00:00:05 Speaker 1: The last episode of bear Grease was on the drowning of Oklahoma Wildlife Officer Melvin Bucky Garrison in nineteen seventy one. The story that we’re going to tell today goes separated by forty four years, is eerily connected. It’s the story about the use of lethal force and the legal precedence of water as a means of potential murder.

Editor’s Note:   This article was originally published by Birch Gold Group.  It is re-posted with permission. In a system dominated by Keynesian economics the word “deflation” is considered taboo; like saying Donald Trump’s name out loud in a crowded Seattle yoga studio. The screeching reaction you will get is rarely worth the effort of arguing the point. Every element of modern financial policy is designed to prevent a deflationary event.
