   This is valid. Whatever your own flesh and blood might do, to rat him out to the state is peak boomer.

     @cjd This was the mistake Eli and Samuel and David made in the Bible. This was the mistake Saddam Hussein made in Iraq. Their sons committed capital crimes, for which they executed the populace, but they protected their sons. Rules for thee but not for me and my kin.

     @cjd I don't agree with this take at all. There is nothing heroic about throwing ones life away while accomplishing nothing, in the grand scheme of things. There is nothing heroic about hiding and shooting a non aggressor armed only with words because you don't like what he says. Nor is it dishonorable to turn in evil. Refusing to harbor a fugitive from legitimate justice, at great cost to oneself, because what they did was unjustifiable, is what is heroic.

     The son is a Villain-Protagonist, thought he fights on the side of evil, he is still more Heroic than most anyone you will ever meet.

     @cjd well I have twice been hospitalized as a result of defending another. A suicide bomber shows some balls, this guy did not.

     The most unheroic violence possible is to be a cop or military goon torturing a prisoner. You suffer no risk either from them fighting back (they're in chains) or from consequences of your actions (you're under the protection of government).
     
     Sniping a person who is peaceful has no risk from them, but it does have risk of consequences. This guy is going to be executed by firing squad, and he went into it knowing this would happen. Whether you like it or not, something willing to take that risk has more heroism than someone who sits in his chair talking about it.
     
     Same thing with suicide bombers. You tell yourself they have no heroism at all, but that's because you don't have the balls to do what they do. No offense here, I don't either.

     @cjd no im not a Boomer. I just have an understanding of personal honor. And there is no heroism without it. What he did was comparable to shooting someone in the back. That has always been the act of a coward.

     I do gotta be that guy for just a moment: For mega high profile things like this, not turning him in runs the risk of being considered complicit and catching some charges of your own.
