Although this is not on topic, I have to say that comment is a little hypocritcal. I'm sure the whole swearing back didn't make your post more offensive than necessary either eh? The ad hominem's going around are really not necessary.Eh? Spout? Shut the fuck up. Whenever I write something about Shinn I only use the show itself as source material. Things can't make much more sense than that now can they?

Also #2, do something about the way you phrase your posts. This is not the first time they have come off as a lot more offensive than necessary. If you can't do that, don't bother to reply to what I write.(
And as this is my first post, I shall strive to go back on topic in terms of Heine's death. Yes Kira is at fault, indirectly. This cannot be refuted. Taking out all of Heine's weapons in one blow left him defenceless. However, being in FAITH would show he is skilled enough to recover from such a thing. Floating around in the air and watching the foe who ripped you isn't the smartest thing to do, especially on a battlefield. Verdict: Heine dropped the ball there for sure. He did a mistake I would expect a rookie to make but he's not completely at fault.
Furthermore, let's look at at the results of the Archangel's contributions to that battle specifically. Their interference caused Heine's death for sure and possibly a few others but for the most part many were saved. Had Archangel not shown up, surely Minerva would have taken a pounding. Why do I say this? Look at the battle where Athrun got ripped apart by Kira. Before the Archangel appeared, the EAF and Orb alliance were doing a damn good job of pounding the Minerva. Surely they could have done something similar in the earlier battle, although this may not be so as we cannot be sure of the preparation they may have done in comparison to each assault. Meh. Whatever.
Edit: Geh. Being distracted while making a post is bad.
