"Murderers, rapists, that sort of thing." That is exactly the scary attitude that bothers me. The casualness. Just plug 'em in the head, and we'll investigate next week. We know this guy is guilty because someone like him was definitely identified. Oh well, we thought he was guilty. He probably deserved it anyway. "Some people just need killing": fat cat industrialists, famous people, etc. That would be what terrorists think. The distinction isn't that broad. I don't think we should go down that road. Next stop: Iraq, Lebanon.
