Like how you don't get it? Saying that people seeming people are not people does not make it OK!In a war it is mostly self defence and defence of others. And I don't expect standards of modern Geneva conventions from medieval war either.And the elves in Silmarillion in a lot of ways are not nice people.Which is messed up. I don't remember whether that is mentioned in the book proper or just in the appendices (I think it is the latter,) but if we take it at face value, it casts Aragorn in rather negative light. And if they want to eat my brains and I'd rather keep them, it is somewhat unlikely that we reach an amicable compromise on the matter. Like sure, they might be just grabbing a burger, but I wouldn't blame the cow for fighting back!</blockquote>
