See, this is what I'm talking about. You'd enjoy seeing someone ground up to red paste. Someone bearing the image of God (even though they're evil). As a contrast, David wouldn't bring himself to kill Saul even when he had a chance because he was "God's anointed". Justice must be served, but grinding people up into paste and liking it feels pretty far from what our attitude should be.
I said I wouldn't have any emotional response. In what way did I imply that I would have liked or enjoyed throwing people into a meat grinder? I wouldn't like it. That's emotional. I'd simply shrug my shoulders and move on upon hearing the news.
Any emotional reaction I'd have would be upon hearing the news that justice was served.
Say these people are proven guilty for crimes involving the rape of children, trafficking, starting wars, theft, etc. Don't you think that they should be executed? I'm not saying "red paste" execution like some dystopian, prime time TV game show ... I am saying by more traditional means (hanging, gas chamber, firing squad, etc).

Sure, absolutely. Justice. We're on the same page about that.
