Well, there's been some reports about some bad actors going on and targeting. It seems to be conservative influencers or a group of people sort of associated with conservative politics. One is a host at Infowars, Chase Geithner. This, of course, comes our geyser. This comes on the heels, of course, of, I believe it's a separate incident, but of course, a horrific murder of an Infowars staffer a couple of days ago in Austin. But then also, and this is, you know, kind of new to me, I'm just coming to it, but Sean Farash, Gunther Edgington, and potentially others, people are asking, texting me, saying, hey, you guys okay? And my parents, people know, were swatted a year ago at Christmas time. And since then, the Individual who did that. I was going to pull up the case a second ago, I was just looking it up. Was actually found and extradited to the United States. It was actually a foreign case. But you know, I guess some, this guy thought that, thought that he could get away with it, but he could not. And so it seems to be there's another round of swattings that's going on right now. And honestly it's, it's something where I'll just put it like this. This needs to be looked at for what it is. The reason that these are done is because they want the police to go in there guns blazing. They want to generate, particularly when you're targeting conservatives. A lot of us are gun owners, a lot of us are strong enthusiasts in exercising our second amendment. I know I certainly am. And so they want to create a situation that could lead to a potential fatal incident or fatal harm. So when I look at these swatting incidents, they could go sideways very quickly. Now, of course, what's great with, with my situation is that we've been, you know, very, very close with law enforcement. Our law enforcement has been great in terms of this, in terms of the response once you realized what was actually going on. But this needs to be looked at from a federal level. And we got Cash Patel over at the FBI, we've got Pam Bondi at the Attorney General's office. And by the way, I've always said this and I've been very clear about this. I don't care. What side of the political are you on? This is something that docked. This is why doxing is so evil. This is why swatting is so evil in general. Because it can lead to killing, it can lead to, it can lead to fatal outcomes. If someone's not getting knocked at the door, they don't know what's going on. That, you know, people do a no knock rage, these types of things. So sometimes they go, they go very smoothly and sometimes they don't and it's happened in the past or, you know, someone who doesn't know what's going on, answers the door. All sorts of things can take place. So look, I, I'd say this to anybody though, who's, you know, who's in this situation or if you think you might be in a situation like this, make sure you be proactive. Call local law enforcement, get on the books with them. Find out whoever the local shift, who, you know, whoever's running the shift on there and you know, tell them, hey, you know, I might be a potential, I Might be a potential target of this, or this might be something that's going on. You know, try to, you know, hopefully have some friends in your local community and local law enforcement. I know I certainly do. And that's something that helped us a lot. And there's also, by the way, I'll say this as well, there are services out there. So a lot of these, A lot of these pull from those publicly available databases, everybody knows about them, where you can look up people's addresses and things like this online. Well, there are actually services that you can get and pay for. You know, I'm not advertising any here, but just go and look into it yourself where you can go and get it. And it's, it's, it's a little bit of money, but it's not that much money actually, at the end of the day, where they can run real time monitoring and actually get your information pulled down from those websites on a rolling basis. And then sometimes, like, if, if it gets leaked somehow or even. And it includes, by the way, other pii, like email addresses, phone numbers, you can get family members on there, et cetera. So I get that. I pay for that for my family. And that's something that's helped us really, really well get it down from those, those public sites. It works great.
