    Being a commander of a mercenary group doesn’t count as proof of being a rapist by my books.

    Sorry, but I don’t want to live in the world you’re advocating for, and luckily I don’t have to. We’ve granted war criminals due process in the past and we’re going to do it again. I’m proud to live in a country where we have sensible adults in charge.

      Are you talking about a mercenary group in general or this particular mercenary group which is kinda famous for raping?

      Why the ad hominem? What’s sensible is an opinion, not an objective truth.

      I’m not saying to kill him but to send him back. Sure, the end result might be the same, but that piece of shit doesn’t deserve anything from us.

        You’re advocating for ditching due process and sentencing people to death not for what they’ve done, but for the group they happen to belong to. That’s not a sensible position to hold, in my opinion.
