You can try that, but in my experience with my own conservative family they just don't care. It's the inverse of "I'd rather ten grifters take advantage of my charity in case I help at least one real person". They're okay with killing innocent people so they can get the few criminals. They know and understand completely. But they live in an echo chamber and never think about how it impacts them, that they themselves even risk being the murdered innocents.
Thats something Ive seen as well. Its best to begin with the innocent being wrongfully executed so if they admit that innocent deaths are fine as long as the guilty also get killed then you know they just like the idea of murder without consequence and can stop there.
