I'm not saying these people don't deserve it, but what good does it do? Wouldn't it be better to, IDK, kidnap them in order to exchange them for actual human rights? Like, giving away your freedom and potentially your life in exchange for a bill for a public health system?

The original suggestion certainly seems like a way for a single person to have more impact.

My understanding is there are marginal cases where violence is the answer, but I suspect this isn't one of them because of succession.
