I'm staying out of 90% of the thread simply because getting involved would increase my heart rate higher than working out and I already did that this morning.

c) It isn't valiant, or heroic... it's smart. That's what tactics are all about. Shooting officers first, and from trees no less, wasn't considered "heroic" or "valiant" but it won us our freedom over 200 years ago. *shrug* Seems to make sense to me.

Officers were uniformed men who knew exactly what they were doing on a field of battle. Though there was no law of combat it was gentilemanly to leave officers alone. Blowing up innocent civilians when they are going to mosque/school/grocery shopping is completely different. Drawing a line between that is like saying a lineman hitting a cornerback is wrong, so in the same light it's ok to tackle their cheerleaders is justifyable.
