I would not applaud killings of people sent to death by their
contemptible leaders. Neither would I applaud killings of
people because thier ancestors established sovereignity that is
questionably legitimate. 
In general I disapprove of killing of a person for somebody else's
sins, which is what a wholesale slaughter is all about.

But obviously Mr. Martillo was joking.
