Ah, I wasn't being clear. I don't think it would accomplish anything good - I just think that is what would happen in the situation. In fact, it is easy to see how it could cause harm - murdering Julius Caesar didn't lead to the continued existence of the Republic, after all.

Just seems like there are two or three incidents a week these days that contribute to my feeling Really Nervous. I've railed against the US government in the past, but really, it's a pretty decent system. I don't want it to go away. :\
