You're cheapening it. I'm not doing this because it's easy. It is the furthest thing from simple to take a life. Even beings like them...

But I also know that, in reality, they have displayed a power far greater than we're equipped to handle. How would we detain them? What are the chances of the scientists agreeing to replace their chips? Your plan contains too many variables that allow the suspects changes to cause more chaos...

I want this to be done right. I want to be able to just arrest them and remain on the side of presumed righteousness. But... I know that will just end up with more dead.
