i know why:
normal raiders have the leather jacket hero male skin, with suports all weapon tipes and they are in low numbers
if we can enslave them they will be a cheap and more easly optaineble alternative to moonshiners combat slaves, and the male raiders will be puted as militia
i agree with the green hair female ones, but for the male ones, i have my doubt
Me and two guys could easily walk over 20 male raiders even if they were militia at a town, they're crappy, have no EW skills likely, and have no BG skills. so no rocket launchers, no laser rifles, the best they could use really is an assault rifle. have you ever tried to kill the little weaklings with mausers and spears before LagMaster? also, gangs don't use combat slaves either, since both male raiders and combat slaves have under 100 HP, low resist to damage, low skill, and otherwise wouldn't even be able to defend the town against anything other than a bluesuit rush at best.
Hello?!!!
You wrote it, so if you don't mean them, don't refer to them at all, just to going all smart on me after that, boy! 
A: You already saw that i mentioned it, and that i wasn't talking about them, so why did you repeat what i already said?
B: I put that there so that people would know which raiders i'm talking about, to limit the confusion.
