He's Just Like A Roman Emperor!

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because the Limehouse.

Of course, the leading general of the Jewish uprisings Muir mentions wound up writing the history of them as the client of a Roman Emperor. And in point of fact, the Zealots killed more Jews than Romans, and wound up loathed by nearly everyone. And that Jewish Kingdom they wished to reestablish was an eastern despotism like most other eastern despotisms, complete with nasty little depositions--ones where ex-king's got their ears got bitten off. But hey! Defiance to the Emperor must be good! History gives us neat little divisions of villains and heroes!

And remember, limited government is good! I mean, sure, when the Romans limited their government, the result was something we like to call the Dark Ages--but that's just because they weren't American! Americans--real Americans--know that torture is okay, and health care is evil. They know that civic obligation is a bunk. What matters is--GUNS! And TOUGHNESS! The toughness that comes from knowing you can shoot people with your gun! When tyranny comes, Muir will be boldly leading the charge against it! Then, we can have a good free government, that let's folks like Muir do whatever they want, while screwing poor people and... folks that've gotten uppitty to the wall.

Possibly while wearing nifty uniforms. Yeah, it'll be great.
