Yes, but I think you need a reason. Certainly, a better one than; "if someone else gets to do it, so do I."

Again, I enjoy inflicting pain on those who enjoy inflicting pain upon the helpless. I feel the same way about child molesters/killers.

I'm not saying my murderous inclinations are justified by some morality, but I can at least pin my pleasure and reason for killing on *something*. Can you?

Why would I need a better reason than that? Making sure we all have equal opportunity to kill seems at least as valid as enjoying killing cat-torturers.
