Thus saith the Lord. These are two different ways. Like, listen, if we got something wrong, here's two ways you might go about fixing it. But please do fix it in the future.

Yeah, exactly. Semi-automatic weapons that kill children in their classrooms in Texas. They had no way of anticipating these things. And so consequently, even though they did get a lot of things wrong by today's standards, namely the rights of women, the rights of people of color, they got a lot wrong.
