But but but... We are the Pandorg! We're here to acutelate the population of this planet! How can we do that without resorting to mind-numbing violence?

Without handguns, of course.

Or spiked clubs. Makes me queasy just thinking about it.

Or knives.

Swords too.

Look, blades are just right out!

Not too fond of brass knuckles, either.

Put it this way: We are going to have to resort to gratuitous violence in order to acutelate you, so just live with it. Or not, as the case may be. Just let us do it as we stand over the next hill so we don't have to watch it. 'Kay?
