Well, in fairness, the answer changed.
This was asked at a different point, and there was a much longer discussion on it. (I couldn't find it. It might have been on the Legacy BBS.) My initial answ ... |

I killed all the men
Nope. You keep the men alive. If you're feeling charitable, then you release them. If you're not, then you ask their employer for a ransom payment. |

Why is it not legal?
In this case pretty much because Mike - who is second only to SVC himself when it comes to resolving Fed Com rules questions - has decided to define this particular grey area i ... |
