Differing Concepts of Justice and Freedom

When it comes to justice intentions count. If I kill someone to stop them from killing a defenseless child, or I kill someone because I don't like the color of their skin don't you think there is a differnce. Or is it just all killing to you?
If we were planning on bombing Aushwitz but decided not to because we might kill some of the guards families because they were innocent would that have been the right thing to do because killing is killing?
Only a moral relativistic ivory tower moron would make such a stupid statement.
