My father in WWII- Japanese women and children were being sent at them with bombs strapped to their bodies. Some of the men said we are just gonna shoot them all. Ancient 
old Sgt. said if you shoot one unarmed civilian his or her family is gonna hate us for 10,000 years. You make damn sure they are armed or you don't shoot.
