Actually... If you're not wearing a proper military uniform (as in: recognizable as a combatant instead of a civilian), then you are in fact a criminal. Only soldiers are supposed to do the shooting, and only soldiers get protection from the Geneva convention. If it were any different, how could soldiers distinguish between soldiers and civilians at all?
