Also, "disrespectful tone" is not an objective fact but a judgment - and a criticism. No matter how "true" it may be, it will likely be heard as such, and will only decrease the chances of the limit being heard.
Reminds me of that great scene in Dirty Harry, when the Mayor says:
"I don't want anymore trouble down there in the Fillmore District, like we had last year, Callahan. Hands off -- that's my policy."
Clint Eastwood (Harry Callahan): Well, when an adult male is chasing a female with intent to commit rape, I shoot the bastard. That's my policy.
John Vernon (The Mayor): Intent? How did you establish that?
Clint Eastwood (Harry Callahan): : When a man is chasing a woman through an alley with a butcher's knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross!
