So, was Shepard justified in threatening a police officer when he tried to do his job by charging a quarian with vagrancy?

Was Shep right to threaten the C-SEC offcier?  Technically I'd say probably not but the officer and Volus were unjustified in their accusation against her so....

They're incapable of feeling emotions. To quote Legion- "We do not experience fear, but we understand how it affects you." This suggests an inability to feel emotions, like compassion.

Yeah, it also suggests an inability to feel any emotion. To date there is no evidence that geth feel emotions at all and by their own admission they don't.

Exactly, so how can you blame them for their "reprehensible" actions? They aren't doing things out of malice, only logic, you can't blame a cat for killing a bird anymore than you could the geth for defending themselved, they can't be reprehensible if they're incapable of feeling emotion.

I hold them responsible for it. I also put that out there just to add to the discussion. If you really want to get into it I don't consider the geth alive at all so I don't really regard them as anything other than a malfunction.

However the game presents them as living beings and as "living beings" they are morally reprehensible.

So you attach human emotions to otherwise non-living beings, would a coffee machine be morally rehensible if it malfunctioned and burnt your hand?
