Sorry, missed this the first time.

Very well. My apologies for that. However, the issue I took with the issue you took with my comparison had nothing to do with fingernails being different from a bomb. Note that at no point n your prior post did you specify that the problem you had with my comparison was "Bombs are more devastating than fingernails", and the implication to me seemed to be "they have nothing in common psychologically you troll!" If I misread that and that wasn't what you were trying to say, I apologize.

My issue was that you seemed to believe that pointing that out somehow proved there is nothing comparable at all to the circumstances. I'd beg to politely disagree on that, particularly given my (limited, I'll admit) evidence to the contrary.

I have no idea what you mean about "ignoring the continuation of my argument" and and why that would offend you, because again: they are similar. Both can (not necessarily *always do*) act under similar stresses and motives, and under some circumstances they will *consciously* try to kill you and others even at the expense of themselves. Not all Weepers are like this as the others pointed out, so I'll restrain that to the ones the Heart ID's as being ill-intentioned.

I agree that legally that's what you're supposed to do. Just that if you doubt you can do it or if situations demand otherwise, the law will hardly punish you for acting in defense of yourself and others by killing an attacker. That, and consider another problem with Weepers is that A: in theory they'd be hard to subdue like you're normally supposed to do legally, and B: even if you did, unless they're in a safe place knocking them out might be tantamount to killing them horrifically due to the rats (which helps nobody).

On the subject of the Flooded District, that's what I'd mainly be referring to, particularly since the Plague's pretty much overrun the place and- as you mentioned- the Weepers aren't corralled and thus spreading the plague. Other circumstances could justify the Chaos bump because they're corralled/under control (like the pinned down ones you mention) but that? Not so much. As for citing specific examples, my memory leaks like a sieve so I'd probably need to play through again to pick more out, but the Flooded District's probably the best since one.
