So what do you think about my "combustion engine" argument?
Why you focusing on the small problem?
Think the kids asthma cases are going up because of the increase in smokers?
Yeah, I'm sure that's what it is. Cigarettes.
Violence doesn't solve as much as you'd think it would.

In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility;
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger:
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.
