Could you consider Sgt. Swagner morally liable for his actions? If you were in his place what would you have done?

"NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW." meaning, everyone is responsible for every actions that we wish to do, so therefore we should abide and respect the policies and laws that being imposed by authorities or else, you will be punished by society. According to the statement above, we are all governed by laws whether we like it or not, but for some, justice is only for the richest and prominent personalities and tend to take for granted what is just.And for them to attained justice, they will put the justice in their hands and forced themselves to obtained what it seems for them is right. Ethically speaking, he ( the protagonist in the movie) is right for giving justice for the death of many people but biblically speaking, it is somewhat immoral because it is against the will of God. And only Him has the right to give justice for those who did not attained it.
For me what he have done is liable because no one above the law, KILLING is against the legal and natural law.
For me for what he have done is right or it is not immoral but legally incorrect, for what he had done will change for better cause it is only right to those who do anomaly in the government especially those who have position it will make them be afraid to know that there are certain people who will treat them like the protagonist of the story but we can't rid of the fact that politicians are powerful.
Maybe some of the people will not have the same opinion of mine but I know most will agree to me but even most agree for what is my opinion, what have done by the protagonist is not still good in the eyes of our God.
The laws of man always aim for the common good, but it goes beyond the boundaries of personal descretion and culture that causes divisiveness--in beliefs, views and perspectives.
Bob Lee has brought happiness when he decided to assassinate the masters of everything he'd gone through, not just for himself, but as well as for the unconscious mass. What makes us happy determines who we are, and there Bob Lee was happy when he did that; he was happy because what has to be paid was paid, what has to be removed was removed, and who shall be blamed were blamed. And Bob was brave, pain nourished his courage and he emerged stronger.
I stand for Bob as correct, I'm with him to his conquest because it's the best thing that should happen. In such case, we cannot say that nobody is above the law, especially we are bumping giant walls who are more likely grasping the horns of fools and, can drag their opponents. Morally, he messed up in the eyes of God and in the eyes of many people, but we have different perceptions about morality. What is imporatant in such scene is to preserve the common good---to do what would be beneficial and not let the destructive pervade. What he did was heroism because he saved the whole nation. He is not legally nor morally liable because he found within him the greatest reason of it.
For me, Bob Lee is not immoral when he killed the persons behind the crime. Yes, he commit mistake when he agreed to kill the President but the law of their state is not fair enough, he is in prison while the persons who are the mastermind are still free. He just did what he thinks is right because the persons can still do something worse if he didn’t killed them. He just did what was due to them. And I think he is not really a bad person, they just make him angry that’s why he did those things.
How could we say that what we do is right? As I watch the movie I didn’t thought that there is wrong with the things that Bob (main character of the movie) does, but when I connect it to the law of God that is the only time that I realized that what he did is not right because he violated the law’s of God. In my own opinion, I disregard the law of God, I think when he killed those people was right. He just give justice to what he experienced because the state can not give it to him, and if he didn’t kill them especially the Senator, they can still plan to do things against the President just to get the power and authority.
In my own point of view Bob Lee is moral because he does not only think for himself but also for the sake of other people.
Even though he kill the senator and all the people which were involved in that crime still it is moral because there is injustice in the country and at least it will lessen the bad person that have bad intention in their country. If he doesn’t kill the person behind that crime there is a chance that their country will be unstable and many people will be killed.
My reflection at the end of the movie “Shooter” makes me think if the protagonist in the movie did is a moral or an immoral act. The protagonist in the movie is Bob Lee, he is a former Marine, a sharp shooter, and he fights for the right of others as well for his self. If I’ am going to analyze the story, the action he had done maybe moral or immoral. I can say that its is moral, in the sense that if I where in his situation I do the same way also to lessen those bad people on earth. Those people who became his opponent did badly to the government, imagine they were chosen to serve the country but then they were the one who are making chaos to their country. The terrible things happened in Africa, I think Bob makes a revenge for them, he feel so sorry for them for what they had suffered. In the other side it is immoral, in the eye of God it is a sin because no one can’t judge the bad thing they had done, no one can’t do to get the life of others, and it is God who will make it. Vengeance is not ours its God; we should not take the first step for what things not satisfying to us, we should let God makes His own judgment in the times come. We do have our own perception in the movie we are free to choose if what he did is moral or immoral…
The thing that he do on the last scene is considered morally acceptable and legally incorrect.
Morally acceptable in the sense that he kill the senator and his fellow because thay had done wrong and set up him(Wahlberg)for a crime that he did not do.
Legally incorrect is that he puts justice in his hands. He doesn't wait the international law to punish them to what thay have done.
