Jacobins tried this. I'd prefer the non-aggression approach so noone not deserving of it accidentally loses their heads. Even though there is no shortage of those deserving of it.

Yeah but how do you get them to voluntarily give up their power without violence, and keep them away?

The same way you choke out a fire starve it of fuel. Killing people tends to put gasoline on the fire.

It is impossible to fix things without collateral damage. We don't have that luxury. We are in a mortal fight for the future of all humanity. It may be that we must kill 9 innocents for every ONE traitor.... that's just the way it is.
We may be placed in a situation where we knowingly MUST kill some innocents in order to kill the traitors. Nature is not the sunshine and lollipops play-world that you were promised. We are in a place where you must KILL to ensure the survival of the species, and the morality of killing will not be a clear-cut, black and white equation.
Disabuse yourself of these infantile notions of "fair play" and "justice for all individuals" and you will understand the true nature of the situation we find ourselves embroiled in.

You choke out a fire by starving it of fuel. Killing people tends to put gasoline on the fire. And harming 9 innocents to kill 1 enemy is a good way to make more enemies really quick. These people don't live in a vacuum they have family and friends that get pissed off when you kill the wrong people the same thing happens in Yemen when we bomb 1 terrorist at a wedding. Now you've made a whole bunch of new angry terrorists. There's no strategy or tactics in what you're saying.

Guillotines are even more stylish, in my ever so humble opinion.
But the enemy does not really deserve that level of compassion.
