Let me preface this by stating the obvious: I am mortal.

Since I am mortal, I _can_ die. And I've died many, many times.

Let me think for a moment...
I have to take off my gloves it seems... there we go, I've died ten
times!
Wait a minute, no, I've died... let me take off my socks...
15, no, 20 times!
Hmmm, that can't be right but I seem to have run out of digits.

Yawn.

Anyway, I have died lots of times yet here I am.

Sometimes I deserved it, sometimes I didn't but I suppose that's life!

What I'm trying to say is that if you want to use violence to get your
point across, as the Vertani have demonstrated, destroy property not
people.
