    As the French showed if enough heads roll you may end your monarchy. Might flirt with a dictator in the process, but that can also be taken care of

      Yeah but the dictator will kill the sans-culottes who get uppity and the response to excess headrolling is reaction and moderation of the more radical goals of the process. Burn the guillotine, as the Parisian communards did.
