Summary

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with combat vet (USMC), father and husband Fred as he tells us about the day the police came to his house looking for a man who had just escaped a jail work detail and stolen a police car and how after they left the escapee emerged from under a truck in his yard.  Then we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of thereload.com and discuss two developments in Oregon involving gun and magazine bans. 


Active Self Protection exists to help good, sane, sober, moral, prudent people in all walks of life to more effectively protect themselves and their loved ones from criminal violence. On the ASP Podcast you will hear the true stories of life or death self defense encounters from the men and women that lived them. If you are interested in the Second Amendment, self defense and defensive firearms use, martial arts or the use of less lethal tools used in the real world to defend life and family, you will find this show riveting.  Join host and career federal agent Mike Willever as he talks to real life survivors and hear their stories in depth. You'll hear about these incidents and the self defenders from well before the encounter occurred on through the legal and emotional aftermath. Music: bensound.com

As we were going back, you know, my wife's turned around to go back inside the house,

0:03.8

and I was right behind her.

0:05.2

Then we hear some rustling in the woods.

0:07.1

Kind of early for deer to be walking through the yard.

0:09.2

So I step off the porch.

0:10.8

I walk to the left of the house, and I'm looking, and I see something moving from underneath the old truck.

0:16.6

And he was like, hey.

0:19.2

And immediately when he said, hey, and I saw what it was, I pulled out my sword on.

Well, all righty, gang, welcome back to the Active Cell Protection podcast. I am yet again, your host, Mike Willover, and I am, hopefully still your favorite former Fed. I was one of the good feds. I just want to point that out.

1:11.3

I don't know if I ever mention that or not. Not one of the feds trying to take away your rights,

1:14.1

but protect the country. That was my job. With us this week is my new friend Fred. Fred is from

1:19.1

Covington, Georgia, and he sent in a video, a video of a news story about his video and about the goings on around his home and a news article as well. So it's well documented. And it's a pretty interesting story. But first of all, Fred, how are you, sir? I'm good, sir. How about you, Mike? I'm doing, I'm doing well. We're going to be in a sir match here, but calling each other sir the whole time, but that's okay. That's just how I was raised, right? What's what I was saying to do? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Fred's got people in the background, folks. It's fine. Don't worry about it. They're going to make some noise. We're used to it in the age of Zoom. So, Fred, first of all, I take it from your, the logo on your

email that you were a member of the United States Marine Corps. Talk to us about that. How long,

2:31.0

how long ago was that? And what did you do in the Marine Corps?

So I was kind of inspired, you know, to, uh, join the Marine Corps, man.
