Ultimately we're trying to save all of these assholes.

To fight for what is right is to understand that your enemy is not some incorporeal evil, but simply misguided fools commiting evil acts by chance. While we cant let our empathy make us weak; We also cant allow ourselves to be consumed by a hatred for the fools we fight.
