I missed this when you posted it; if Merfilly hadn't recced it on Dreamwidth, and if I hadn't broken my usual habit and actually looked at Dreamwidth for a change, I might never have seen it. Great, as usual.
Actually they are particularly careful of the innocent. In the whole of P1 and P2 not a single unarmed person died; even in the massacre on the subway train Harrigan noticed that every one of the dead was armed and the Predator spared Leona, even though she carried a gun, because she was pregnant. It was AvP where they, to some extent, acted out of character (and the third of the AvP books but Ptah! Spit! we shall speak of it no more).
And Alexa is awesome, yes, but Machiko Noguchi is more awesome.
