No.
Simply because we as society say "You shall not kill" whether linked to the religious commandments or not but we basically all agree killing people is wrong.
OK - therefore for me society loses its moral high ground if it then says - Actually it's OK to kill these people because they did x.... How long before that morphs to and these people because they think Y.
It's a philosophical opposition from me.

@OldBrit Look at pro-abortion people that want to kill healthy babies before they come out. There are lots of them around so it appears that killing people is OK with them until you see them protesting the death penalty then they get moral. Their reasoning should allow eve later term abortions then like executing the 20 + year old that is living in your basement rent free, eating your food and doing drugs with your income.
