Think again of the firefighter analogy. Arson, like any violation of the Geneva Conventions, is already against the law, but suppose that firefighters wanted to reinforce this legal prohibition by proposing professional standards forbidding firefighters from going out and torching vacant buildings for kicks. What would you make of any alleged firefighter who opposed such professional standards?.
