Sure. Let me rot in jail to take of the one person that represents all the assholes that will still be alive and share his beliefs. That checks out.

It sucks, but this pain teaches the future generations how god-damned crazy they sound. It's not an overnight fix. It's going to take decades.

It would in fact be better if a foreign country took care of it.
