But I disagree with that because I see no value to communal vengeance.

But whether there is a value to "communal vengeance," in terms that it would be beneficial to society is an empirical proposition that can be evaluated with reason. Clearly, there are crimes that are horribly heinous, the question is does it serve us well to kill the perpetrators of such crimes even though the possibility of killing an innocent is not zero. I believe that it is, but it is in principle possible to evaluate this.
