In part 1 of this series, Miyanovich and Rossi talk about: the gensis of Open Source Defense (and their values), "coming out of the gun closet", the legacy of gun culture negatives, the emerging new paradigm, the realities of the internet, and solving problems by participating with people of all beliefs.

In the last part of this series, Miyanovich and Marean discuss: the human drive to advance projectile technology, the possibilities of a genetic basis for the Human-Weapon Relationship, Curtis' experience with a South African hallucinogenic plant, and Thomas Edison's free-association balls. :)

In part 2 of this series, Miyanovich and Marean discuss: how critical theoretical work takes years, the reality of increased conflict for coastal/riverine hunter-gatherers, the realities of weaponry stimulating progress, tribalism and pastoral conflict, and the effects of sea-levels declining from 190 - 135,000 years ago on South African Homo sapiens. 

In part 1 of this 3 part series, Miyanovich and Marean discuss: getting back into fieldwork after the Covid-19 pandemic, the reality of humans and caves, Miyanovich's experience with caves in Pittsburgh, the geographic reality of the ancient South African coast, ancient advancements in cognition and language and how this affected the weapons reality.

In the final part of this series, Miyanovich and Van Dreal talk about: how the new book can be applied to addressing many issues with kids in school, the current state of JVD Consulting, the importance of John's colleagues, and the effect that Colmbine has had on the national fabric - with a nod to Mark Follman's work.

In part 2 of this series Miyanovich and Van Dreal discuss: the difficulty of collecting data related to "stopping a school shooting", when school systems are reluctant to making their schools safer, the reality of the school to prison pipeline, school systems being too soft on student behavior, and potential bias within behavioral threat assessment systems.

In part 1 of this series, Miyanovich and Van Dreal discuss the new book: Youth Violence Prevention - The Pathway Back Through Inclusion And Connection. The book attends to the latest innovations in Behavioral Threat Assessment in the school environment. In the early iterations of these models, models presented to stop school shootings, too many kids were getting punished due to shit-talking. As such, John's system adjusted to focusing on behavior matching language. Deep human behavior, the denial of our origin as a species, and the potentials of future behavioral prediction are all discussed as well.

In the final part of this series, Miyanovich, Sorum, and Ashe talk about what the near political landscape may mean for liberal gun ownership and discuss LGO focusing on a truly constructive future.

In Part 2 of this series Miyanovich, Sorum, and Ashe talk about LGOFB 2.0 which beings with the big surge in liberal interest in guns, the influx of destructive "special leftists", the establishment of LGO POLSTAT, imagining the possibility of LGO501c4 inside of a shitty beginning, potential for historic impacts, and the era of one-way street "community" ending.

Come join Miyanovich, Adam Sorum, and Jimmy Ashe in this multiple part series on the founding of the LGO Facebook Group. Part 1 is a no-holds-barred talk about how awful the founding period was with both shitty conservative trolls and, more importantly, immature and backstabbing people from our own "community." The boys discuss how idealism about having an open concept was met with the worst of what the internet provides. The solution to this, and the creation of a healthy space was: heavy, no bullshit moderation. Eventually, things evolved...a healthy community became possible.
