If you're the sort of person who beats dogs, you might.

[ Or if the dog starts biting everyone indiscriminately. Then you put the dog down but also kick the shit out of its owner to see how he likes it. But Anders doesn't seem to be blowing things up at random, so that's an unnecessary extension of the metaphor. ]

I'm not going to argue about mage rights with you, Nathaniel. Not because I don't enjoy arguing with you. I do. Pick any other topic and I'm there. But I don't think we have anything to fight about here.
