That is not logical. The first person took a life without cause. The second took a life under order of the state. The first took a life knowing he would be forfeiting his own for the crime. The second was fulfilling a just law. Under your logic a man who killed in defence of his family or his country is just as much a murderer as this man who killed over a $400.00 debt and therefore should be treated the same. That would be a pretty messed up world.
