It's disturbing to me how you can think of no other thing for me to mean than that I want to either murder criminals or let them commit murder. This discussion is over.

    Last word: you're the one who brought up murdering criminals - I just suggested you needed to equate them to animals in your head so you could justify caging them like animals.

    Criminals commit murder, about 400,000 officially recognized / classified murders per year, much higher than that in reality of course, but 400K/8B is 1/20,000 per year, more like 1/400 lifetime, average, globally, just the official ones not the overlooked ones in war zones or lawless / uninvestigated situations. It's not a problem that can be ignored or written off as insignificant.
