Whoa, when I read the title of this post I thought it was about killing hostile people. Might want to edit it.

Same here, but that intrigued me and made me want to read it even more. Didn't get what I came for, but still got something of value, so I'm happy.

I've been trying to think of clearer phrasing, and not getting anywhere. Suggestions?

"Filtering out" hostile people?

"Excluding" hostile people?

I've changed the title.

Curiously, the "killing" interpretation hadn't occurred to me before, but the first time I saw the new title I initially read it as "... executing hostile people".
