I then asked them, in all honesty, if they planned to go ahead shooting them and take their chances...again, an affirmative answer.

My next question was, "Are you prepared to accept the consequences like men and not whine if you get nailed?"

They assured me that they were.

You cannot tell me that this was wrong! He knew they were going to do it anyway (they told them they were), so having this serious conversation with them was teaching them to be responsible for their actions!

I'm sure if they were caught and they got in trouble that CS would be the first to say, I told you so.
