It doesn't need a cancellation notice. Context dictates the command.

Defense of Others has a more direct impact on what's "right" than legislation ever will.

Not necessarily.

Elections are the only way to realistically change this from a political perspective.

Not necessary. You already stated that you don't think "the response is appropriately scaled to the belief". Perhaps you should let me know what the response should be based on the belief, then.
