Actor. I liked the action and the way they looked. The most anticipated movie of the years. Its brought both excitement and tears. Black panther making major waves at the box office. Here at home a group every local kids able to see the movie free thanks to parks and recreation. Its saturday, february 17th, 2018. How are you . Doing well. How are you . Good. I mean this sweater crazy but a lot of exciting things taking place this weekend. Big movie, black panther. A lost folks excited about that but we have snow. Utoh. Ssnow. Ultimate doppler showing that you system off to the south and west of us around arkansas, missouri, its going to make a bee line right toward the Delaware Valley in fact you can see Winter Weather advisories posted for interior south jersey all of southeastern pennsylvania. Were watching out for a wet snow. Temperatures will be marginal. So some of that snow will accumulate. Then wash away. But heres the bottom line. Main timing 5 00 p. M. To about shortly after midnight on sunday morning. Rain to wet snow several inches possible. Its going to stick to grassy surfaces, the untreated surfaces first. But the temperatures, they will be in the low to mid 30s. So some melting will take place with this system. So well go hour by hour and show you temperatures cold to start. Its dry, its quiet. So get those saturday morning errands done early. The first part of the day. Because rain changing to wet snow once again by four, 5 00 oclock but look at the temperatures. Were above freezing. So it will be that kind of wet snow clinging to everything across the area. So as we go hour by hour, you can see the cloud cover increases by 5 00 oclock. Were looking at rain, cape may, atlantic city, so mainly rain along the jersey shore head farther inland look at that wintry mix from dover to wilmington along the i95 corridor by about 6 00 oclock were looking at some of that wet snow in philadelphia, north and west and you can already see that rain changing over here into parts of south jersey. So any initial accumulating snowfall will simply just wash away for most of us. The exception, parts of the Lehigh Valley and also the poconos. So how much snow to expect a brief coating as you move into places like kent county, Cumberland County also northern atlantic county, southern burlington and ocean county one to three slushy inches i95 before most of it washes away. Three to 6inches as you move toward sections of the Lehigh Valley and the pocono mountains. But lauren, 70degree temperatures are ahead in the seven day. Thats what we like. Scott, thank you very much its. Its a first for Southeast Pennsylvania. Today the doors will open several medical marijuana dispensaries. Sabina is live in keystone shop in devon. Good morning. Good morning lauren. Keystone here will open to the public about 1 00 oclock this afternoon. They had bit of a soft opening yesterday with some private appointments. We actually spoke witness owner and chief medical officer and they told us theyre not even sure exactly what to expect today. They say that there could be a few people or there could be a line out the door. Now, we were allowed inside yesterday. Lets go to video. We were also allowed inside a different dispensary as well that one in sellersville called terra vida. Two out of ten now in the state. About 4,000 of the 17,000 people who have registered with the state department of health have been approved for the state marijuana id card. That is what you need in order to enter the secure part of the facilities. In order to purchase medical marijuana and patients must have one of 17 qualifying illnesses including autism, cancer or hiv. Now we spoke with dr. Louis van der beek of keystone about this new uncharted medical marijuana movement. Heres what he told us. Not proposing that this is a pansy ya for all problems for all people. However, its very clear weve been more than willing to give people medication which can hurt them in the case of opioids which can kill them. We know that this product is a safe product. It cannot cause death and we know that this product can mean a tremendous benefit for many, many people. Reporter and back out here live now, dr. Van der beek does acknowledge some critics say theres not enough research in the effects and benefits of medical marijuana but he says that this new law will allow that research to take effect. Now, again, here keystone chops opens at 1 00 oclock this afternoon to the public no appointments necessary and lauren no insurance either because federal law still prohibits the use of marijuana and that super seeds state law. So everything will be out of pocket. Back to you. All right, sabina, new day for our state. Thank you very much. And last night, President Trump and the first lady made a visit to Broward Health north to pay respects to three survivors still being treated from a valentines day school vat shooting they think the medical teams who worked hard to say the shooting victims lives. Only one vick sim still in Critical Condition but doctors say they are improving. Back on campus, students returned for the First Time Since wednesdays tragic shooting deputies escorted Staff Members and students so they can retrieve their belongings like their cars and backpacks left behind in the midst of all the chaos. Its a moment frozen in time for one student. Cops came in, told us we had to leave our bags and just grab everything that can fit in your pock, put it in your pocket and then just put your hands up and empty had to walk single file. When we were leaving the building we saw a lost blood and bodies. Nothing that someone under like in high school or even any age should experience like absolutely just terrible. As the community mourns, Funeral Services have started yesterday one of the youngest victims was laid to rest. 14yearold alyssa alhadeff. And 18yearold meadow pollock. Hundreds to pay their respects and mourn with the families of both girls. Families begin burying loved ones authorities are questioning whether they can have prevented that attack that killed 17 people. Foxs Steve Harrigan live with the latest from broward county, florida. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning, lauren. President trump spent about 45 minutes inside the hospital last night. He visited some of the woun woud students and their families. He also visited Law Enforcement officials here and met with the officer who made the arrest. President had i words of praise for those first responders. The funeral also here have begun the first of 17 beginning on friday. There were two yesterday. One today. Two more coming up as this community really continues to mourn and among that mourning there are many who are outraged that what they say are a number of missed signals by Law Enforcement officials about this shooter. The biggest missed signal is a january 5th call the fbi admits a call to their tip hotline that warned from someone close to the suspected shooter nikolas cruz that the 19yearold was erratic, that he had a gun and that he wanted to kill people. This call was ignored. That has outraged many here inn including floridas Governor Scott who called fort fbi director to resign. Suspected shooter made his first appearance in court his public defender says he he intends to plead guilty to avoid the Death Penalty that is something florida officials will most certainly seek. As for the school itself still not open. And the threeStory Building whee that shooting took place is expected to be torn down and rebuilt. A number of students and their families saying they can simply never go in that building again. Lauren, back to you. All right, steve, tough, tough time for the families down there. Thank you very much for the update. This story has accept shock waves across the country. Bucks county people are protesting gun laws demanding action from lawmakers. From universal background checks to limits on ammunition purchases, banning assault rifles and longer waiting periods before gun purchases. Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick the republican in this bucks County District tweeted, it is incumbent upon all of us to identify the root causes of this senseless violence and move to address it immediately. His staff says hes working on bills to do just that. But theres little desire among Republican Leadership to toughen gun laws. Federal or state. 29 bills pending in the house of representatives. None of which has been put up for a vote. None of us are taking money from the nra on the democratic side and we are going to pass common sense gun safety alleges laying. The rally continued with protesters sharing their hope for action. Theyre fears and their overall sadness. Switching gears to other news this morning. Special Counsel Robert Mueller indicting 13 russian nationals. Three russian entities accused of meddling in the 2016 electi election. Theyre now charged with conspiracy to defraud the us. Conspiracy to commit wire and bank fraud and theft. Documents say they used fake Online Identities to enter fear in that election. Their operations are said to have included support for then candidate donald trump and attacks against hillary clinton. The cdc reporting 22 more child deaths from the flu bringing the total number to 84 this season. They also say there is a chance the outbreak could be leveling out. Its the first week that we have not had any increases in the amount of influenza activities, so that may indicate that the season is peaking. The cdc warns its too early to tell for sure if the outbreak has leveled off either way they anticipate several more week of flu activity and doctors are still encouraging the public to get that important flu shot. Meanwhile, the fight to end the Opioid Crisis continues. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner has filed a second lawsuit against opioid makers. He claims ten different pharmaceutical companies have fueled the citys crisis through deceptive marking.

A canadian family says the video shows the legendary big foot in a forest. So is it the illusive big foot or maybe just a bear . Someone wearing a furry suit . Well let you be the judge of this. But i think this is quite bizarre. Look at this, scott. What do you think. Thats crazy. Hey, if its in canada, big foot can stay in canada. Right. Stay up there. But i mean it does make you wonder like is this a costume . Is it a bear . What is that . I dont know. Look at you. Down there with big foot. All right. In canada it doesnt look like maybe a little snow dusting, right . Yeah. It could look like that across parts of our area. Were talking 70degree temperatures though next week. So lauren if you dont like the weather, stay tuned. Wait few days. Yeah. We are looking at a reinforcing shot of that cold air across the Delaware Valley for your saturday morning. But look at the temperatures today upper 30s. Upper 40s on sunday. 50s on monday. 70 degrees record breaking warmth as we move toward tuesday of next week. So heres the timeline for the snow later on today. 5 00 oclock looking at precipitation moving in. Rain to wet snow several inches a possibility. Its going to stick mainly to grassy surfaces untreated surfaces a lot of it will be a washed away as some of that mixing temperatures will be marginal. Low to mid 30s. So well watch that rain snow line but right now you can see were dry and quiet. But as we go hour by hour, by four, 5 00 oclock, were looking at some of that snow moving in especially north and west. Mainly a rain event along the jersey shore as we watch that rain snow line kind of move a little farther to the north. So once again we could see an accumulatsee anaccumulation of d philadelphia but it washes away. Lehigh valley and poconos will likely see the heaviest of the snowfall totals maybe a brief coating parts of interior south jersey. Maybe a slushy one to 3inches mainly the grassy surfaces untreated surfaces the i95 corridor and then heftier amounts once you move into berks county, Lehigh Valley north of the pennsylvania turnpike. Upper 20s right now in philadelphia. So cold conditions out there area wide. Were in the 20s to low 30s. So cold enough for that wintry precipitation later on today. So as we go hour by hour, were watching that moisture move in and that rain changes over to that wet snow. The Weather Authority seven day forecast showing you look at the 70s as we head toward tuesday. 70 degrees, 72 for your wednesday. Crazy weather whiplash, lauren. Pull out your summer clothes, right . Why not. Scott, thanks very much. 7 17 this morning. A Holiday Party inside a local museum turns into an art heist. Stolen a priceless piece of history. Part of it. As bruce gordon explains only in philly. Hi, im bruce gordon. When i was kid, back in the stone age, we had lots of cool toys designed specific toll provide hours of fun and to put your eye out at the same time. One of my favorites was a creepy little spy device called six finger. I found the old tv commercial on youtube it brought back wonderful memories. Surprise x its six finger it looks like your finger but watch them flip its a secret weapon at your finger tip. Just point and fire, six finger a missile to your friends. The google eyed reaction of those kids to the utility of an extra digit came to mind when i thought about the federal case now underway against a 24yearold bear, delaware, man by the name of Michael Rohan in a. According to philly. Com mr. Rohan in a was attending after hours Ugly Sweater Party at philadelphias Franklin Institute back in december when he decided naturally enough that he needed an extra thumb so he broke one off of the the calvary men one of ten priceless 2200yearold artifacts on loan to the institute from china. Mission impossible this was not. Security at the institute was pretty obviously lacking. As for mr. Owe hannah apparently he spoke openly of the theft to friends afterward. Even posted photos of him with the thumb to snap chat using Security Camera footage the Fbis Art Crime Team fingered rohan in a in a heartbeat. They say he confessed to the crime and led them to the thumb which was hidden in a drawer. Now rohan in a faces federal art theft charges and china which was already a bit under the circumstances see about loaning out these delicate artifacts cannot be happy about receiving one of them back with a damaged digit. This kid Social Security why we cant have nice things. As for his criminal case, i actually like his chances. After all it seems to me hes got an extra thumb placed on the scales of justice. Only in philly. Today in case you dont know is national ax acts of kindsness day. So that means people who take it seriously decide to find a way to do a good deed or may it forward before the end of the day. Thats exactly what the Philadelphia Flyers did when they stepped up to help a little girl who has spent the last two years battling leukemia. Her name is maddie omalley. Shes five years old. Her family has put everything on hold to support her. But in december the flyers in addition to several other charities in our area heard about the familys struggle and earlier this week check out that video. They presented a major surprise to the omalleys, a renovated home. Players, flyers players were there in the neighborhood for the block party along with a lot of other people as they returned to their house. What did you think when you saw your room . I loved it. We play hockey for a living, and this really puts things in perspective and once a year really gives us something to really feel good about. How sweet is that . Maddie has been cancer free for nip months now. So that was another major reason to celebrate. So that brings us to this mornings instant reaction poll. How will you celebrate ran dollar act of kindness day . I was thinking about it at my deck, scott. I said today is the day i are have to fill up and go to the grocery store. Groceries and gas today. Youll pay for someone groceries. Maybe not the whole tab. Maybe ill drop a little bit on the grocery bill. Im going to get behind in you line. [ laughter ] i could give like 20 or 25 to the cashier fort next persons gas. Something nice like that. Nice. Complete stranger make their day. Maybe pay for someones coffee or pay it forward. You never know what people are going through. Just be kind and smile. I agree. You could also cook for some people because you know what i mean . Hint, hint, scott. [ laughter ] next, how the power of music is inspiring confidence and leadership skills for young women in our area. Stay with us.

I love it. Pick your poison. Were talking about dry, cold and quiet to start on this saturday. Winter weather advisories in effect later on this afternoon. The moisture still off to the south and west around st. Louis. You can see that snowfall. Rain in memphis this is the moisture that will move toward the Delaware Valley to give us that slushy wet kind of sloppy snow before most of it washes away especially i95 into sections of south jersey but nonetheless you can see those purple highlighted counties New Castle County as you move toward salem, gloucester, camden, northern sections of Burlington County all of southeastern pennsylvania. Were looking at that wintry mix. The timing after about four, 5 00 oclock shortly after midnight. Were looking at several inches a possibility now temperatures the past couple of days topped out around 60 degrees so the snow initially will main the stick to grassy surfaces untreated elevated surfaces. Marginal temperatures low to mid 30s later on this evening. High temperatures later on today upper 30s. So initially likely starting out as little bit of rain before it changes over to wet snow. That intensity will help to kind of bring down some colder air to support that slushy accumulati accumulation. So sunshine to start out there. The clouds rapidly move in later on this afternoon. And look at the wintery mix especially north and west. Rain a likelihood out of this system down the jersey shore. So not anticipating much in the way of accumulating snow maybe a brief coating interior parts of south jersey before that rain line kind of moves a little farther to the north. Even toward philadelphia washing anything that up a accumulates away and you can see north and west cold enough for that snow to linger the Lehigh Valley and poconos so thats where those snowfall totals will be a little higher. So a brief coating interior parts of south jersey. The rain is going to wash most of it away. A slushy 1 inch or so around philadelphia before the rain washes things away. Three to 6inches as you move toward the far north and west suburbs north of that pennsylvania turnpike so cold and dry get those errands done early. The snow arriving about four, 5 00 oclock and then well talk about 70degree temperatures in that seven day forecast coming up. Scott, thank you so much. Happening today, its a first for southeast pennsylvan pennsylvania. Doors will open at several medical marijuana dispensaries across the state. Sabina kuriakose live at keystone shops in devon. Theyre scheduled for, what, 1 00 p. M. Opening, sabina . Thats right. Theyll be open to the public at 1 00 oclock this afternoon. And they tell me theyre not quite sure what to expect, lauren. They might have line out the door or they might just get a few patients. But again you dont have to have an appointment to get in. Now as you mentioned some as yesterday. Ough open as early well hear from some patients who are already fulfilling their prescriptions in a moment. But right now lets go to video taking you inside some of these facilities. Where you can see the product neatly and carefully lined up. Theres ten dispensaries now in the state, 4,000 patients who qualify for the state medical marijuana id card. The patients must have one of 17 conditions including autism or cancer. Now, our big anderson spoke with patients outside dispensary in bethlehem yesterday that opened and they spoke of the difficulty of obtaining marijuana for their medical needs in the past understandably now those patients relieved that this new law makes it legal. I was a Church Leader, i really really cared for my church and my Church Family and i was ex communicated from that church for my use of marijuana. Better than getting it illegally on the streets we we all have to do. Reporter and back out here live, now, again, you do have to register with the state and you get an id card. Im told it looks like a drivers license with a photo id and that card is actually whats going to get you into the secure part of the facilities to purchase the medical marijuana. Now, critics say that there hasnt been enough Research Done into the effects and the use of medical marijuana. But advocates say this new law will actually make that research possible. Lauren .

But one woman came to her defense writing, i just spent the last 20 minutes reading through tweets directed at lindsey von sickened and disgusted once again by the lack of human that the that engulfs our country.

Whatever do you this weekend hope off great t the fact markets go up and they go down. So your 401k sometimes may not look so good. Heres a few tips. On how you can stay sane when the markets are going crazy. First, you have to ask yourself, are you a trader or an investor investors like most of us think in terms of years or decades. Things like Retirement Savings or college. Traders they have the Attention Span of a nat. Their day trading your 401k probably going to be eating cat food when you retire. Next, if you are an investor thinking about the long term, youve got to tune out the noise. Listen, ive worked on wall street for more than 20 years. I work with some of the best and brightest minds out there. Heres a dirty little secret. They had no clue what the market would do tomorrow. Tune out the noise, youll be better off. In the old days you would get a monthly statement about your invest manies your 401k by the time you got it it was ad old news folks are using their portfolios. Delete the portfolio app. Look, all investments every single one has some risk. Some things keep you awake at night. Some of them might be kind of fun. But your investments should never keep you awake at night. So instead build a longterm plan, work with someone that you trust, be diversified, all those rules and mostly go back and checking your sports scores. Im cashing out. Dry, quiet and cold for now across the region. The sun is out in some locations. But the clouds will thicken throughout the day. So run those errands early on this saturday upper 30s for High Temperatures today. Upper 40s on sunday. Monday president s day 52 degrees. Then look at tuesday. A High Temperature of 70 degrees. So the main timing were looking at four, 5 00 oclock, that my moisture moving in through shortly after midnight. Several inches a possibility but its going to be a slush sheer accumulation.

Scary situation ends with hugs and smiles in yesterday afternoon Wagner Middle School was on lock down for four hours after reports avenue gun was at the school. It came after a 13yearold girl saw another student showing off a gun outside the school she ran inside told School Officials which led to the lock down. After two intense searches police found a plastic toy gun that shoots plastic pellets stashed by a radiator. It was a tense moment fort entire community. You never know what its a false alarm or if its for real. Im happy its a false alarm. Wed rather be out here all day if we have to be make sure these kids get out here safely. Sources say three, 13yearold boys admitted to hiding the toy gun. No word on if theyll face any charges. This is the 81 is the school lock down in philadelphia this year. And it comes shortly after, you know, what happened down in florida. Speaking of schools and guns. Nikolas cruz has confessed to killing 14 students and three educators at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School this happened on wednesday. Students who knew the 19yearold say they werent surprised. Cruzs social media showed off his obsession with guns and knives. Comments posted about killing animals and talks of doing target practice in his backyard. In a time of seeing is Say Something the question remains, how much do we share with our kids . Dr. Jenna, is here to explain. So let me start with that. With the see something Say Something. We were talking about this story throughout the newscast, a woman tweeted us and she was saying when you hear see something, Say Something and you actually do you hear the fbi drops the ball d that discourage children from wanting to come forward and actually Say Something . Yeah. You know it may. Um, what i want kids to know and i think parents to tell their kids is to not let that be what stops you. They did the right thing. As kids as civilians we can only control what we can control. They did the right thing. I think maybe thats something for the fbi to work on wok out on their end of what we have to do to better, um torque better that process. But kids may feel like theres no point but i guess my what i want to you were parents to encourage their kids no matter what, if you see someone posted about violence, if you see somebody posting about killing animals, definitely let anything that has homicidal or suicidal content to their post definitely let an adult know. Heres a question for you. How do we know how much to share without creating and causing some fear and worrying in our kids . When you see Something Like what happened in florida and weve seen it time and time again unfortunately, kids start to become worried about going to school. Right. I mean i think a lot of i think our conversations should be had about mass shooting that we have about substances about Sexual Assault with our kids. I mean we shouldnt shy away from intense conversations, and we really want to do a balance of giving them some tools to look out for for safety. So for example in this like when you go into a school or go into movie theater, just be mindful of where the exits are. Not telling them to not go because then thats fueling unnecessary anxiety, um, but some tips to just kind of keep be able to keep themselves safe maximize their chance of safety just like we sell our kids put a seat belt on at the end of the day we all kind of have to live and tolerate with the uncertainty that every day we leave our house were risking our safety tech nick chi. Technically. Youre absolutely right about that. What signs should children be looking out for in their friends, in their peer, in their classmates or teammates that something might be wrong or there might be trouble brewing . Um, so what the Research Shows as far as the top three things that are related to mass shooters the things they have in common is this cluster history of bullying, social isolation and a history of violence particularly violence against women. So not to say that anyone of those variables, millions of kids are bullied and never harm anybody. Right. Looking out for this cluster of personality traits of history of the bullying, um, history of violence and social isolation, that recipe has been linked to mass shooters. Do you notice in your practice when Something Like this happens or even the situation in West Oak Lane that ended peacefully but that frightens and panics parents and students alike. Do you start to see more kids sort of want to come to you and talk about these things . Thats a great question. I mean because its so fresh, yeah, i think we live in world where anxiety our culture some very unfortunately promoting of anxiety. Were always worried and theres always things to worry about. So with any kind of big tragedy or big big change that happens that provokes some uncertainty, um, yeah i absolutely think well probably see more kids feeling anxious and nervous to go to school. Its good for parents to actually, yorks want to say buy into that but you have to Pay Attention to it. Absolutely. It could really be troubling your child. Right. Like i said you wanted to find the sweet spot between making them feel prepared that they have some tools to look out for their safety. Right. While at the same time letting them know that its important to still tolerate the uncertainty of you can only control what you can control but we have to live our lives still. Okay. Perfect. Jenna, thank you. Youre welcome. All right. It is 8 21. While its important to have the tough talks about safety as jenna just mention, do you or your child know what to do to escape danger .

I think the major roadways will be just wet but once you move north of that pennsylvania turnpike, thats where things will be a little different as far as the snowfall totals expected. Its out of here shortly after midnight. So brief coating. Kent county interior parts of south jersey maybe a slushy one to 3inches along the i95 corridor immediate north and west suburbs.

It will melt upper 40s and then look at the 70degree temperatures as we move toward tuesday and also wednesday so weather roller coaster, lauren. Scott, sadly by now youve likely seen ads like this before training videos simulating what to do during an active shooter situation. Official stress in the event of a mass shooting you should run, hide and fight but when exactly should you during those attack and specifically what should you do . Combat trainer paul whats your name name. Is here to answer those questions with the help of my friend jared. How are you. Good. How are you are you. Good. Lets first talk about this. It depends on where you are when Something Like this happens. Youre going to walk us through those scenarios. Correct, yes. Tell me first off lets start with run. Is that ever a good idea in an active shooter situation. It depends on the distance where the active shooter is. If someone is shooting from a far you hear shots going off, absolutely youre going to run get out of the area. Protect yourself. Hide, gain cover. Okay. Dont think about defending unless youre in that scenario its where your life depends on. Lets talk about that situation when youre face to face with the shooter exactly what happens . I know for a lot of people its an adrenaline rush youre not really thinking appropriately but if youve had Training Like this you can think a little bit quicker. Yes. So if we have a situation where someone is coming at you and attacking the human response is to more or less freeze. You go into this scenario to where do i do . So many things are racing through your head and the fact is you have a split second to react. More or less save your life. And jared walk us through that. If jared is the active shooter end has the gun what would you do, paul. Jared if were in a situation theres an active shooter and hes coming forward with an tack, i have two choices. I can either run and think im turning my back so in this case im more or less guaranteed to be shot. Right. Or i could see the shooter and you got to think, that shot is going line of site that bullet will fly forward. So you got to think well do two active defense the one hand defense im actively grabbing the weapon and two im moving my body out of the line of attack. Okay. At the same time im proceeding with an attack forward and im going to rip the weapon from that attacker. Wow. You got to think thats from a shooters line of sight so now if you have a scenario to where youre a group. Yes. The shooter objective is to inflict as much harm as possible. So if we have a situation where that shooter lets actual dollar it from this end. Okay. Sure. Where that shooter is now facing a group of people. What do we do . I can again either run but in this case all the people in front of that shooter are in danger. Absolutelily. So for me i can attack to where i can walk in, boom, quickly attack that weapon. Okay. And try to take away. You got to think, if more than one person has this mindset of attacking the active shooter, we can all work and get that person down. Unfortunately, in so many situations we hear about so many people trying to protect. So youre Opening Doors and youre inviting people in to try to protect them. Does it ever held help for someone to think maybe to drop down because then youre not in that active line of sight as you mentioned . You got to think. A shooter is going to focus on more or less the torso up. Okay. If were laying on the ground, you know, were out of the line of fire. But now were in situation where if that attacker is in the room, if im down, i have to figure out how to get up. Okay. So we do want to you get down and if that attacker is in an area, we want to be able to move quickly and protect. Okay. Okay. I dont think a lot of people would thinking to after the attacker. To me it requires a lot of bravery. Its scary. It really does. The thing is your life is on the line. Right. Off choice. Its either attack or be attacked. Yeah. When you hear about the situation that happened down in in order, thats a mass shooting because they said it was 3,000 kids at the school. But in that building specifically theyre running that was hallways and trying to get out. Does that cause more of a situation of chaos and not knowing what to do . It is. I mean its completely chaotic and thats what the attacker wants. You got to think everyone is running around. No one is thinking how to react to that scenario. Right. So i mean were all moving targets. Your skills are for specifically if youre in face to face situation with the attacker. Correct. You know where the shots are coming from. Correct. Its not like youre hearing things around you. In if you hear and you dont see the attacker, get out. Hide, cover. Protect. Gotcha. Thank you both. Jared, paul. We appreciate you guys coming in. Absolutely. All right. 86 break and well be right back hello, peco. Hi. Can you help me save on my energy bill . Old appliances. Like a hot water heater . Its around here somewhere. Nope. Nope. What is this thing . Sir, have you looked in the basement . Huh. Oh, yeah. No wonder. It was hidden behind all of my free weights. If youre not an expert, peco can help.
