the security is still fairly shitty. We'd do 12 mile run swim runs a lot on a certain east coast navy base... and well.. I'm not taking my fucking ID with me and risking losing it. Even if my shorts had a little pocket. Sneaking back on base at the waterline was about as challenging as sneaking out of middle school between periods. I'll just say not once did any of the troop run into any problems. Eventually one of the officers tattled and they got a bus and made us run to the bus so we'd stop having to sneak in. Damn responsible officers spoiling all our fun. Once we had a new guy, on his first fucking day, get on the wrong bus and be taken back to the wrong team building. That was fairly hilarious. We made him run with a compass for a while.

Navy Seals are state killers, who do a satanic blood ritual to get into the brother hood called pinning; watch video "Slayer Saints: Pray & Slay" on channel Giureh. Navy Seals kill the good guys all over the world for this corrupt Freemason Government in the US; the Taliban in 2000 forbade the Opium, so these Navy Seals were sent to kill the Taliban, and now since the US has left Afghanistan, the Taliban has forbidden Opium again. No wonder, this Navy Seal robbed banks, as they are a criminal killer organisation anyway. By the way, I was in Afghanistan working for the Government, and I saw it all. We are being ruled by a foreign power, that has become domestic and has taken over all key positions in society, and their very first weapon is the lie.

It was the adrenaline and running from dangerous situations as a former Special ops. The civilian life sometimes triggers the brain’s capabilities for heightened dangers. PTSD is part of the reflex conditioning that even professional athletes and inactive former agents attempt at neutralizing, but unfortunately it becomes hard as time and training prove otherwise. Even muscles and nerves get constantly conditioned to reactivate the Memory training that civilians never succumb to. In other words, they were programmed to be thrill seekers just the same as airplane parachuters get conditioned to jump from 2000 feet, then 1000 feet, etc. The body remembers the feeling and sometimes requires it to stay sane.

It certainly may have been a factor but I find it hard to believe that was the main factor, if one at all. He only "got away" with $60k or so total, and if you subtract the one that got him caught, I think that was closer to 12k. And while this could be the very reason he kept doing it, my counter would be he simply wasn't very good at it, or he had other motives, as I can't imagine many people hitting a bank and only getting $2k and then not only trying again, but hitting that exact same bank.... That's just no where near worth the risk of robbing a bank, and after 4 attempts, he had to know his luck was running out/the search for him was getting bigger. Not to mention how insanely inefficient to rob that many and only get that much. I'd have to look it up, but it might be the record for THE least efficient, and definitely one of the least efficient at least. I guarantee his personal training business had to be bringing in a pretty damn comfortable amount if it was as successful as depicted (unless things had recently fallen off a cliff). Not to mention the money possible in the private security sector. And none of that factors just how careless he was, especially for someone so highly trained. Using his personal vehicle at even a single robbery, nevermind five, is too dumb honestly. This was late 2017, so he had to know there would be camera evidence. He should've been using disposable vehicles not registered to him that he disposed of each time. Not checking for trackers, or even not knowing most banks mark serial numbers is also just way too careless, period. Especially when he proceeded to hold onto the money, in his private residence and his personal vehicle, which again, he had used as the getaway! And it's just chilling in his front driveway with both the trackers and the money still in it.... Anyone smart would've turned that money into another form of money/valuables that couldn't be linked directly, and even then had it hidden. He surely even had the contacts to make this happen, but simply didn't even try. So, he either just wasn't very bright, or the motive didn't have to do with profit even. It's really bizarre and something I definitely wanna look into.

While I know this may not be a popular opinion, and I'm definitely not trying to say it applies to across the board as that's certainly not the case, but many military members- especially special ops- profile very similarly to criminals, and often do turn into them. Or at the very least, would've had a higher chance than normal had they not found a better outlet. Many who join do so due to being adrenaline junkies or other similar things that mentally tend to drive people to just crave "something more", oftentimes with that being flat out violence. As someone who graduated with a degree in criminal justice, I can't tell you how many of my classmates went on to be swat members etc who would often tell me how "boring" their week was because the "best" thing that had happened that week was a drug dealer robbing a gas station pulled a gun on them or what have you. And you can just hear the disappointment in their voices when they say this. Which I always thought was a kinda disturbing thing to want something more exciting- i.e. more dangerous- to want to happen in the line of duty. Which ultimately, it's definitely better to have them on the right side of the law, it's ultimately just a bad mindset to have regardless, and that proves the point that who knows what would happen if they didn't have a "legal" outlet to direct that energy. Also, and this will be the the least popular opinion, but I've simply seen it many, many times, and that's that a lot of people who join the military just aren't the best of people and join because their lives literally have no other options. And again, it's better this then them not doing anything productive with their lives, but I've also seen many of these types go on to use their military resources or situations they're put in to just commit crime while having a good cover. This is less often anyone I've personally known going special ops, but again not only does that likely happen too, it also doesn't take away from the point being made.

I respect the hell out of passing navy seal training and for his service. But his expertise and training wasn’t in robbing banks or law enforcement tactics. It was military and combat tactics. For many years as a law enforcement officer, I worked and trained with a few former Navy Seals, and quite a few Army Rangers and hardcore Marines etc. I made calls with them in the field, participating in SWAT training, rappelling, EMT training and such. They were fit, but not large men. Usually they were sharp and mentally tough. But with that being said, they made mistakes just like the rest of us. They are just people. And when your on top of your game during your career, your train to stay sharp. But if you don’t stay in that environment, you lose the edge. I have no idea what or why he decided this was the best option for him. Not sure he could tell you, really. Maybe he developed PTSD, mental illness or an addiction. I can also tell you of an officer that was a former contractor in Afghanistan, very well trained operator. He participated in many firefights allegedly during his tours. He lasted only a short time in law enforcement and resigned after being reprimanded for excessive force. He said it wasn’t for him and went back to the field to make more money and where he was comfortable. He said it was so much easier and less stressful to him. The job was simple, go out and kill the enemy before they kill you. Not the same rules of engagement in law enforcement. But I will say this much. The very best SWAT or tactical team member I had ever worked with or trained with had no military experience. He came from a hard working family farm. He was a survivalist. The dude was a machine, built like body builder with zero fat and could run like a gazelle. One night on our shift he chased a car thief on foot, was shot point blank in the abdomen turning a corner and still chased the bad guy down and killed him. He never acknowledged the pain and was cool as a cucumber. However, he wasn’t a great street cop over all in my opinion. He was just a phenomenal warrior, mentally and physically. So we all have our limitations and what we do exceptionally well.

@@Butch_Deezlsteak Some of you guys just hate cops so much that they can't tell a story w/o receiving an insult. I understand why some people don't like cops (for valid reasons), but you guys need to be reasonable at some point.

I genuinely look forward to your videos and love watching them, incredible content, keep it up!

I'm loving this channel

You are the best, music, mixing outstanding

These are getting progressively better. Excellent storytelling, and edits.

I’d love to see your take on the Sinaloa Cartel surrounding the entire city of Culiacán for the release of El Chapo’s son. The whole situation was something out of a movie.

@@PopoMedic Navy Seals are state killers, who do a satanic blood ritual to get into the brother hood called pinning; watch video "Slayer Saints: Pray & Slay" on channel Giureh. Navy Seals kill the good guys all over the world for this corrupt Freemason Government in the US; the Taliban in 2000 forbade the Opium, so these Navy Seals were sent to kill the Taliban, and now since the US has left Afghanistan, the Taliban has forbidden Opium again. No wonder, this Navy Seal robbed banks, as they are a criminal killer organisation anyway. By the way, I was in Afghanistan working for the Government, and I saw it all. We are being ruled by a foreign power, that has become domestic and has taken over all key positions in society, and their very first weapon is the lie.

Honestly this guy couldve started a business to test the security measures at banks and get paid to "rob" banks legally (of course he would return whatever money was taken and the bank owners would set it up with him without telling the bank employees, and law enforcement would be notified ahead of time) as a way to audit security guards, tellers, managers, and to help police put together plans to make response times faster. Sure, it would have to take more time to make money doing that, but he could have things set up every day, across the state or even the nation, and it could have such a good outcome for everybody.
