This is about as on the nose as any take on the topic that I've seen. Holy shit, we're telling people they don't deserve to live. Some simple truths are profound when you say them out loud.

Some people don't deserve to live, simple as. Point-in-case: Hitler

Hitler broke a vital and important contract with others. Live and let live. The moment they broke that implicit contract they totally opened a can of worms and whoopass upon themselves. They totally earned it

More folk need to understand about the contract of tolerance and the golden rule.
