IAN: As bad as I know things are, I can't stop being dumbstruck... the outrage!.. the atrocity of it all! It's because I dream of a world that is not (a world of freedom and ethics) that I can't accept what is.

IAN: Right, that's really weird. These people have no problem with allowing mass poisoning, yet feel compelled by some ethical code to write such into law. Like it would be wrong to do it otherwise.? Very odd! I guess it's a legal cover so that if anyone ever was able to prove they were poisoned, the court would say: "Sorry, it's legal. Those who wrote the law were democratically elected, thus poisoning the people was the will of the people."
