No offense, and this is not meant as an attack. But no one that is alive knows what it is like to be killed.

The simple thing here is this. Ok, because of the below.

If I am walking down the street, attempting to get on with my life, and you were in my way, would it be ok for me to shoot you in the head? You would not feel it, we have already proved as well we can that a round through the head and the projectile impacts the medulla oblongata, that the time it takes the bullet to pass through the skull and the gray matter is less time than it takes for the pain receptors to process the "feeling". So knowing that you would not know what hit you, would that make it right, or acceptable so I can get on with my life?

If not, how can you say it would be ok for Suzy to kill unborn kid two thousand and twelve? He would not know it (if they killed him before the pain receptors formed).

You're equipping them to become violent killers.
