Because it is hypocritical that our hypothetical justice system has deemed murder punishable by death. We must demonstrate that we can be civil with our justice system.

But see, now you are looking at just the consequences again and not the purpose of the action. Killing a killer in a premeditated case has a completely different intent, and therefore the action is entirely different and no hypocrisy exists.

Edit: A little off topic but, I wonder if we had different words for it (one would be murder if there was premeditation and the other one with the court order would be an entirely different word) if that would change the minds of some people. Knowing how fickle and dumb the populations are in general I wouldn't doubt it.

They do have different names. One's called execution, the other is called murder. Those terms imply the intentions too.

Anyway. I'm looking at the intention, but I don't think the intention is enough to justify the deaths.
