My opinion of humanity was already so low...
It's funny, I had the opposite reaction, I see this as pretty strong evidence of our decency. It's really, really hard to get most people to behave this way, and the ones who do wind up fucked up from it (as they should).
True. It's hard to make people kill, but it's much too hard to teach soldiers to refuse an amoral order.
