arcatech··on Navy SEALs reportedly killed North Korean fishermen to hide a failed mission
So if you kill someone in self defense you simply don’t have any morals? What these agents did was obviously wrong, but how does it help to simplify morality like that?
arcatech··on Navy SEALs reportedly killed North Korean fishermen to hide a failed mission

You’re complaining that the people giving enough of a shit to boycott a thing don’t know what to give a shit about?
