If they have to go into the neighborhood, they're going to arrest that person and they're going to check everybody that's around them. And that's, as you know, Dr. Phil, I mean, In California, I can only speak for myself as governor. We've, we've cooperated in that respect with folks that are in custody in state prisons, over 10,000 specific examples of, of that kind of cooperation. So not a lot of daylight on that. I guess I'm just more concerned about the larger rhetoric that everyone's here, quote, unquote, illegally, which I get on the technical terms. (25:18–25:32)
