And, we won't.

That is one of may main complaints about this situation.

Also, your wording is incorrect. It is not that it 'can't happen'.

It is that we don't want it to happen.

Which is VERY interesting to me.

"We need to kneecap them while we say we are "reforming" them."


That denotes a level of interactive effort that I do not find worthwhile. They are not worth such behavior. They need to be treated like the invasive species that they are. One does not negotiate and play nice with an invasion.

But, that is just me, I guess.
