"Should I apply special criteria to you, then? Abandoning my own, or Starfleet's, or the standards of the community in which you find yourself? That you've behaved with more civility than your world might have led me to expect means nothing. But your ideology, your morality, are in conflict with ours. Should, then, you be allowed to exercise your brand because it is yours, when in my eyes it does harm? Should you be free to rape minds, for instance, because it is less than would be offered us in your universe? By what standard would you have me judge you?"
