Deeming an 18-year-old soldier 100% responsible for their choices is inconsistent with what we know about brain development, especially when there's a national propaganda apparatus talking them into the wrong decision. We can't (rightly) recognize how kids should have their development factored in by the criminal legal system (when there isn't national propaganda taking them into crime) but then turn around and ignore all that for 18-year-old troops.

Oh yeah, I'm not saying let teenagers completely off the hook for serious crimes. I'm saying it's a factor we should (and sometimes do) consider in a criminal context, so it should be a factor here, too.
