When ANY killing is acceptable, murder becomes slightly less reprehensible to a society.
If the state kills someone through the courts because they deserve the death penalty, then when a murderer feels a person deserves it, they can justify, in their minds, the killing of a person.
Again, any killing of a human should be the ultimate taboo. That’s the way to decrease murder in a society.
