Someone had to do it since the mayor and the governor sure as heck wasn't...

Honore is going to curse the city into submission? While he tells the troops to sling their weapons?

We don't remember Washington or Patton because of their swearing. We remember them because they won. If one of these guardsman can't get to the trigger fast enough because this political hack is doing sideshows like this, I wouldn't want to be the one to inform the family.

Restraint is a good thing in a commander, but a city raping and killing its own doesn't deserve restraint.

Then let's wait and see whether Honore "wins" this one, shall we? Getting all worked up because you don't like his language, or second guessing decisions that can best be made on the ground is foolish.
