re: #112 Targetpractice

Oddly enough, it’s the same policy that virtually every empire in history has operated under, the idea that “the natives” are a bunch of ignorant savages, as if they weren’t then they wouldn’t be occupied. Thus we’re there to bring them civilization/order/democracy/etc and any attempts to resist will not be tolerated. The only thing that’s evolved is the manner in which resistance is dealt with.
