So we agree that people killing people is either "evil" or requires a very good reason/cause.
We agree that adults killing children is cowardly and should be punished to the full extent of the law.
I think that's as far as it goes.
Do I think that murder committed by gay/straight/religious/atheistic/Polish/Jewish/hermaphrodites says anything about any larger group of which they are members? I do not.
Murderers do not think like we do. Strictly speaking, no one who kills another for any reason besides self-defense or in defense of the life of another is a little sociopathic. They are not reasonable or appropriate representatives for any group that includes them aside from the group of murderers like them.
To murder another human being makes anything else you may be or have made of yourself insignificant, not worth considering.
Murderers are anomalies.
