If you murder people, you've got to die. End of story.
What you're suggesting there, is that motive and circumstance are irrelevant. I can understand that perspective. Except that you've already made clear that actually motive and circumstance do matter to you. You consider it more offensive for a mother to kill her child than a father. If circumstance and motive are irrelevent, then it shouldn't matter whether it's the mother or the father, it should offend you no more or less.
