ANGRY WISDOM with Vietnam Vet and Legend Clint Smith + Funny Intro

[@icitrom]

"When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years." -- Mark Twain

My father had a sign in his office (which I now own): "Teenagers are people who will someday be as stupid as they THINK their parents are."

[@Resistculturaldecline]

My Western Civilization teacher had a sign that read, "Teenagers, do everything you need in life while you're still this smart."

It was amazing how smart my dad got as I got older. I told him once that he was stubborn. He said, "I'm not stubborn, I'm always right". Pretty much covers it. What I wouldn't give to hear him say it again.

The TRUTH about the Chicken. From Clint:" With John's permission he told me I could post here and so here is the chicken story. We know a very good ER doc that was working one night in San Diego and a gentleman came in with a trench coat on and he said he had an "issue". THE ISSUE was he not able to remove HIS pet chicken..from his privates. Now the BAD part.. he was UPSET that his favorite chicken was killed during the removal from his privates. So there ya go ...There ARE Chicken rapists out there in the world. Tip for the day...Don't be a chicken rapist ..Clint"

[@bobbywhite6365]

I screamed through the boards Noel what the phuck you doing... he called me uncle because I was much older. he said unck don't say anything .

I know it’s an older video but I’ve been on a Clint Smith binge for the last three days.

[@J.Walker88]

Kinda like my grandpa. He used to be a very hard mean man. I was homeschooled, and grew up about 100 yards from his house. From literally as far back as I can remember I was (by choice) by his side when he stepped out of the truck till late evening seven days a week. I think it’s fair to say he literally raised me. He worked me hard and his teaching methods were in no way easy or simple. Some would call it abuse but it never bothered me. Many times people ask me how I could stand to be around him. It was simple, he wants things done right and right now, and was very loud and bad at giving instruction. I guess I just learned to interpret and understand what he was trying to say. I’ve always known he loves me and he always would, has, and will do anything for us. The extreme variety of what he’s taught me surprises me all the time. If I run into something he didn’t directly teach me he’s taught me how to figure it out. One of his best quotes is “ if you know how something works you can figure out the problem is and how to fix it”.

You're right, i carry a knife everyday since i was 15, (i'm 53 now). Always on me, never used it until the day when it saved my life avoiding me a fight with 7/8 drunk people... Cause in France you can't bear arms for self defense. Even the knife would have get me in court for using it to defend myself even confronting multiple aggressors... Laws suck in France. But i'm a proud gun owner (3 precision riflles a shotgun two handguns) and fight for my rights everyday... Never let your gun rights away. The second amendment is the founding of your liberty.

There's no interservice rivalry, when my son graduated as a brand new Green Beret, I grabbed his hand and said, "Son I'm so proud of you, and congratulations by the way, you are officially as close to being a Marine that you can possibly be, Semper Fi".👊😎

When my sister graduated Basic, me and my dad showed up in full Dress Blues. They seated us in the VIP section next to a Lt Gen. That Lt Gen popped up and saluted my father with his Purple Heart and Vietnam ribbons and medals. Dad said "Carry on sir, I'll be in the area all day." That Gen damned near pissed himself laughing.

[@djwambach6192]

"Give the Marines more money so they don't get hand-me-downs!" The reason that is so funny is that it is so true. I worked on gear older than I was from 1988-1995.

[@Listener215]

DJ Wambach I probably have the same gear you were issued today, my canteen in boot camp was marked “1972”

[@gage1428]

As a topside sentry on a Trident sub in the early 90s, I had an Army hand-me-down 45...I think it was originally issued in 1911. Clint had a point with the firehose idea. It was probably a more effective option. Close hatch, sound alarm, kiss ass goodbye... pray there was some other security force paying attention. Great video though and gave me a much needed laugh. No chickens were harmed on my watch.

[@msmeyersmd8]

“If you don’t stop imitating me. I’m going to stab you you right in the heart. OK?” Classic. I took a couple of courses with Clint Smith many years ago in Texas. I learned a lot. I learned that I didn’t know shit. His hard exterior, developed through life experiences and learning what works, hides a cerebral thinker. Do Not underestimate the value of that character trait. He adapts his teaching to the student. That is his true talent.

[@thejolly_ranchear8791]

I have 10 days till basic training which is in Fort Sill Oklahoma im really excited but im really nervous I think its mostly because I just turned 18 going in straight out of high school and I come from a town of 500 people. Thanks for making these videos John they’re AWESOME!!

[@WhoWouldWantThisName]

You've got a lot of great times ahead of you. I remember a Delta guy here on You Tube saying that his buddy told him, prior to SF selection, "There's nothing that we do, that you can't do." Now he was already a Ranger at that time, but the point is I could relate to that because through BCT, AIT, NCO academy schools, etc. there was nothing we couldn't do. Challenging? Oh hell yeah! But that guy said that no matter how tough anything seemed at the time, he just remembered those words, and it got him through. Thanks for your future service. You will do just fine.

[@Quentin217]

You are bound for a hassle. However, at the age of 18 and right out of high school, you will probably not have a full appreciation and comprehension of the monumental stupidity of what will be inflicted upon you and those with you. Therefore, you will be able to maintain a more positive attitude. I went through the Infantry School at Fort Benning back in the winter and spring of '82 at the age of 33. I started to learn even before getting off the bus from Fort Jackson that the two most cardinal Army values in real life are cruelty and stupidity. I saw them stressed, practiced, and enforced over and over again throughout my 12-year career in the Army National Guard, Army Reserve and active duty Regular Army. That was most especially the case with the Regular Army. Veterans of previous wars before Desert Storm had told me that all the Mickey Mouse would be forgotten when I got up to where the battle roared. Never happened. It seemed that the powers that were over the company level cared not for anything except that which was petty, Mickey Mouse, and stupid. Their dedication was to maliciously harassing and persecuting the men and entrapping them in violations..

[@sinner175]

This Marine is LOVING the banter (about minute 26)! The interservice stuff is for the young pups that don't know any better. We worked with Navy SEALS and those guys were hilarious!

[@ChristopherKnN]

The thing about interservice rivalry is that is normally just joking. To an outsider or some E1 it could seem bad. And all that goes away real fast on the field. As a Marine I worked with all branches, including some Brits and Aussies. If you're eating the same dirt, you are family.

[@Danafondo]

We had some SEALs in my Airborne class in 1981. Jump school was allegedly their last training needed for full certification. There was NOTHING the Black Hats could do to them, they were sooooo in shape. Their comments and back and forth with the instructors were hilarious and great for morale.

[@dwmorris]

I'm a Cold War/Desert Storm Army vet. Interservice rivalry was a thing then too, but it was all in fun. Between us, we would give each other the shit, but let any civilian harass any any of and it was a united "game on." We're all brothers (including the sisters) and we'd die for each other. And speaking of air support, as the tip of the VII Corps spear in Desert Storm (3/2 ACR) my favorite guy was our ALO. He was a badass airman. I'll never forget the joy and relief of watching the A10's come in low and slow with our AH1's to take out an enemy artillery battery that was dropping DPICM on us. My oldest daughter served 8 years as a Marine. Attending her graduation at Parris Island was one of the proudest moments of my life, but I still give her and the crayon-eaters a poke every once in awhile.

I worked driving for shwans a while back & delivered to many amish families with livestock.

Never got attacked but they really are great guard dogs 😅

[@dragoncarver287]

@ brought me back so had to watch it again. When he talks about being 18 and a jerk...remember Mark Twain " When I was 18, my dad didn't know nuthin. But by the time I was 21, I was amazed at how much the old boy had learned" Samuel Clemens beat him by about a 100 years. Thing is... he probably wasn't the first one to think it...he was only the first one to write it down. lolol have a good one, Bud !

[@ClodiusP]

The ancient Romans approve of your comment. When the Gauls tried to enter the citadel of Rome after the battle of Allia, the geese sounded the alarm, the dogs did not. Every year afterwards, there was a ceremony to commemorate the event. A goose was paraded on a cushion through the city, and a dog was crucified.

Fantastic discussion. I can relate to the tension between an 18/19 year old versus their parents. I'm 40 now, and there have been many times that I look back at myself at age 20 and think how foolish I was. Selfish, arrogant, demanding, and unwilling to yield to anything.

J. Paul Rogers yep. Lol

[@drewschlosser26]

I heard that Clint was once bitten by a cobra and after 3 days of agony the cobra died! G.O.A.T!

[@renhosti]

You heard right.

[@InvincibleExtremes]

"Easy to run your gums when you haven't contributed anything..." truth.

[@billycanas1582]

Mr. Clint Smith is an American hero and treasure !!! Thank You for your service!

[@onedogbowen]

Both of you guys are the “real deal”. It was a pleasure watching you both work together. Thanks...

[@jont9903]

I haven't made it past the intro and my wife is yelling at me for laughing too loud... Thanks a lot John!! lol

[@scrider8464]

One of your best! Your intro was great. Time with Clint talking is gold.

[@Beanmachine9198]

That was hilarious and very informative, big shout out to all branches Remember Everyone Deployed 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@PJOutside]

Finally watched this video after so many others... and I’m so glad I didn’t watch it first. I would’ve been completely ruined. I laughed way too hard through this episode. The magic that happens with John and Clint is perfect, and I’m glad no chickens were harmed in the making of this video.

[@raymondoverson8715]

Amazing laugh out loud interview. Tons of respect and love for both of you. Thanks so much for your service and all you do. Great work.

[@lesjames3221]

All I can say is wow!!! Thank you

[@gojoe36]

I have bought Clint's DVD's and watched him......John...this guy is truly one of the best for a common civilian. What I learned from those DVD's I still would practice today and say to police officers if I were to shoot an intruder of any type. Clint was my guy before I saw you. TAP, RACK, ATTEMPT FIRE.....Tap, Rack, PULL MAG....UNLOAD./....RELOAD....Tap, Rack, ATTEMPT FIRE

[@jordanaraujo2579]

Awesome conversation.

[@chriserickson4417]

I love it, the interview/video was great. Thanks for the video!

[@MTMILITIAMAN7.62]

"I'm a pretty nice guy. I own a goose..." LMAO! Fucking Clint Smith! Thank you! And FYI, Marines have always been instrumental in the development and implementation of Close Air Support. They were on the forefront of these tactics when the technology was in its infancy, going clear back to the 1920s in Nicaragua, and has always been a priority to them. Other services viewed aircraft as primarily a means of deep interdiction and favored long range bombing raids behind enemy lines while Marines were constantly trying to get assets for support missions. Close Air Support is something the Marines have always been good at and cared about. Semper Fi!

[@GWOTUSMC0311]

You guys are awesome!! Semper Fi.

Political correctness is destroying this amazing country, lord help us all...

[@tedsell1455]

Bunch of whiners and cry babys

[@juniorthompson6085]

God Guns and Guts we need a refresher course folks

[@travisb7868]

Truth!!

[@EBR1]

@shlomo kikebherger Yes, psychologists created it. Political correctness grew right out of the psychology profession. They are the ones who advocated "sensitivity" and extreme concern for the "feelings" of others. etc. They are also behind the "hands off" approach to parenting that lead to the generation wimpy, helpless, immoral Millennials. It amazes me that nobody ever talks about all the "Social movements" and "Social philosophies" that grew out of the psychology profession. These people have a lot to answer for and nobody is holding them accountable.

[@FreedomInc]

There is alot of things destroying this country. I would put welfare and rights being treated as privileges above political correctness in terms of what is destroying the nation. We are encouraging inferior Genes to breed and have to qualify to protect ourselves.

[@williamh9100]

Clint and John keeping it real. That's good stuff. Both of you guys keep up the good work.

[@leevancleef150]

One of the best videos I have ever watched. God Bless America 🇺🇸 and the people who made/keep it Free.

[@greenbriarhomestead1273]

Warrior Poet Profile: Clint Smith I could definitely see Clint having a pet velociraptor. 🦖

[@michaelholts1598]

Greenbriar Homestead and it would think he’s daddy.

[@a.gunguy1054]

[@JoshBenware]

Exactly what Clint said "people are way too serious"...i think they are the definition of tactitards. The types of guys that make most people not want to train.

[@JoshBenware]

Steve Bruce I do train. I've done 12 or 13 classes so far. I've talked to people who were anti training and have changed their minds, because I didn't come off as some stuck up my own ass, holier than thou tactitard that can't relate to people without training. To clarify, I'm talking about the extreme morons that say crap like "You shouldn't even carry if you don't get training" and try to force it on everyone. The guys who take themselves way to seriously because they think they are superior, when the truth is that some nobody punk could take any of us out if the circumstances were not on our favor. But, yes, you are right that some people will just never train...most people will just not want to or will procrastinate and never do it.

[@midwesttroubleshooters9284]

Steve Bruce "tactards" I'm stealing this

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

John, I'd never come across you before, and tbh it's only the 'legendary Clint Smith' that made made interested, but you're an excellent interviewer. Let the interviewee talk is what matters, and of course some nice interjections from yourself. Great stuff, and hello from the UK.

[@WarriorPoetSociety]

Thanks! Clint is a stud

[@jamesdean4349]

This is your best video ever. Clint is a legend

[@patrickmaley5539]

I've watched this video about a dozen times... the best! Thank you both for the wisdom. Please teach me how to fight!
