...but it rhymes.
"As regards disarming the Sioux, however desirable it may appear, I consider it neither advisable, nor practicable. I fear it will result as the theoretical enforcement of prohibition in Kansas, Iowa and Dakota; you will succeed in disarming and keeping disarmed the friendly Indians because you can, and you will not succeed with the mob element because you cannot." Valentine McGillycuddy in 1891.
Almost as if the law abiding will abide by the law and the lawless won't is a universal truth or something.
