    Ah OK, so we have to let them systematically murder countless people before we can do anything. Got it.

    It’s not like we should ever learn from history, and try to do things differently this time.

    And by the way, I’m not talking about extrajudicial killing. We were talking about Nazi trials.

      That is not what I am saying at all, we have many other options before getting to killing as the solution. Learning from history is the point, but you do not jump the gun on death being the penalty for things. The ammo box is the last box to be used for a reason.

      If you are not talking obliquely about extrajudicial killings, why are you saying opposing it means we can do nothing until the genocide happens? You were talking about the execution of a propagandist that supported the Holocaust as a direct comparison with Kirk. This comparison can really only be used as an explanation for why it was somehow acceptable for him to be killed. The up thread was about justifying Kirk’s death as a Nazi propagandist.
