Why does the Geneva Convention forbid medics from carrying any more than the most basic of self-defense weapons?
In: 10147
Because the war crimes rules also say you’re not allowed to shoot at medics.
If medics were allowed to be armed, armies could just dress up *all* their soldiers as “medics” and say “haha you can’t shoot any of us.”
But that obviously wouldn’t work, and the enemy would shoot at them anyway…*leaving zero of the intended protection for their* ***actual*** *medics.*
