What do you think she needed the satellite system for?

Exactly... Buffy thinks she's being proactive with pep. Better weapons and equipment mean that her Slayers can save even more innocent lives. And not die in the process.

Stealing bread to feed your starving children is a crime, but most people wouldn't call it immoral. Embezzling a million euros so your children will never have to go hungry again is a different matter. At what stage do you draw the line?

Exactly and that's the beauty of it. Most fan criticism of the decision to activate the potentials has focussed on the possibility of there being some bad 'uns or of all of them suffering as Buffy did when she was the only one. Which completely misses the more interesting point that going from one to many *qualitiatively* changes everything. The world really is all different. Even if Buffy were to continue to act exactly as she always has done the scaling effects of her being one of many make the ethics of it completely different. One woman stealing a rocket launcher is an innovative solution to a seemingly intractable apocalyptic problem. 500 girls stealing 500 rocket launchers is a threat to world peace in and of itself.

But to use that well trod phrase "because it's wrong". Buffy is making herself a target by thinking she is outside the law.

Should be 'fun' seeing how Joss makes her realise that fact...

That's a million dollar question.I wonder if Joss has a valid answer or he just threw the robbery in for laughs.
