for coming. So it is interesting we in South Carolina have been through a lot over the years and just in the last few months. So here we are still in off on international pandemic. And also we've had 42 tornadoes this season, which is a record in South Carolina and now and also almost a hurricane. Hurricane Bertha. Tropical Storm Bertha hit our coast and came inland. And now, as a result of a tragic crime in Minnesota, on top of other things, we are experiencing bad behavior and some rioting, as well as some heartfelt protests, heartfelt conversations and things that we welcome. Everyone ought to be angry. It what happened in Minneapolis with joist flooring? There's absolutely no excuse for that is we all know, and we don't want it to happen here. Also, we know that South Carolina is a a great place. We have been through many things before, and we've come through all of them very well. We have strong people. It was like a family, and we're very proud of that. South Carolina has been through a lot over the years from the beginning, in 16 70 ups and downs, a lot of things and we're strong. People become because of and all. And we welcome conversation. We welcome. We welcome protests. We welcome people speaking their mind, exercising their constitutional right in this country of freedom of assembly, freedom of speech to peaceably assemble and express their concerns. We welcome it and we we learn from it every time. We better because of it. But also we do not tolerate lawlessness and violence and the destruction of property and harm to our people. So we are prepared way are determined to see it. Things level off here in South Carolina, and we do not experience the tragedies that they've had in other places. We understand the anger. We understand the concern. We understand the bitterness, We understand the film well, and we also understand that they're innocent people defenceless, who have sought no problems. It calls no trouble and should not be punished, should not be hurt or have their property destroyed. Their lives of families threatened. So part of what you see his days out of South Carolina family and I need to say this. This is a beautiful Sunday afternoon and we called the people you see here. There's this morning and asked if they some his ladies about 11 30 or 12 oclock and asked if they would come and participate in this and all in order to speak for and to the people of South Carolina and everyone is here is a remarkable group. We have outstanding leadership in South Carolina and their willingness to to come together and participate, particularly on such short notice in such conditions. And this was with the virus. Still, there is quite remarkable. But I'll say before they sent it to Scott to speak, I'll say that we are. We are prepared, were prepared for hurricanes. We prepared for tornadoes. We prepare for for everything. We try to prepare Children for life, always send them to school. We also prepared to stop violence and we have. The low enforcement establishment in South Carolina is, I think, unique in the country. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone is work together. The great relationships, collaboration, communication and cooperation is you've seen it before in hurricanes and things of that nature, and we are highly and well equipped to eliminate or to prevent violence as I hope to prevent violence. Law enforcement all across the state is activated on alert and is ready. And I say to any of those who would do damage to our people who would hurt their calls. Who would destroy property? Who would incite fill in violence? The law enforcement establishment of South Carolina will deal very sternly with you very quickly and very sternly. The federal authorities are on alert. The state authorities are on alert. All of the county authorities are on alert, the city authorities on alert, and we would be delighted to have peaceful protests anytime, anywhere, but not violence. The National Guard of South Carolina is also on alert and will be available around the state as needed, particularly in Charleston, Columbia, and other places as well. And so let me introduce the people that are here with us today, and then we'll have several will make remarks, and then we'll answer your questions. J T MK Low Horn, president and CEO of the Columbia Urban League, is here. Miss Brendan Murphy, president of South Carolina Conference in double the C. D. C. As well Reverend Bishop Samuel Green, seventh District A M E. Church is here, and Reverend Donald Green Jr. Who is the president of the Baptist Education and Missionary Missionary Convention of South Carolina, is here as well. Also, Brigadier General David Jenkins also Major General Van McCartney, both of the McCarty, both of the National Guard. Sled chief Mark Keel, probation partner in Peru. Director Jiri Edger. Oh, DPS director Rob Woods and Sheriff Jay Kun from Lexington County and also Juicy McDaniel, Burkett and Holly May, who were doing the signing. And before we start, I call on Chaplin, Darden to lead us in prayer and Kim Stenson of emergency. Let us pray together. Our father were so humbled today by your presence by all that you're able to do even in spite of the unrest and violence, your God. And besides you, there is no other. So we thank you for this day and they we've never seen before. You are the god of peace, and your son is the prince of peace. And so today we pray for peace in our country and our nation in the world, even though the attack, maybe a hidden phone. But even in this unrest and in this situation, those things that have attacked us and that have come before us have shouted that there are some issues that we've got to address. So today we thank you for what you're able to do. Give us what we need. Give us the wisdom. But all of our getting allow us to get an understanding so that you can be glorified. Violence is not the answer. We understand that rioting is the cry of the unheard. But let us understand that we hear that you understand and that you could make the difference. This is I predator. They change our hearts and our minds bless us in your name. We pray Senator Tim Scott. Thanks, Governor. Thank you for your leadership. Without any question, I am happy to be a South Carolinian. I'd like to say to all of the South Carolinians out there there was a tragic incident in Minnesota. Let us not allow that to metastasize into tragedies throughout this nation and specifically here at home. As I watched the video from Minnesota, my heart broke. I felt anger. I felt fear. As an African American who enjoys jogging and walking and doing things out in society, I wondered how things had changed. And then I reflected back on what has happened here in South Carolina and thinking about the Walter Scott specific murder just five years ago, I thought to myself, What came out of that And I remember going around the state meeting with law enforcement officers at African American leaders with Congressman Trey Gowdy. At the time, we had no cameras, just leaders and law enforcement leaders having civil conversations, how to bring our state together. I will tell you that so much progress can be seen. It is visible today in our state. It's one of the reasons why I have confidence in the law enforcement leaders of this state because they listened. It's one of the reasons why I have confidence of the leaders and communities of color in the state because they, too, listened to each other. If we're going to make significant progress in the state and we are, it will happen because we all take a step back from how we feel and we stop and we listen. Here's what I'm asking you to listen to first. If you are a protester, a nonviolent protester who is selflessly saying enough is enough and they want our voices to be heard. We admire and respect your vigilance. It's what we need. John Lewis 50 years ago helped us make leaps as a nation because of non violent protest ing. But for those who are agitators, for those who believe that violence is a way to take advantage of this situation, that is selfishness. And we, as a state cannot tolerate that. We as a people can not tolerate that. It distracts from the very important issues of this day, from Minnesota to California. Here in South Carolina, if we are in fact going to continue to make significant progress as a nation and as a state, we cannot have distractions, especially fueled by violence. I ask you, I please with you, please conduct ourselves in the most non violent ways Protest. Be hurt. Be seen would be orderly because it's not just your life that you're risking. It's not simply the lives of the law enforcement officers. You're risking its the lives of people that you've never met generations. They may not have even been born yet. How we conduct ourselves creates a pattern and a path to the future. Let's get there together because we are South Carolina strong. Thank you, J came close Thank you, sir. Governor, thank you very much. And to all who are here, first of all, I want to, uh, convince peaceful protesters because protests protest in is the foundation of our democracy. Put protest in desegregated schools, protest and allow people to be able to have country into public accommodations. So protest is as generic to America as our democracy is. I think that when we have the type of protests where we have vileness to me, it tells that we have a broken system. When we think about protests, I think about Dr Martin Luther King Jr. I think about his four step process and dealing with injustice. First, he says that we have to research and find out what is the problem. Let's make sure we know what the problem is. We never problems today. Is that many a prostitute's that have been perpetrated toward African American men by law enforcement? Not all law enforcement, but that isn't a problem. It is a concern, too. And so you he researched essay? Yes, it's a concern. Secondly, you go to the authorities and you have a conversation with the authorities about it. And so apparently, if you can't have that conversation. Did you go to protest? So I think if you take a step back was But we have to do is above some channels to these voices in our community because we cannot tolerate this type of rioted. I recall some of the aftermath of the rights, and after the assassination, Dr Martin King Jr. In 1968 some community was was devastated. They lost the only store they had available to them. They lost resource that they never, ever were able to recapture. So we must do it peacefully. Protest is a peaceful movement, But the reason we have protest because people feel that they'll lock out no one is listening to them. I think I'll challenged in South Carolina is let people know that we have open doors. We have open channels that we can communicate again. I think it's evident by Governor, uh, who similar us together to reach out to the community. So, Governor, I thank you again, Senator Scott, Thank you for your leadership. And it's my pleasure to introduce the distinguished leader of the South Carolina Conference of the Any A C P Mrs, uh, Brenda Murphy. Thank you good afternoon. I'd like to think Governor for allowing me the opportunity to be here this afternoon. Two Senators. Scott, it's good to see you. I'm often in conversation with him. Beer letters. Um, I'm not going to say much today of a van. We've got to engage our young people. They need to be involved. We need to listen to them. A lot has gone on. We're not just talking about George. Floor it. We're talking about the incidents that have happened in Kentucky. Texas Joe. What? You and New York Aiken Go there. A number of incidents have occurred. Fortunately, we have been lucky here in the state of South Carolina. I do want to say that I appreciate on the relationship that the n a a C P has with slid. I can say that with the column in Columbia Police Department and, uh, I'll Sheriff Department. I say that because I feel that they are willing to engage. Is their need to continue to engage more? Yes, we need to We have some challenges. We need to address those challenges, but I want to say I feel comfortable with those that I have to work with. here and I'll state we young people use your boys. It's OK, but make sure you do it in the right way. State what your needs are what your challenges are. But to be destructive and destroy product property and riot is not the right way. We knew to use that energy in such a manner that we can create change. So I encourage young people and some not so young that as you chow a experience challenges. Let's talk. Let's get together. Let's work together as a unit. Uh, to make things happen to the governor, I'm going to ask you to please make sure as activities are being planned for to engage us to engage us. I'm going to ask our policemen in all areas to please please engage us. Because that's how we're going to be able to resolve issues and problems. Governor McMaster, thank you again for inviting me, and I do hope that I have another opportunity to meet with you soon. You. Thank you, Bishop. Samuel Green. Get out the noon into Governor McMaster, Senator Scott, and to all of the representatives here who are sharing in this press conference today, um, I am the father of three young, black and gifted men. I'm also a father who sleeps on the age off fear of getting that phone call that something has happened to one of my sons because they are young like and gift also stand here as the bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, representing all of the A. M E Church is in the state of South Carolina, and I represent what I believe is the faith community leaders of the faith community. Along with Dr Donald Green five years ago, we experienced the tragedy of Walter Scott. We experienced the tragedy of nine persons being killed in the basement of one of our churches in Bible study, prayer meeting and the response of the families shocked the nation. It represented what I believe, the true fabric or what South Carolina is about. They responded in love. They responded in forgiveness. This is a critical hour for the country and a defining our for the church. Silver rights movement was birth in the womb of the black Church. I am a cherry stands on the pillows of a liberating and reconcile ing people. My job has Bishop is to do both. You can't claim to love Jesus and not pursue justice. We do so embracing none violence. But with conviction we don't loot. We lobby our religious leaders. We don't break glass, we break records and strong hose. I go into the ballot box and voting in numbers unprecedented. Instead of violence, we vote. This love stands up for black lives for the oppressed and reconstruct the world. That shall be We could be radical and responsible at the same time. Let's turn the world upside down. Yes, through love and peaceful protests. And let's organize for tomorrow we must recognize that the story on the news now should not overshadow the injustice that happened in Minnesota. Don't let the news cycle tell the wrong story for your protests. Our protest is far injustice. I protest is against racism. Our protest is against the inequalities that plague our communities. And if we are going to be successful, we are not going to reach that success with violence. So I encourage you to protest. But do it peacefully. Protests do not loot and break in other persons, property protests do not fight against one another. Our protests against the evils of this world with violence as your format. This world has come a long way. There are good law enforcement officers, and there are some law enforcement officers who are not good. There are some good people in this world, and then there are some people in this world who are not. But we cannot yet what we lead accomplish when the new cycle is only focused on the burning only focus on the the looting and all other matters that does not pertain are even let Liam up to the level of the cause. We are out there for I to was hurt when I saw what happened in Minnesota to Charles forward but my heart, please, for a modern armory, Sean Re, Rianna Taylor and many others across this world and this nation who have lost their lives because of injustice, injustice in proposed police brutality, injustice and racism, injustice and victory. Injustice in this land. But here in South Carolina let our voices be heard, but let our voices be heard in peaceful protests with strategies to meet after the protesters over with persons like government Mac, Mac, Governor McMaster, Senator Scott, Jim Cry Braun and others in this state who are in leadership positions to put together strategies and programs together there will help us to move forward beyond issues that are plaguing our nation. And remember all of your margin. All of your protest will be in vain if the memory of Charles forward is desecrated value of violence. And also remember, unless we go to the polls, Rial voice would not be heard less protest. But be peaceful. Thank you. I think everybody can see why South Carolina different from other places. I'm so proud of our people and all that we've accomplished, and we are going to accomplish a lot more for all the people. If there any questions, we'll be glad to try to answer him. Yes, ma'am, The National Guard is on alert. They available, if if needed. Law enforcement across the state, in all capacities is standing up and ready to go. People have been called back from leave. We have a lot of a lot of law enforcement authorities enforce its available. We hope we don't have to use any of it, but if we do, it is their violence and destruction will not be tolerated. Oh, and if then the National Guard is available to add to that force if and when necessary. Yes, man. What would you make the call to deploy the national? What? Yesterday, five club governor. What's your reaction to the way police in Charleston in Colombo yesterday? Handled? The situation has escalated. I'm not familiar with all the details. I have to verify that. But I did see what took place in Colombia. I thought it was handled very well. Yes, well, you issue a statewide curfew that remains to be seen. Obviously there are. Some of the cities have curfews already. Yes, obviously, aside from this, we're also dealing with a virus outbreak in the state. There were thousands of people that were protesting yesterday. I'm wondering, is that your recommendation to anybody that went to the protest that they should self quarantine for 14 days or get a Kobe 19 test? Well cove in 19 tests are available throughout the state in over 200 locations, about 60 of them or mobile. You can go to accelerate dot sc dot com and you can find out where they offer anyone wants a test. I have a lot of people who were met wearing mask. There was there was not a lot of social distancing in a crowd. That course exposes people to danger. We have stated that many, many times from this place as well as every other health authority in the country. I believe when people get in crowds like that, they're putting themselves and others in jeopardy. They need to be very careful what we can't. We can't control that. Your recommendation, though, that they do self quarantine for 14 days. That's up to the individuals will have to make those decisions. Anyone who thinks they've been exposed, all the self quarantine. You issued a statement yesterday. I think he used the phrase outside agitators and talking about what led to some of the time. So I think they used a phrase yesterday outside agitators and describing some of the people that may have been behind some of the violence. I'm just wondering if there's no May about it a law enforcement has no doubt about. There's a lot of a lot of very fine people. They're peaceful. People who are is this, Green said. Who are we want to hear their voices. We want We want to know what their issues are what their dreams are. We want to hear A peaceful protest has been a part of this country from the very beginning, but it does not need to resort to violence. But we know from law enforcement authorities around the state of there are people who were not from those cities and then may have even been from all the states. How many? We don't know. You know, who knows? A lot of would know that a lot of innocent people who go that you get called up in whatever is going on in the part of the crowd and oh, and me new home. But you had to end up forming a part of that crowd. If there if there is movement, interstate movement, then of course, that federal ramifications involved there. Would you encourage that we should be made public if we know if, unfortunately, you know that some of these folks are coming from outside of the state If we if we have people coming from other states, South Carolina for any reason, intent on doing harm to the people of property of South Carolina, the low books and full of statutes that address those things, and we will certainly use those as necessary. Yes, man to local law enforcement. Have you spoken a local law enforcement about the extent of last night efforts? Do you know, like what all was involved in last night's Everything was involved in last night's efforts. As I mentioned law enforcement across the state at the municipal level, the county level, the state level oh, were activated and will be our, I would say, even more activated and on alert now than they were this time yesterday. You have anything additional? Yes, to your gas, rubber bullets, Anything additional beyond that, to your awareness. Well, the authorities very, of course, do not want to use lethal force, of course. Oh, so that is why the the effort is the concentration is on. Crowd control is on having a presence on trying to reach the people, as we're doing now to let those those ones who want a protest and not looking to cause trouble need to know that if there are some in their group that are intent on causing trouble, they may be caught up in it as well, so they need to obey curfews. They need to be very careful with whom they associate with you. Your mama told you, Don't don't talk to strangers. But if you have people that are coming in and urging you to do violent things, you need to get away from there as quickly as you can. Yes, Governor, The conversations that my colleagues had with protesters yesterday I mean, they're angry, they're frustrated, they're exhausted. And they feel like in some cases, for some of these protesters who did smash windows or burning cars they feel like they just that their voices are not being heard by the government by local officials. County, state, federal officials. You, yourself as well as the vice president of the United States, had made comments about a Colin Kaepernick when he kneel during the national anthem, and that was considered a very peaceful protests. And I'm wondering, you know what? Where do you see the difference? I mean, where do you see the difference? People feel like they do not have a good way. A good outlet to be heard in this country. They did the kneeling that didn't work. Now, there now they've gone to other extends. Mean, what is your response to that. Well, you heard from the numb of the people here today. We want to hear those protests. We won't hear those points of view. We always communication, collaboration, and cooperation is universally a formula for success in progress. What we urge people to do it is don't get violent. He must draw the line at violence. Because when you begin getting violent, nobody listens anymore. Yes. You know, these protests began peaceful yesterday. We expect them to begin peacefully today. Yesterday they took a turn. What are some of the issues that you're hearing from some of these peaceful protesters? Things that you think that we can address right away? But I think that was has been addressed, hit his podium just a few minutes ago. There people that feel that that there concerns the issues have not been addressed. And that's that's why the protests of that. And that's part of America. That we have a right assembly, a right of freedom of speech. Oh, and we treasure that way. Had a revolution against England Because of that, we establish those rights and wrote them down, put him in the constitution and they still there. The important so we want to hear from people. But violence models the message. It changes the subject and ends up. I believe in doing more harm than good, but they're a lot. There's a lot of things that we need to do in our state. A lot of things we need to do in the country. We all work together. We all do better have more progress, more happy, happy happiness, longer lives, healthier Children. When we talk to each other and work out of problems in a peaceful way, you would be happy to hear from something peaceful Protesters is. You would as well, Senator Scott Way heard from some of my own television yesterday, and some some of made made good sense is easy to understand what they're talking about. We've heard the same thing right here, but when the When the rocks and bottles and things start getting broken and windows and doors smashed in and car set on fire, there's just there's no reason to do that is counterproductive. You are on. You're on Fox News talking about the president's tweets. You call them not constructive, wondering if you could kind of talk about what that conversation was like Was the president receptive to some of the recommendations that you made? I had a good conversation, the president yesterday morning and just really encouraged him to focus on its Floyd more than the protesters. Because ultimately, I want to keep the main thing the main thing, which is the fact that, in my opinion, watched the video Mr Flows murdered Way wanted. Take that issue and keep the focus on that issue and one of the best ways to do this for the president to tweet, consistent with that on When we find ourselves having a broader, larger conversation, they just simply dilute what really is, in essence, the issue and, frankly, is upset before. But the fact of the matter is the toxicity of the issue. Does it come from a single death? Terrible as it is, it is a pattern that is revealing itself again and again. And as I said this morning on Fox as well, had it not been for the video, it wouldn't have happened had it not been for the video and Georgia, it wouldn't have happened. Even though it happened, no one would have believed it. And so we are in the place down where we continue to advocate on behalf of more clarity on these issues. But any time you get sidetracked at all, it dilute our ability to solve these really important issues. People looking to hear from the president do you think that the president should hold a national address to Americans? There's things I have. My my understanding is the president will be having a conversation with leaders around the country in the next couple of days. I think you'll hear more from the president as this unfolds. And, yes, I do believe the president will continue to address the American people as really this issue and the underlying issues. One of the things that we had good conversations about the way forward from quality education Teoh Economic opportunity to building wolf in America there are there are significant issues that we can address that I believe creates a a potential leap in this nation, not just steps forward. So I think you'll hear more of that conversation next few days. You feel like he understands that. Do you feel like he understands the underlying issues that are popping? This was across the United States yesterday I think the president's paying close attention, and he's a smart guy. So certainly understands the issues he is to make sure that we continue to express ourselves in a way that is constructive and that you could actually measure the results in reasonable time. And I believe that's what you'll see. That's what we have seen frankly in the last few years. We have. Some companies are self seen, a lot of police on the streets to our thing. This is sort of a question General, I have maybe one of your law enforcement folks South Carolinians smashed in two of our largest cities. We're seeing a lot of police officers officers on the streets right now. I guess my question is, you know, as a sheriff for as chief of sled what what is your message to folks and how they can express themselves without escalating to the plane where that presence is going there? That's that's an easy one. Law enforcement or officers are trained not to escalate the situation. I believe we have the best law enforcement in the nation in South Carolina, but I would say to the people, Is the law enforcement officers or here to protect you and your property. I remember a story. Some of you may have heard it years ago. A sheriff was being introduced. He was at a picnic or something. And a mother brought her little boy up and said that, uh, Sonny, if you get out of line, this sheriff is gonna come get you. So you better watch out for him. He said, ma'am, wait a minute. I'm your friend. I'm here to protect that little boy. So soon? If you have a problem, come talk to me. That is that. That's the kind of message that we want to deliver to the people law enforcement have been trained to protect the people that property said they couldn't be happy, experienced jaw, get an education and go up in the world. And we're doing on trying to do a lot of things here in South Carolina to see that everybody has the opportunity to do just that. Yes, maybe just to build on that little bit. You know, we have reporters out of State House right now who are talking on a stepped up, you know, slept presence. We have somebody out there. Okay? So again, please. So we have reporters out there, the statehouse already. We're talking about a stepped up slut presence stepped up Columbia police presence for what they saw at the beginning of yesterday. Some curious what has changed in your advisement to, you know, Sheriff Kun to share a lot too. Chief keel in terms of you know the way to respond to some of these protesters today. Has there been any change in what you told them? No, man, they are fully capable, trained and authorized to take whatever steps are necessary to protect the people in property of the state of South Carolina. And they will do that. We do know from law enforcement all around the state if there's a threat of violence, the threat of opposition to that violence, that presence, the mere presence of a counterforce generally reduces the threat of violence. So people should not be expected. They ought to be happy when they when they see law enforcement in their in their neighborhood, cause they're there. Aziz, the sheriff I mentioned a while ago, said they're there to protect people, not to hurt people. Yes, ma'am. Has there been any discussion about what she welcome to immediately to address these concerns. I mean, I think the message across the country seems to be as we discussed here, that we're not being her. In response to Kobe 19 there were task forces immediately set up. Has there been any discussion on what can be done right now? Wait, just go set. Oh, earlier today and I just made a promise to Murphy a moment ago. You may have heard, but that is always something that we're attempting to do. The things that events like, what has happened in the country now that remind us that there's a lot more that needs to be done. And I'm sure that we all look forward to doing that particular here in the state of South Carolina, where we're all like family. Yes, man. Coming. You go quickly. We talked about teaching the right way to protest and getting in front of young people. You know, as we speak right now, it's two protesters who were gonna be out there today are probably already out or well on their way. Potentially not listening here. How do we reach young people before senators got I'd love to hear your thoughts on this as well. How do we reach young people moving forward? Where does that conversation begins? Its start here. Where does it start? At home? Well, if this is a part of it, it's also a home. It's also it's school something. I think the governor had the known ahead. It's a multifaceted approach that will be effective. There's no one panacea to this issue. One of the things I do on a monthly basis is I visit a different school in the state, making sure that we have an opportunity to have a conversation. I think it's really important for us to have positive role models in schools. I was a kid that flunked out of high school as a freshman, so I understand the impact of a negative environment, negative self esteem, what that does to an individual. So I like going into schools. I like having conversations with parents, like having conversation with community leaders. One of the reasons why I'm so focused on opportunity zones and workforce development is because I know that if you can see a better life, it's like a harness on the soul. It gives you more energy and more focus and so that is an important part of the equation. But you start that at home. You could do that in schools. One of the reasons why I think our our churches need to figure out how to be as open as possible while using social distancing to be there. Well, there's a faith factor that is glue in our society society. He was 11 1 allows us to see something that does not yet exist because we know it will come. So when we have, that allows for all of us to move forward together. So I do think it's multifaceted and it is quite effective, but it just takes longer than 24 hours for you. Senator, has there been a discussion about any type of policy changes to address these issues? What the weather which issue you're talking about? But I would say that the first thing I had a conversation with the attorney general turned to a bar, a Zraly Stow Armory as well as Miss Floyd s. So there are things happening in so many of these issues and instances that didn't happen 20 years ago, didn't happen 30 years ago, but his relates to the broader issue of treating a more fair and more just society. It's one of the things I've encouraged President Dues to have attorney General Barr leading conversation about race and justice. And let's start on the federal level and let it seep into every state in this nation. We oftentimes look at South Carolina and say, You know what? The South is a problem. Well, Minnesota's on part south. So what we've seen in South Carolina around the Southeast is the fact that we've seen Leaps in the right direction. We just need to continue to do so. Okay, Thank you very much. Appreciate you coming for all of you came with us on this beautiful South Carolina Sunday. Thank you very much. Appreciate it.
