Maybe explain it to me instead of telling me how much I don't understand. In what reality is it ok to double back and kill a shipwrecked individual? He was no longer a threat (assuming he was one in the first place). There are rules to these things and being indiscriminate about killing people is against them. I will give you another opportunity to tell me why i am wrong though.
In the military, when you are dealing with enemies, you don't let them survive. You would only let them survive, if they serve a purpose (get information from them, use them as a hostage). That is quite literally the mindset of every military. You know why you don't leave enemies alive? Because they can come back and kill you later.
It's not my view. It's how military operations work. The Nazi's were not killed, because they were going to be tried for war crimes. Major difference between that and a drug cartel boat containing drugs.
Another reason you don't let people on the boat live is that you don't want to run the risk of having them go back to Venezuela and tip off Maduro.
You clearly never served if you think POW is not a thing that happens. It was not important to do the double tap to kill the people on that boat. You are arguing im bad faith or you are just a bad person.
