One thing I’ve come to believe is that our guys do not “take someone out”. Our guys arrest people and put them on trial. They follow proper legal procedures. I’m not saying that the good guys never fire a weapon, but I am confident that they don’t assassinate anyone. If someone dies in a shootout, that’s different.

I make the assumption that you have no issue with the US mil killing guys in war. This is war, they are unlawful combatants. See

A firefight in a war is (in my book) morally justified.

I think all killing is regrettable, but some are immoral.
