The OP does have a point, this sort of thing hurts new player retention. It is short sighted of the high sec PVP crowd to go after them for easy kills. This is not to say the OP or newbies should get any special protections, anyone can go NPC corp any time they want and avoid war.
PVP for tears is lame, go club some baby seals instead. |

EVE is harsh. 'Nuff said.
I've no issue with it being hard, I am questioning the wisdom of ganking noobs. |

Unless you're implying people can somehow opt to remain noobs for their entire Eve career. I guess now that I think about it there's a trend toward that very thing. Curious. 
Excuse me for the lazy use of the word "noob" ... how about younger players that are not yet ready for the trials? IMO, anyone six months old is a noob. |

I am not arguing for some mechanic to protect them. Again, I am questioning the wisdom of going after them. IMO the CCP stance is the only viable choice, "you join a corp, you make your self a valid target for war decs." This does not also mean it is good to go war dec a bunch of noobs just because you can. |

Agreed, my focus was on the "war dec" aspect presnted by the OP. |
