Dudes are saying that soldiers should shoot their officers if they give a “bad” order … that’s not how things work. Anyone that thinks it is has watched way too many movies.
Nobody said that, I certainly didn’t.
What I said was if your CO orders you to kill civilians it is absolutely moral to ignore that order and if necessary go beyond the law to prevent it even if that includes killing your CO.
There is a huge difference between a “bad” order and being complicit in war crimes and killing unarmed civilians in your own country.
Incorrect. At least read the conversation you are trying to enter. There are several references stating this should be done. One post even describes where the term “fragging” comes from. The post I responded to stated a soldier could either live with the guilt of what he does or turn on the officer that gave the order.
You are also wrong that you can disobey an order to shoot civilians. It is not always morally acceptable. That will get someone a court martial. A soldier on guard duty on a military base sees several guys jumping a fence and entering an ammo depot. “Halt! Are you guys military? Because I’m not allowed to shoot civilians breaking onto a secured facility” … said no soldier ever in the history of soldiering.
Lmao, I am the person that you’ve been responding to.
So I guess incorrect to you too lol
Nice job making up a new scenario we’re not talking about. I’ll let you figure out how breaking into a military base differs from protesting.
Other note morality and legality are not the same
You said shooting civilians was illegal … I disagreed … I am right. There are millions of scenarios where civilians get killed, and only a few dozen where it is illegal.
You are not the only one posting, if you didn’t bring up the officer bragging statement then someone else did. I didn’t.
You are just one of those people that are argumentative online just to be argumentative. It’s easy to remedy by blocking. Bye “arrow”.
