"killing isn't inherently wrong"
I don't care to argue anymore semantics. You get what I'm saying and I get you. I just think that killing feels wrong for good reason, and that's a very popular opinion. Stop acting like it's a silly one.
Killing is wrong in general, but can be justified by circumstances.
It is never neutral. Only ever unacceptable or justified.
E.g. killing billions by making the world uninhabitable is unacceptable, whereas smashing an oil execs face in with a baseball bat is obviously justified.
Then you would have no qualms explaining that to their 4 year old daughter who watched you do it.
Why would I force a child to watch violence? You're a very strange person.
It's justified
It's needlessly cruel
