You should be a politician. Part of our duty as brothers is to keep the
promises made by the previous generation. True, sometimes they need to be
broken, but this IS NOT one of those times. Destroying another groups
way of life that doesn't interfere with yours is just plain mean and rude!
You aren't helping anyone. You're just slapping those brothers in the
face to make yourself look morally superior. You aren't saving us,
yourself, or anybody else. Your just being cruel.
