"Oh yeah, well, my uncle killed an entire playground full of kids. As retribution for another uncle who detonated a nuclear bomb on a factory making free antibiotics for the poor. Why just yesterday a bunch of hippies in Portland burned down a church full of worshippers because they don't pray to trees. I don't hear any Army choppers. This is America. We protect our own. Mostly. Sort of. We're a young country, still workshopping as it goes." tl;dr Dirty hippies are dangerous if you don't pray to trees.
