Re: Projecting guilt
Posted By: HarmanimusDate: 9/18/12 3:39 a.m.

In Response To: Projecting guilt (scarab)


Regarding the military thing:

The question is entirely one of is it 'worth the cost.' There is a degree of duty, to something bigger than the individual or certain groups. But there is always a degree of 'acceptable loss' in any conflict. Sometimes the sacrifice, willing or unwilling, of individuals for the betterment of the whole is necessary. The US used to have the draft. People who went to war were either volunteers or voluntold, because they were needed.

I can't say one way or another how I'd react to a nebulous hypothetical, but I can say that to the extent of the purpose being justifiable, and the orders being given were lawful, they'd be followed. I just don't know what extreme would merit such an action to necessity.

Just, you know, desperate times, friend. Desperate times.
