Good to see that they are fighting on this front, too.

Ethics does not exist in these people's vocabularies. They should be sent to the front line as punishment.

Punished yes, but using the front lines as a punishment also doesn't sit right with me. Being on the front is a sucky place to be, but when one begins using it as a punishment, it feels like a short step from there to being morally ok with russian-style meat wave attacks. When it's prisoners and such, it likely easy to see them as expendable and that degrades our humanity and turns us into the enemy.

It doesn't sit right with me that people who steal from the troops protecting them get to safely sit in a cell.

I also agree with that. An example needs to be made of them, I just don't think that's the way. I'm sure something equally terrible can be thought up. There are plenty of horrifying jobs in a war, like dead orc removal and things of that nature.

I agree. I just don't want these people to get of scot-free sitting in a cushy apartment with an ankle-monitor, sipping on some fine wine. That wouldn't be justice.
