the word "innocent"
It could mean in some context having had no chance to sin, and in another it could mean not having been convicted of crime. I assumed that goldy was using the second definition so he could justify in his heart the killing of prisoners who had been convicted of something or other. I was actually using it in the context of someone who is relatively unknown to the killer, such as the three Afgan scrap scavengers who where killed because one was tall. I can't say they weren't guilty of some crime, but there weren't guilty of any crime directed toward Americans.
What's your favorite definition of the terms in question?

This is a debating tactic much in use today that is positively poisoning serious conversation and understanding: Use common words but pour different meanings into them.

Do you have any comprehension of the word "innocent" or "murder?" You use them in such odd ways.
