I just don't think it's good for a person's psyche to kill someone who's lying there defenseless, regardless of the bad thing that person did in the past.  There's a reason executioners in medieval times wore masks and asked the condemned to forgive them.  There's a reason the firing squad issued mostly rifles loaded with blanks.

It's not that hard until you start doing it by the thousands, then your Einsatzgruppen start to get a bit depressed.
