you don't put together, unless you want them to blow up in your face! This lesson learned can be seen right now in Europe! And if we don't stop it! It will come/happen here! In the U.S. & Canada! And I am definitely NOT speaking out against different races. Don't put Culture and Race in the same box! Not the same. You can be against multiculturalism and NOT be racist. Meaning: I am NOT anti-race! We are all human beings. But cultures?! Different! Culture basically boils down to that person's beliefs, ideology, religion, how they see the world, etc. AND, that can be contradicting to OUR way of life here (U.S. and/or Canada) To people wanting to come here from other countries: if you have problems there> fix them there> DON'T bring them here with you! FURTHER, don't come here with the expectations of changing our inherent way of life to yours!!! What I am advocating is that persons that want to immigrate here (U.S. & Canada) should do so, but abide by OUR (time honoured and built) customs, laws, and way of life> and not come here to try and change it!!! Lastly: Immigration should NOT be about diversity, but rather, to the country they wish to immigrate to, the value the immigrant will bring to that country! Diversity is NOT our strength! E pluribus unum. (Out of many, one.) Diversity is a weakness, globalism is our enemy, but unity is our strength.
This Group and it's Administrators do not advocate offensive violence, nor any harm to the innocent. However, a STRONG DEFENSE can be seen as a strong offense too! So we can network, communicate and discuss issues. To continue and build political strategies and firewalls. And yes someday, organize against The Fight, in whatever form it will come against us. Our "Conservative" politicians and governments consistently fail us. It is up to us, TO PROTECT US! In all truth, all government(s) are in on "IT." It being The Great Reset. The swamp is deep! That's why it is referred often as the Deep State. We are seeing the merging of governments with the big corporations to soon become: Corporate Government! Just like something out of a B type sci-fi movie! Where this Corporate Government only sees the bottom line, with no care for civil liberties or freedoms.
Society as we know it is going into a death spiral into the ridiculous and the DANGEROUS... It may not completely go the way of Socialist/Leftist/and yes TRUE FASCIST RULE (because if you know yer history, Fascism came from the Left), but we are going to see perpetual strife and struggle between the Left and the Right. And radical groups from the Left are going to continue to come vastly out of the woodwork like cockroaches... Because for them, the timing is right, and the environment suitable for their dogma and actions (attacks)!
I believe there will come a time that we will have to protect ourselves locally, protecting our individual families and households... Learn how to do so. If your community/society where you live allows you to LEGALLY own firearms> do so, learn how to defend against edged weapons, AND learn defenses against all weapons of the day. Learn principles and the methodologies of personal and property protection!
I am not advocating doing anything illegal! Let me be clear: I AM NOT ADVOCATING DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL! OR FOR THAT MATTER, OFFENSIVE, RATHER THINK DEFENSIVE
THIS GROUP SUPPORTS OUR MILITARY AND LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL!
>>>Libs/Socialists/Lefties that get in this group/class by hook or crook, and start your garbage, YOU will be removed by me!!!<<<
One further point: This group has no place for Racism!
It's hoped that everyone here will network together. If you have actual Conservative candidates in your district/riding> please support them! (But truthfully, the real ones are very few and very far between...) As stated earlier: We can't rely on our Conservative (most are False) government reps to protect us... It's all coming apart. The Left is organizing and becoming more violent & militant. We need to stand together! We are being overrun by sheep, and scavengers coming here from outside our borders. >>>Remember: Even the Great Lion can be trampled to death...<<<
_______________________________________________________________________
Then there is the unseen foe from one of our free societies' greatest threat: CHINA.
The turn of the year 2020, our lives as we knew it changed. Perhaps permanently... It's one theory that the COVID 19 virus originated from a wet market in Wuhan a city in China. As of late March 2020, China has re-opened the wet markets...
China is NOT our friend! That is, more specifically the Chinese Communist Government! They have been an economic and military threat, but now through their inaction on closing wet markets, which are absolutely hygienically inadequate, not to mention the intolerable, inhuman treatment of animals, but it would now seem, because of all said: it is a THREAT to us!
The Chinese virus more likely man made/instigated?
There is more and more evidence coming out now, and hopefully more, that the Chinese Covid 19 actually originated from a Chinese lab. Specifically, from a lab precariously close to the Wuhan markets! When the virus got out, the Communist Chinese government has been trying to conceal their dereliction! We need to begin, AND CONTINUE, to decouple ourselves from China. Unless China, specifically its government, makes correct and appropriate changes to circumvent and eliminate the threats and issues previously stated and presented here! Otherwise WE WILL be faced and hit with another Chinese virus! One that our free countries will not be able to get through or survive economically (which to the Chinese Government is a collateral benefit to them), let alone the loss of life!
Sadly, what we are learning is that regarding the virology center in Wuhan, their study on these bats and corona viruses were funded by U.S. agencies (and probably the U.N. too> W.H.O.) like the National Institute of Health, as well as by other agencies, one run by Fauci! These agencies strictly from a, "not in my backyard" position, had China do the dirty work, but they wanted the data from the experiments. Well, as we can probably surmise, China in its well known inept work, and reputation for making junk, obviously did a crap job in the safeguards and protections at this lab... We know what happened after that...
_______________________________________________________________________
Metaphorically speaking, there are essentially three types of people, when I use the following animal analogy. They are: Sheep, Hyenas, and Lions. Their number within our population exponentially goes down as you progress from the first to the last.
The Sheep are the largest, in number, of our population. They're the ones who are scared easily and want to be taken care of and controlled. They were raised in captivity, caged, and have become accustomed to being taken care of by their handlers, as an example, they're fed, their housed, and yes they're slaughtered too. But of course, the sheep don't think about that, or even aware, they are just as comfortable and happy to be controlled, caged, to eat the feed/gruel given them, and to walk around in their own feces.
The Hyenas are devious creatures. They survive by being thievish, and as scavengers. And I would direct their description towards politicians and others who have agendas, corporate leaders, criminal element, and so forth who want to be a puppeteer and control the sheep. They come off as being strong and tough, but they'll run at the first exchange with something greater than them. They are much fewer in numbers than the sheep but can be dangerous. The hyena would like nothing better than to see the lion gone! Then the hyena would be the alpha predator and top of the food chain. Free to steal, manipulate, and indiscriminately destroy.
The Lions well, they are the fewest in the population. They are the strongest, they are the ones that the hyenas run from, as do the sheep. The lion stands for freedom liberty, strength, fighting for something that one believes in, and will protect their own to farthest extremes! Lions unlike sheep, are not created to be caged. Cage a free lion and it will destroy it. (Even the ones born in captivity are only a shell of their line.) The lion exists, and co-exists with its environment, by its code of family, the pride. The lion lives and functions independently on the open plains. Free...

Political Correctness is, and will be, checked at the door!
Psychiatrist Anthony Daniels wrote: "When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse, when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To a center obvious lies is to cooperate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to."
As to the term Political Correctness itself, professor Frank Ellis of the university of Sheffield noted that it was first used in the late 19th to early 20th century when Vladimir Lenin began his rise to power in Russia. The Nazis also used it to describe individuals and ideas which stuck to the party line. The real weaponization of political correctness and the relentless demonization of supposedly politically incorrect ideas, however, must be traced back to George Lukacs. Born low winger Burnett into a Jewish banking family based in Budapest Lukacs became a communist in 1918 and was made people's commissar of education and culture in the short-lived Red terror regime of Belah Kuhn. He also became a commissar in the red army, later admitting to the execution not only of class enemies but also of eight of his own soldiers. As well as riding a favor of political terror and mass murder, Lukacs developed a theory that sex and sexual deviancy could be used as wrecking balls to destroy the Christian values of the old order, something he believed essential to the success of the Communist Revolution political correctness paves the way for the army of horrors behind it, by turning madness into gospel, meekness into fashion, and surrender into habit. Those who are sent to the absurdity are already halfway to atrocity. They have sacrificed a piece of their souls for security, but will not receive it. The universe never has rewarded, and never will reward, a coward's attempt to bargain.
We must understand Political Correctness as a very intense form of psychological and spiritual warfare. The goal of it is not just a censor ideas and words and to keep people in the dark. The ultimate goal is to destroy the subject's sense of right, and the subject sense of shame, and most importantly, the subjects will to resist, to live a life of authenticity, of honor, a virtue.

The following are topics/points that will be covered in LIONHEART:
Learning Visualization and Tactical Thinking
The following points below are covered and presented in detail in our Adult Kenpo Karate S.M.A.R.T. classes:
Pre-emptive Steps To Prevent An Assault/Attack
Situational Awareness
Turn Off Your Filters (Don’t have Inattention Blindness)
FOLLOW (AND LISTEN TO) YOUR GUT!
A.R.T./Awareness-Responsive-Tactical (Connective process between Preemption and First Contact.)
First Contact> THREAT
Flick The Switch
Strike ONLY Vital Defined Areas
Continue To Strike Until THE THREAT HAS BEEN NEUTRALIZED, non-functional!
Change the Actor - Reactor Ratio
The Actor - Reactor Ratio, is that ratio between your assailant and you.
Two types of violent behavior: Antisocial vs Asocial
In our S.M.A.R.T. classes these two states of behavior are defined, deconstructed, and counter tactics for each given.
Precursors to Violent Behavior
Prey Signal - Predator Signal

Prey Signal - Predator Signal
Prey Signal/Predator Signal Video
ART> Awareness/Responsive/Tactical
Awareness
- Always be aware of your surroundings. Give off a Predator Signal (See further below), and ALWAYS follow your gut!
Responsive
- Don't hesitate to respond appropriately to a perceived threat! Analyze the situation and put together the appropriate response. This just might mean not going to a location, event, or establishment that doesn't feel right> follow your gut always! A proper response in many cases could just be to just remove yourself from a possible bad situation.
Tactical
- If Tactical Action is required, overwhelm the threat source, until the threat has been nullified, non-functional. Don't strike to win or even survive. No! Not the right mindset. STRIKE TO INJURE!!!
REMEMBER: Greater violence wins!

Function Over Form and Adaptation of Technique
“If you find from your own experience that something is a fact and it contradicts what some authority has written down, then you must abandon the authority and base your reasoning on your own findings.”
-Leonardo da Vinci
Martial Arts, both classical/traditional & modern as they are so often identified by, as seen today, tend NOT to be practical against threats of today, and the reality of how an attack can be acted out against you! One must be able to look and derive function over form. If it is found to be more practical, and successful, that the accepted principle and methodology of a technique should be modified/adapted upon, away from the accepted, THEN DO IT!
- Hanshi C
Do NOT Allow for Atrophy of Technique!
All of this is a perishable skill! Meaning: If ya don't use it... Ya lose it!!!

First Contact Conflict

Theory of the (Old West) Gunfighter. Gunfighter 101! Along with Speed Hitting!
Strike First - Strike Fast!
Like a classic gunslinger, get 'em before they get you!!!
The Old West Gunslinger knew the mechanics and attributes necessary to win a fight. Those principles can be used today in dealing with an adversary at First Contact. Some years ago, I became aware of, and studied how the gunfighter actually defended themselves. The facts of the matter, to anyone's surprise, does not jive with the romantic impressions of the Old Western Gunfighter. (In the days of the Gunfighter/Gunslinger, they called themselves often as, Shootists. So, I like to call what I do as, Strikist.) The truth of the matter is this: The successful Old West Gunfighter did whatever he had to, to win, to survive. Tricking or baiting his opponent was just fine. The important thing was to get your opponent first! These are all good rules of thumb to follow in today's conflicts! Especially in First Contact Conflict. First Contact Conflict is just that: That point that you are first confronted by a threatening opponent. long before any fighting stance or a physical exchange. The point at the beginning. The posturing, positioning, and the verbalization. Which is how the Old West gunfights would begin and then progress to conclusion.

It's all about the Fast Strike! (That gets there first!)
Fast Strike Points:
Effective Non-Assuming Stance
Minimizing Motion (Shortest distance between two points of reference)
Striking Naturally> an ingredient to speed is Effortless Motion
Hand Position
Body/Hand Creep
Learn from your strikes
Clear Your Mind
Line of Sight & Line of Strike
Utilize The Bridge/Unbendable Arm in your punches
Hand Before Foot
Fast Striking is based on Closing.
Seeking the hands, a Wing Chun term.
Threat Zone Line
Reverse Engineer your strike.

Strike First Videos (below)
At First Contact Conflict, Speed Hitting can play a vitally, positive role. If your first strike has your top speed, clean & precise technique, and a line of site path; it is possible to "freeze" your opponent. Your speed simply, for a split second, paralyzes- freezes their ability to react. This condition can be seen early into the above video, when some of my assistants, are captured on the video freezing at the point of my speed shot. They knew they were suppose to clap their hands together the moment they saw/sensed my movement, even possibly catching my hand. But as you can see, they were "frozen" still at the moment of my strike! Ultimately your First Strike, and before your opponent can get a strike off, is most important at First Contact!

Today and everywhere, we have the possibility of radicalized individuals and groups threatening free societies and its innocent citizens. Whether "Home grown," or from away, it could happen anywhere, as past and recent events have shown us. "Low Tech" attacks> i.e. using vehicles, common edged weapons like kitchen knives, any all types of edged weapons, tools like hammers, etc, are now being utilized by these perpetrators of Terror. LIONHEART PPP, presents a self-dense program to present information and techniques aligned to help counter these threats. Radicalized attacks in this webpage are added to what we think of as, "traditional attacks," utilizing conventional and unconventional weapons. No matter where you live in our free societies, you must face the realization, that terror threats are possible anywhere! Much of how you would defend yourself against a possible terror type, low tech attack, is quite similar to regular self-defense. A lot of it is acquiring proper defense thinking> and Following/Listening To Your Gut! Awareness of your environment is first and foremost important!

Psalm 3:7
When it comes to an assailant with a weapon: Always your tactical thinking should be Weapon Defense NOT Weapon Disarm!!! There IS a difference!
Disarms are techniques of opportunity only. This is one of the "laws" we live by in Inayan Eskrima. If you "plan" to take away a weapon from someone that is determined to put the sharp pointy end into you, you are probably going to suddenly realize that things just didn't work out like you counted on them to. Unfortunately, that lesson may never have an opportunity to mature. The cinema has desensitized us to what an edged weapon can do in this type of situation. They have given the general public the idea that they can simply slap or kick the weapon from someone that intends to do them great bodily harm. That will simply not happen and along the way they will incur lots of damage. By the time they realize it.. it may be too late. My students practice disarms religiously but understand the opportunity must be created or simply present itself before attempting the take away. In combat, as in many other things, opportunities come and go. You must find the timing and have the skill readily available to use when the moment is right. -Tagaturo Klement, the Filipino art of Inayan Eskrima.

The images of Terror and Evil today, THAT ARE IN OUR VERY OWN BACKYARD:
“The 10 Warning Signs of Terrorist Activity”
1. Suspicious activity related to fireworks.
Federal authorities have advised local law enforcement to take notice of anyone asking questions about fireworks “that go beyond mere curiosity about the potential damage fireworks could cause.”
Authorities are worried an extremist or lone wolf could repackage the explosives in fireworks as an improvised explosive device. The death of a 47-year-old Michigan man occurred when a large mortar fireworks shell he was holding detonated served as a tragic reminder of just how dangerous fireworks can be.
So if you see someone behaving strangely at your neighborhood fireworks stand — perhaps asking questions suggesting another use in mind beyond casual entertainment — that might be a good time to say something to police.
2. Probing or testing the perimeter of a fence, facility, or its security systems.
Most attacks involve some form of reconnaissance. Sometimes this is as cursory as snapping a few cellphone images for later review and planning. Other perpetrators will devote time to mapping out their routes, even studying the timing of traffic lights and commuter patterns. They may even embark on a rehearsal prior to the actual attack.
If you see someone loitering or behaving in a suspicious way — like checking out an employee-only entrance at a shopping mall, or examining the integrity of a fence along a regional airport — let local law enforcement know that you see something that looks strange. Police receive inquiries like that all the time, and as long as the call is sincere and genuine, they are happy to dispatch a patrol officer to check out the suspicious activity.
3. Anyone setting a backpack or bag down in a crowd and walking away.
This should trigger immediate concern. While the behavior could be completely harmless, it is certainly suspicious and could be a prelude to a devastating attack along the lines of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing.
In the wake of that incident, authorities have grown more careful about inspecting bags and purses being toted into major events. But security at local venues may be less rigorous. Police say informing them of suspicious unattended bags, briefcases, or luggage could be a real lifesaver.
4. Suspicious use of social media or the Internet.
Federal officials say the Islamic State (ISIS) and other extremist groups are currently engaged on a daily basis in trying to use social media and the Internet to recruit and radicalize disaffected citizens. When police earlier this year got a tip that a young man in Ohio was engaging in suspicious activity on social media, it apparently helped thwart an ISIS-inspired attack on the Capitol. According to government documents, an informant notified the FBI that the suspect, 20-year-old Christopher Lee Cornell of Green Township, Ohio, was using an alias on Twitter accounts to express support for violent jihad.
The FBI says Cornell planned to detonate pipe bombs at the busy Capitol, then open fire on bystanders and responders during the ensuing chaos. Immediately after making that arrest the FBI issued a bulletin to local law enforcement that read: “Terrorist group members and supporters will almost certainly continue to use social media platforms to disseminate English-language violent extremist messages.”
5. Purchases of suspicious supplies.
There can be a fine line between purchasing materials for ordinary use and stockpiling dangerous or suspicious items — explosives, weapons, and ammunition. Actual planning of an attack can involve more subtle purchases: Maps, uniforms, body armor, flight manuals, how-to books, materials needed to make passes or badges, or the equipment used to manufacture identity-related documents. Whether a purchase rises to the level of saying something to law enforcement probably depends on context, and intuition regarding the individual involved.
6. Attempts at impersonation.
It should go without saying that people trying to pass themselves off as someone they’re not are inherently suspicious. Beyond Halloween or some harmless role playing… it’s difficult to imagine why any legitimate person would want to look like a law officers, soldier, or company employee when they clearly aren’t.
7. Unusually large or heavy bags.
If someone has difficulty hefting a backpack, that could be unusual. According to SecureTransit.org, a website funded by the Department of Homeland Security, you should be mindful whenever people appear to be commuting with an unusually heavy or large backpack, gym bag, or other luggage. This would especially be a concern if the bag were to be abandoned.
Also suspicious: Any attempt to store a bag in a compartment other than the one the owner is riding in.
8. Unusually bulky, loose-fitting apparel worn in hot weather.
In countries like Israel where security is paramount, officers are trained to spot people whose clothing seems out of place or disproportionate to their body type. Increasingly, that’s a concern U.S. officials are talking about as well, because thick or baggy clothing can be used to conceal weapons.
9. Any sign of tampering.
It might not be a person you need to report, but a situation. Exposed wiring, strange smells, leaks, or any sign of potential tampering, especially on a bus or train, is something you should consider reporting. And authorities definitely want you to let them know if anyone appears to be tampering with safety systems, electronics, surveillance cameras, or other equipment.
10. Suspicious or abandoned vehicles.
Remember New York’s Times Square bombing attempt in May 2010? A street vendor spotted smoke coming from a parked SUV, and alerted the NYPD. It turned out the vehicle contained an improvised pipe bomb, gunpowder, gasoline, and three 20-gallon tanks of propane. Authorities later said the bomb would have caused a massive fireball, intense shrapnel, and many casualties had it gone off.
It can be difficult to know whether a car is simply parked, or has been abandoned. The important thing is to be cognizant of the potential danger, and to let police know immediately if you see something unusual.
One last bit of advice from the experts: Trust your instincts. No one is better equipped than you to know what does or does not belong in your immediate environment. Odds are you’ll sense when something’s just not right.
One Department of Homeland Security video describes the act of “seeing something” this way: “It’s when you experience a moment of uncertainty. Something you know shouldn’t be there. Or someone’s behavior that doesn’t seem quite right. These are the moments to take a pause. Because if something doesn’t feel right, it’s probably not.”

Then there is the unseen foe to our free societies' greatest threat: China!!!
The turn of the year 2020, our lives as we knew it changed. Perhaps permanently...
As of late March 2020, China has re-opened the wet markets...
China is NOT our friend! That is, more specifically the Chinese Communist Government! They have been an economic and military threat, but now through their inaction on closing wet markets, which are absolutely hygienically inadequate, not to mention the intolerable, inhuman treatment of animals, but it would now seem, because of all said: it is a THREAT to us!

The Chinese virus more likely man made/instigated?
There is more and more evidence coming out now, and hopefully more, that the Chinese Covid 19 actually originated from a Chinese lab. Specifically, from a lab precariously close to the Wuhan markets! When the virus got out, the Communist Chinese government has been trying to conceal their dereliction!
We need to begin, AND CONTINUE, to decouple ourselves from China. Unless China, specifically its government, makes correct and appropriate changes to circumvent and eliminate the threats and issues previously stated and presented here! Otherwise WE WILL be faced and hit with another Chinese virus! One that our free countries will not be able to get through or survive economically (which to the Chinese Government is a collateral benefit to them), let alone the loss of life!

There are other Leftist enemies right in: Our Backyard - Our Phones - Our Computer!!! Utilizing CENSORSHIP, DEPLATFORMING OF USERS, & NARRATIVE CONTROL!!! They are known as Silicon Valley.
And then there are the sources that were once trusted (Maybe we never could), the (Corporate) Mainstream Media (MSM). Working hand in hand with Silicon Valley and Left/Liberal/Socialist/Communist governments. Controlling (dis)information, comment, and (false)data. And evidence and actions have shown that Silicon Valley and MSM work with, and for, the Chinese Communist Government (Chicoms)!!!

"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves."
