SO WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH JAMES YEAGER?

James YeagerWhile we support the right for private citizens to keep and bear arms, we don’t support dumbasses. Scisson speaks on the latest dumbass who just lost his handgun permit after his rant about how he is going to “start killing people” if the nation advances any further gun control efforts.

 

SCISSON

I don’t usually, in fact, I have never posted someone’s vita, but when some guy says if Obama bans assault weapons  he is going to start killing people, well maybe you need to know about him.

James Yeager, CEO of Tactical Response and also of Tactical Response Gear, Inc. has actually made that threat on Youtube.  Shouldn’t he be in jail or undergoing mental observation or something?

The vita is taken from Tactical Response and here it is:

James Yeager is currently the CEO of Tactical Response which provides tactical training worldwide as well as being CEO of Tactical Response Gear an industry leader in products and service to the tactical community.

From July 2004 until May 2005 James Yeager was on Protective Security Details in Baghdad Iraq. His Team was responsible for the protection of the 8 Iraqi Election Commissioners during the violent pre-election, election, and post election. His Team was also in charge of the physical security of their offices at the Interim Iraqi Government Building and we worked closely with the Gurkhan guard force there. Yeager’s duties as I.C. (on-site supervisor) included acting as a media liaison, coordinating the security force for the building (Contractors and Iraqi), coordinating with the security force for the compound (Global Risk and US Army), and coordinating with the two U.S. Army Force Protection groups for the area (82nd ABN). He also assisted with the planning, advances, coordination, and execution of the many meetings, plane rides, helicopter shuttles, conferences, and trips around turbulent Iraq that the 8 commissions took to set up and complete the electoral process.

May 1996 through September 1998 he worked as a Patrolman and K-9 handler for the Big Sandy Police Department. In the fall of 1998 he was asked to be the Chief of Police. It was during this time he trained and led the County’s first Tactical Team. He held the position of Chief until a new Mayor fired him in May of 2000. He was hired as a Deputy at the Benton County Sheriff’s Office in May of 2000. His duties at BCSO included patrol, Tactical Team leader, and trainer for the Multi-Agency Crisis Response Team. September of 2002 after a new Sheriff came into office Yeager decided the political strife of full-time Law Enforcement was too much for him and he went into private training full-time until July of 2004 when he turned his company over to his Board of Directors to go to Iraq.

 

January 1992 through May 1996 James Yeager worked with various Drug Task Force units as well as many local Departments’ Narcotics squads buying and selling illegal narcotics in an undercover capacity. He specialized in deep cover operations, used fictitious names, and moved frequently. The agencies he worked for included, but were not limited to, the 24th Drug Task Force, 23rd D.T.F., 27th D.T.F., Paris Police Department, the Henry County Sheriff’s Department, and the DEA. He made hundreds narcotics buys and sales during this period and still continues to work in short duration operations as needed.

Uh, hello, Jim.  Earth to Jim.  It’s a no no to say you are going to start killing people if something you don’t like happens, especially when you seem to have the skill, means, and motive to do just that. 

Uh, hello, ATF, my old friends who proudly put me away back in my youth, shouldn’t you guys be checking this out…or might he be a bud?

Making threats is nothing new to James who according to Walls of the City is on record saying that anyway he calls him a coward to his face will have their back broken (check it out).  Notice, I am not calling him a coward.  I don’t need this nice fellow at my door today.

Anyway, Mr. Jim doesn’t want to start killing people all by himself to defend his “gun rights.”  As you will read below, he wants others to join in on the fun.

I wonder what would happen if this guy were one of those damn left wing anarchists, or say any African American.

TPM reports that  Thursday, an employee at Tactical Response told them  the company would not be issuing a separate response to the video.

 

“We’re going to let him handle all that,” the employee said. 

 

 
I bet.
 
The Raw Story sums it all up with this:
 

After the Drudge Report likened Obama to Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin on Wednesday, pro-gun conservatives expressed outrage over the idea that the White House could act without Congress.


“Vice President [Joe] Biden is asking the president to bypass Congress and use executive privilege, executive order to ban assault rifles and to impose stricter gun control,” Yeager explained in his video message. “Fuck that.”


“I’m telling you that if that happens, it’s going to spark a civil war, and I’ll be glad to fire the first shot. I’m not putting up with it. You shouldn’t put up with it. And I need all you patriots to start thinking about what you’re going to do, load your damn mags, make sure your rifle’s clean, pack a backpack with some food in it and get ready to fight.”


The CEO concluded: “I’m not fucking putting up with this. I’m not letting my country be ruled by a dictator. I’m not letting anybody take my guns! If it goes one inch further, I’m going to start killing people.”
