   Thats a good one - especially in statistics. Most mathematicians would be

   But what I was really referring to was the illusion of strength created by   
   Arizona Sherrif's Deputies who kill parapalegics who are strapped into   
   restraint chairs, or the false perception of strength created by incidents   
   like Waco, or the kid who was murdered by being forced to eat mud in   
   Arizona. I think that the cruelty is intended to frighten citizens into   
   total submission via demonstration of absolute power, when in reality it   
   only shows that the powers which we have granted to the government have been   
   misplaced, and those who posses that power are proven as completely   
   irresponsible.

   Dont mistake inmates for Satan.   
      
   Dont make mistakes - if you know whats good for you.   
      
   Dont make mistakes if you ever expect to be hired by anyone in the US.   
      
   Dont scribble on the walls with crayon.
