Reply To: Is trump really immoral

My issue is that you should know by yourself that you’re wrong.
But I don’t. If I did I wouldn’t have said it in the first place.
Seems like you don’t know either, but realizing that my intellect is superior to yours, your asking me to do your work, since you are incapable of doing it.

You asked for this.
For what?

Is your next question “Does it say anywhere ‘war crime’ is only if it’s part of a war?”
NO I WASN’T GOING TO ASK THAT.
Geneva Conventions… civilians… armed conflict

“People coming across the border” are not involved in armed conflict (which is what the Geneva
Conventions apply to) and cannot be classed as non-civilians as opposed to their children.

Someone committing a crime, which he knows carries a certain punishment, who commits the crime while with his children so he can then say you can’t punish me because it will leave the children in a terrible predicament. That is classic human shield.

The classic use of “human shield” is as a military law term with a specific meaning. (It’s also come to
be used for any situation in which the tactic is used, but it has no legal ramifications outside war.)

SO YOU ARE FINE WITH SOMEONE ROBBING A STORE AT GUNPOINT WHILE HOLDING THEIR CHILD IN FRONT OF THEM BECAUSE IT’S NOT A WAR OR ARMED ”CONFLICT ”?
