You said it sent a weird message if we said "listen children, its wrong to kill so sometimes when people do it we kill them".
This is no different than saying "listen children, its wrong to rob people from their freedom so sometimes when people do it we rob them from their freedom".
Whatever reasoning you have for imprisoning people it still is taking away their freedom, no matter how noble your motives for doing so are.

I don't really care for your semantic hogwash about two sentences that look alike. I could explain to kids that the man murdered a man, and therefore he should die - that isn't the point. And yes the sentences look alike but they are not.
Punishment and revenge are two different things, and if you can't see that I have no idea why you are even in this thread.
