Understandable position, but I think you should be aware that the US Government is capable of moving fast and decisively in rare but unpredictable circumstances

Understandable position, but I think you should be aware that the US Government is capable of moving fast and decisively in rare but unpredictable circumstances. Only 44 days elapsed between 2001/9/11 and the passage of the Patriot Act on 2001/10/25. Things usually don't change that fast, but nobody can truly predict the geopolitical landscape even half a year into the future.
