And every month or so or every few weeks, you know, it's near your house and they send you a bag and a shovel and you could, you know, scoop it up. And then quarterly, you just report back.

And then my neighbor across the street said, well, wait, what are you doing there?

I just did easy math, Kathleen. I took the 5% resistors. I just subtracted that from the 100%. And again, you could still be a responsible gun owner in... and do what I say, not what I do, but that would be more amenable, that they're not going to totally resist. Sure.
