Setting up paramilitary Security Forces

[Project_Sardonicus]

I was thinking would being the force of law and order be an issue for the teams? What happened when the bandits they were stopping harassing the poor farmers surrendered?

But then I suppose the last thing any government would do before sucumbing to armagedon would be to declare martial law.

The question then becomes do the teams have the courage to become; judge, jury and exectioner?

Or

Judge, Judy and Executioner?

In the grand scope of things, there should be a (relatively small) number of teams dedicated to just these kinds of problems. The answer would seem to depend on the resources of the "poor farmers" and the relationship of the bandits to any external groups.

Morrow Teams should not be setting themselves up in ANY of those roles. They should help the community to understand those roles and establish a system of justice, but the Project is not a part of the community and cannot act as if it is.
