Will American soldiers be less likely to try to take prisoners…

…now that the Supreme Court has decided that people who are trying to kill our troops have the same rights as the American’s they’re trying to kill?

I suspect that “finishing the job” in combat will hold more appeal for some troops than the idea of lawyers and judges back in the states deciding that a terrorist should go free because the soldiers didn’t maintain a proper chain of evidence on the battlefield.

(I’m definitely not advocating killing prisoners, viagra generic cialis but I wouldn’t be surprised if our soldiers worked a little harder to “neutralize” the enemy now during battle rather than risk capturing them and being forced to act like a cop instead of a combatant.)
