So, if a single person is killed by a government-mandated airbag, we should throw away all the safety trade-offs (the numbers of people killed and saved by airbags) and remove the airbags?

Emotional slogans should be abolished, end of discussion.

The difference is you wrote "killed", LocalH wrote "murdered" (implies intentional killing, I believe). The death penalty's only intention is to end your life (and cynically speaking, save life long imprisonment costs).
