Remember that scene in Ghostbusters 2 when Winston told the Mayor "I've seen shit that'll turn you white!"
I know what Q means but still…using the lame "you can't handle the truth" bit, is a little condescending.
I'm well aware of all the super duper top secret technology that exists like flying saucers and the like…so being told my understanding of our country would melt if I knew "xyz," is simply patronizing.
