You know, so you're talking about extremely well-trained individuals who are prepared to die and who frankly know what they're doing. And we just we don't think about that. We don't train that way. And again, I'm not saying that to create panic.

I'm saying that that that's just a pragmatic responsibility that in this day and age that we live in, particularly considering our borders been open for four years. How could we assume that has not happened? I mean, even if you didn't have the GWAT veteran reporting that you have.

And I think you have to think about, sorry, I'll just say this real quick. We have to assume, I think another thing is strategic surprise. If you look at, if you just study these groups, they are very good at not just tactical surprise, but strategic surprise, where they surprise the nation. They surprise the larger body at scale.

And when that happens, what follows is a level of institutional paralysis, right? Everything's locked. Everything's paralyzed. And so when that happens, you've got these groups that are capable of what my buddy Dave at the agency calls not terrorism, but horrorism. They're able to bring a level of just unmitigated horror at an interpersonal level, and then they'll even amplify it with body cams.

You know, so you're not a strategic surprise, strategic paralysis, hold ground, mass casualties, that kind of event. We've just never dealt with that here, you know, and and I think we're due. I just do. I don't think that you're going to see one law enforcement officer that I interviewed told me he said I was in. DC for the 9-11 attack. He said I was like two blocks from the Pentagon, right?

And he said, you know, that attack happened, explosion, F-16s flying supersonic just above the treetops. And right over here, the McDonald's was still open. People are still getting food, you know, but yet when the DC sniper, two dudes in the back of a car for three weeks, he was there for that too. The entire city was paralyzed in lockdown.

People on a knee getting gas, you know, kids not going outside to play. And he said, that's the difference. You know, that's the difference is when there's the spectacular thing that's over there, but then there's where you live and you work and you play. And they have figured that out. If you look at their attacks over the last, what, 10 years?
