    Rules of engagement? Are you one of those cops who thinks they’re a soldier in occupied territory?

      Not at all.

      I’m referring to an upvoted comment here that suggests soldiers wouldn’t have been justified in shooting this kid in a war zone, due to ROE. The author of that comment pulled it straight out of their ass: there never has been and never will be an ROE that would have prohibited this use of lethal force.
