[@armedpatriot8611]

This guy is awesome!

[@ibbylancaster8981]

Thank God he was on our Team. He lives the next county over. I hope that I get to run into him in person and thank him personally for his service.

He's right, "spoiled" is the right label.

[@Hatchetforce]

I worked with Pat at PSSE. He is a hell of a guy, especially if shit went sideways. He was always looking for the solution rather than worrying about how it happened in the moment.

[@irongron]

That was really interesting. Excellent credible presentation by a pro who actually worked this professionally for a living. As always. Good stuff., keep it up!

[@gennerobootz6490]

I love pat I also like how he isn’t your stereotypical former sf guy

[@QuanshengQwin]

He’s not?

[@gennerobootz6490]

@@QuanshengQwin no he’s not

@@gennerobootz6490 Seems like most the guys I know.

[@QuanshengQwin]

Maybe you have a different experience though. Things I'm keying in on are "Clever, has a way of explaining an idea to most people, intensity/passion and motivation." I have a mixed circle of white side and black side folks... he seems very similar and actually knows a few of those guys.

You cant make a more archetypal operator than p mac

[@richardfuller3566]

Pat has this one story where a detail of it was him riding in on a little bird solo. I just can't help but picture him and the helicopter as a cartoon, lighting in the background, and For Whom The Bell Tolls playing lmao

I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for globalist oligarchs. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.”― Smedley D. Butler, War is a Racket , a short book and speeches written in 1935.
