thanks. but he is an adult, he was so when he signed up. and growing up
with his background he knew from the word go that he could be asked to
do things he didn't unnecessarily agree with.

like I've always told him:
there are 2 kinds of people who will get you killed

stupid people
those trying to prove a point

the only difference between there and say Minneapolis is that he gets to
shoot back. but then I've always reserved that right myself.

to paraphrase a line from Blade runner "life, nobody gets out alive".
