In this segue, keep in mind that I tend to be pacifistic- or at least anti-capital punishment. (I make the distinction because I feel that if an intruder gets him/her self killed in someone's home because the householder panicked, them's the breaks.)

However- Does anyone imagine that the bushlet will lie awake at night worrying about casualties in the event he sends the troops in? This is the same man who, while he was governor of Texas, acquiesced in the execution of 150 felons. (Luckily, not a single one was innocent.)
