Would you like to perhaps save a thousand innocent lives? Maybe more?
I want you to read one book, and then, more importantly, make sure you circulate that book aggressively amongst your “birds of a feather” friends, family and neighbors.
The book is Matt Bracken’s novel “Enemies Foreign and Domestic”.
No, this isn’t some advertising gimmick. JPFO, because of this article, will not be selling Bracken’s book. (But we’ll link you to his website. HERE)
What each of you out there has within reach is a means by which you can pull the rug out from one of the few remaining “false flag” schemes “gun control” orchestrators can launch with any chance of success.
What’s neat about a novel, a work of fiction, is that it can say things that you, yourself, might be hesitant (or even unwise) to utter. “Ahh! It’s just one of those action conspiracy novels!”
Under the cover of a good read, with believable (both likable and detestable) characters, and a thoroughly plausible plot, all you need do is read Bracken’s novel and pass it along to a friend with a question: “Do you think this is possible?”
That’s all you have to do. Unless you choose to wade in and start making some noise on your own. But, even the quiet, mousy introvert can pass this book along with a sincere frown and that question: “Do you think this is possible?”
The premise of “Enemies Foreign and Domestic”? A sniper fires three magazines (90 rounds) into a jam packed football stadium, with a semi automatic “assault rifle”. But in the panic ten times more than ninety die.
The slaughter is meant to at first appear to be the work of your classic “lone gunman”. A shooter is conveniently killed at the scene of the sniper’s nest. Let’s tick off the predictable characteristics of the now identified sniper:
1. He’s white. 2. He’s a Southerner. (Yeah, and a racist.) 3. He’s a combat vet. 4. He’s been having emotional problems. 5. He’s been seen hanging around a local “militia” group. This creates the further implication of a “right wing conspiracy”. 6. And … last but not least … he used a deadly “assault rifle” semi-auto to perpetrate the horrific deed. 7. Oh yes, and he’s now quite dead and can’t tell anyone why he committed this atrocity.
Actually, Bracken spins an even more intriguing can of worms. I’m just laying out the rough agenda here.
And who comes to the rescue, to save America from the millions of bone head, red-necked, racist, inbred, armed “right wing” gun-nuts out here in the hinterland of our nation?
Why it’s that chivalrous, squeaky clean, brilliant group of rocket scientists, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives!
And, of course, Congress, driven by the frenzied lemmings that many Americans have now become, passes a total ban on all semi-automatic rifles … even .22s. Americans are given a short “amnesty” period” during which they can simply deposit their semi auto rifles into conveniently placed (and guarded) dumpsters. At the end of the amnesty period you are looking at guaranteed hard prison time and an absurd fine on top of that. Big reward for snitches. Just like the IRS.
Could it happen!?
Now here is where Bracken really gets down and dirty. He MUST have had a run in with the Gun Goons at one time or knows someone who did. He’s got the type down cold. Written in 2003, during the Bush administration, and well before “Operation Fast and Furious” was a wriggling little maggot in Eric Holder’s mind, the author rolls out a cast of BATFE characters that flawlessly portrays the list of moral afflictions so well represented in the BATFE today.
Really rotten bad guys are vitally important in action novels. You gotta really hate the bad guys. Near the end of Brackens’ novel you find yourself trying to decide between battery acid, piranhas, or gut shooting as the just deserts for utterly foul BATFE Agent George Hammet. And none of those punishments are even on Bracken’s pages!
The President of the United States is a buffoon. And the Attorney General of the State of Virginia just might get what he’s got coming to him, as he rides public hysteria for the vanity and benefit of his political aspirations.
I won’t go into spoilers here. “Enemies Foreign and Domestic” is a good solid thriller with a history-changing hook. The fact that Bracken wrote this before “Fast and Furious” is very eerie.
Oh yeah, minor detail, not all Americans go along with the absurd and unconstitutional gun-prohibition scheme. Quite a few of them don’t. Bracken describes some very creative potential scenarios, that, quite frankly, I don’t want to talk about here.
If word of Bracken’s imagined stadium massacre can spread far enough and deep enough into heartland America, the gun confiscators (who have now certainly proven their moral fiber with the hundreds of dead from “Fast and Furious”) might have to abandon what would have almost certainly been an extremely effective “false flag” operation meant for our near future.
So save a thousand lives. Prevent a stadium slaughter. Matt Bracken has turned the lights on in the roach-filled rooms of those who would rule us.

Congrats! Each one of the Trilogy is a non-stop page-turner (can’t stop reading until finished) work of art (on many levels)!
Ping!
might outta send em a copy of the rest of the trilogy...
Yeah, you got that right. I heard about the deal about 2 weeks before I did operation #EFAD. It came up near the start of March, so I thought March 1-5 would be easy for folks to remember. And it made tracking the metrics easy, coming out to a round month. During the free days, 35K were DL’d. That for sure incresed my exposure. This review by JPFO is really the topper for me.
That’s high praise and mazeltov back at you!
I love hearing that not only the guys enjoy my novels. I really do try to make them have woman-appeal too. Ranya, etc.
Congratulations. One of the best recommendations and promotions. Never Again!
Wow, Travis, that’s fantastic! Proud to know you. :)
35K downloads? *Great!!*
BUMP!!
‘Burn Notice’, and now this.
Congrats!
Ahoy! Matey The Egghead known to some as Fred Fowller steps on board to wish you a hearty Congratulations. You keep on rowin’ and she’ll keep on growin’.
Howdy, Egghead Fred. I know it’s a big deal if you are breaking cover to chime in!
I hope my new series character (Dan Kilmer) has that effect on lots of folks, male and female. One thing I can say for sure is that the Trilogy is finished. I am not going back to that world.
I’ll take it, even a decade later. Sometimes, the era has to catch up with the novel. Fast And Furious makes EFAD seem a lot more plausible.
It was 35K of the free DLs. But I included the first chapter of the 2nd novel at the end of EFAD, so that has led to many more sales. March was by far my best month for all sales on Kindle.
no doubt, but Waco and Ruby Ridge made F&F the logical next step...EFAD seems to be merely *one* of the possible outcomes...
i must apologize, as Ive also procrastinated in the trilogy, and currently am enjoying a tour of San Diego with Ranya and Alex...
i *hope* your fiction doesnt become reality again, to be seen in Hi-Def hindsight across the southwest and the Republic...
