Editing Marines Malevolent (section)

==The Civilian Bombing==
A lot is made of the Marines Malevolent's bombing of civilians during the Third War for Armageddon, what with it being their agreed upon douche establishing moment. The thing is, it really is one of their least heinous crime and shows the writers have no idea what they're doing or are unaware of the realities of war. Even in Modern times, intentional civilian casualties are common. Terrorists are known for taking civilian targets as human shields. The USMC bombed a stadium hijacked by Al-Queda operators along with their civilian hostages; the premise being that the terrorists would cause more innocent deaths if left alive then what was caused by the bombing. It is even arguable that killing the civilians in a Ork infested camp is a mercy. In The War of the Beast, humans were used as cattle and in the videogame Space Marine, the orks gleefully and systemically killed everyone, many of which just died tired. It can also be argued that the fight with the Salamanders was equally their fault (face it, the [[Noblebright|Salamanders don't have a single pragmatic bone in their bodies]]).

Strangely, the problem everyone has with the Marines Malevolent is that they ''just don't care''. The fact that they feel no remorse or shame whatsoever for their actions ticks people off. Even tho there are hosts of other chapters who are similarly callous and noone bats an eye. And to be fair, not all the MMs are so heartless. After the shelling of the Ork camp, the last surviving prisoner shot a MM with a bolt pistol for the collateral damage. The shot only scuffed his armor, and the [[Dick|MM went to kill her]]. But another MM punched him in the face to protect her, claiming that enough human blood had been shed that day.
