Bunkerville, NV: What Sort Of Tacticool Sunglasses Is The "Contractor" Wearing?

April 15, 2014 | The Fedcoats

In the famous video Historic! Feds Forced to Surrender to American Citizens , I'm curious as to what sort of sunglasses that the "contractor" is wearing at the barricade (1:28 in the video). You can also see his gloves and his wristwatch.

The gloves appear to be some sort of fancy fingerless Gear Queer stuff, also:

[kiryandil]

Any FReepers out there know anything about military Tacticool?

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Look like Oakley Oil Can or Gas Can glasses. Fairly common.

[mosaicwolf]

They are Oakley Polarized “Crankshaft” glasses. I believe they are about $200.00.

Gear Queer

I don't like this term. There will come a day when citizens will have to have "gear" to fight FedGov. You mock what we will soon need. Shooting gloves are useful gear. So can sunglasses be. Don't confuse the gear with the man who wears it. Just because Fedgoons wear and have certain gear, doesn't mean anyone else who does is a "gear queer".

[kiryandil]

We have a winner!

Oakley GasCan sunglasses: $90-$170 on Amazon

I think I might have paid $10 for a pair of sunglasses, once.

[precisionshootist]

I noticed that also. Are the taxpayers footing the bill for $300 custom oakleys so these special forces wannabes can intimidate American citizens? How much do these clowns know about “land management”

[ryan71]

That guy reminds me of some of the special forces soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq over the years. The beard, the dress, even his demeanor.

[Big Red Badger]

Beard ??!!

more like Scrotee

Just as the militarized American police forces have "Hesitate No More" civilian targets for shooting practice, we have to have "Hesitate No More" language for mocking them out of their Gear.

Americans at the time of the Founders certainly used mockery, and they also used tar and feathers.

Since it's now become a "felony" to even breathe on a Fedcoat King's Man, mockery is pretty much all we have.

BTW - I got my "gear", too...

[MrB]

The mercs from Blackwater probably cost us a lot more than $300.

[kiryandil]

The beard is an affectation, kind of like flipping off his civvie Masters back in dot gov.

Make no mistake, though - they're his Masters, still.

[Osage Orange]

I’ve got some Gargoyles ( Balance..)....that are better than those Oakley’s for sale...$50 shipped to you!!

[mad_as_he$$]

I don’t think he is a SpecOps wanna be. Too good at his job. I think he is known as Operator J.

Time Mark 3:42.

[kiryandil]

Yep, They're Oakleys, definitely, and could be "Crankcase" or "GasCan".

The Crankcases go for $150-$200, as you posted.

Could be some anti-laser shades masquerading as Oakley’s...and don’t use Alex Jones sources on FR.

[kiryandil]

Later on in the documentary that you linked, you can hear him talking.

He also talks in the Bunkerville Historic! video. I want to compare the two side by side.

[RandallFlagg]

I wear Gargoyles, too. They don’t make them anymore (I think), but they look like the black Flux model.

[kiryandil]

and don’t use Alex Jones sources on FR.

Yeah, yeah - but this one is famous enough to dissipate Alex's usual gas-bagginess.

I do think it's a hoot that Alex Jones is banned on most serious forums. You think he'd get the hint...

^{High five!}

And _{down low!}

Are there reasons people shell out a Franklin or two for shades?

I'd worry about loss or breakage.
