No exceptions.

Have a nice day.

Have you actually been in the presence of someone saying this? If so, I suggest you surround yourself with new people.

I've only overheard it. I'm starting to hear it more on TV which means it'll soon be more pervasive than anybody should allow it to be.

I honestly don't think any court in the land would disagree that "Shut the front door" requires a response of justifiable assault and battery. Murder, on the other hand might be a bit much but hey, sometimes these things happen.

I think the worst you'd get is a slap on the wrist.

Murder requires premedititation. I'm thinking justifiable homicide in the name of eradicating this scourge.
