Now, now. Look on the bright side: If true, that means no constraints. It’s an eerie echo of the first time you decided to start a new kind of state based on entirely new principles (and a lot of dead natives plus some living slaves), unhampered by existing norms or traditions of governance. You’ve done it once - who’s to say you cannot do it again?

Many Americans are fighting desperately against a monster they cannot beat, using all the tools at their disposal to prevent any more harm. Do you think something is "the fuck"ing wrong with those people? If not, you should reconsider your phrasing.
