You know, I mean, so now they think of it as, you know, I hope that other population groups do not get a false sense of security. In other words, our safety. In other words, you know, if my kids are white. OK, well, not a problem. They're safe. But think about that.

You know, Tom, you've been involved in the prevention arena. I mean, for many, many public health issues. So reflect on what Anthony just said. You know, it's like, you know, you and I know prevention is a tough game. It really is. And I've often said that prevention isn't as sexy as intervention, okay? And so what's your sense, Woe, these years?

And so what's your sense, Woe, these years?

So Tom, what about the idea of something, I'm just trying to think creatively here as far as prevention is concerned, community conversations around safety, frankly, maybe in general, that, you know, so in other words, it wouldn't be just focused on gun safety, which might just keep people away just by the mere title, but safety overall.

And then within that conversation, you included gun safety as one example of things that we should be doing to make all of us safer. Is that even feasible?

Anthony, what do you think about that? Community conversations around a generalized topic of safety that would include gun safety so that people wouldn't necessarily be turned off by the subject of just gun safety, but just generalized safety.

Yeah, yeah. And you truly understand it. Yeah, Tom, go.

Yeah, yeah. And you truly understand it. Yeah, Tom, go.

You know, it's interesting, and I'm sure Anthony and Tom, you can reflect on this. It was only, what, maybe a couple years ago now that data from the Centers for Disease Control was allowed to be analyzed and looked at in order to start assessing gun violence, and then consequently gun safety, which is mind boggling to me personally. I mean, it's just like, what the heck here?

But at least now we're starting to get the information out, like all the different research and the statistics, and maybe just that would be the common denominator of knowledge in order to get the conversations really going nationally, I think.

Right, right, right, yeah.

Right, right, right, yeah.

Good idea. Anthony, last thoughts.
