Also removing the possibility of a repented Malcolm being decades longer on the earth doing right... HOW SHORT SIGHTED CAN WE GET
I had bullies in school and had to deal with a fair amount of social concerns.

Your argument could be used to stop the good guys in all conflicts that could hurt or kill another, including war and crime situations. After all, all rapists, suicide bombers, murders, etc. caught in the act could wind up more holy than the Pope (who’s not holy).
You should be against the use of deadly force anywhere for any reason. Are you such a snowflake?
