I want to kill them all! 😃

yeah i mean this really aint serious so just for the sake of theoreticals if we say that for whatever reason dropping enemy combatants from altitude is your only/most effective form of combat then it may be justified, however if done for any other reason it would be in violation of the following international law:

Geneva Conventions (1949) – Common Article 3

"Persons taking no active part in the hostilities… shall in all circumstances be treated humanely… the following acts are and shall remain prohibited at any time and in any place whatsoever with respect to the above-mentioned persons:
(a) Violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture…"
\ — Common Article 3, Geneva Conventions of 1949

Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (1998)

Article 8(2)(b)(xxi):
\ "Committing outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment;"

Article 8(2)(b)(xxv):
\ "Employing means of warfare which are of a nature to cause superfluous injury or unnecessary suffering;"

Article 8(2)(a)(i):
\ "Wilful killing" of persons protected under the Geneva Conventions is a war crime.

Customary International Humanitarian Law (ICRC Study, 2005)

Rule 70: Weapons or methods of warfare which are of a nature to cause superfluous injury or unnecessary suffering are prohibited.

Rule 90: Torture, cruel or inhuman treatment and outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment, are prohibited.

and also you should have a moral obligation to treat humans humanely, if nothing else, but thats just my opinion

a non binary person approves this urge
What's stopping you?
- The ability to fly.
Is it just me, or does that mask look really really plastic? I feel like the prop mask they used on the CW shows looked better
- Honestly I assumed it was photoshopped... If that's what it looks like in the movie, then Disney REALLY needs to pay their artists more...
  
  That be DC, not marvel. So, Warner Brothers
