My very first post on this board asked this question. How can Buffy justify killing demons if they have teh potential of doing good. When a vampire arises from the grave who knows what its unlife potential, if vamps can do good. They can't. We've been told that over and over (most recently in Angel's speech in Loyalty). Angel has had his soul returned, so he is a special case. Spike seems to be getting special dispensation by Buffy. its never been clear as to why though.

Willow was headed the path of power, not evil. Darkness, not murder. [I really hope their point isn't that anyone can be driven toevil, even someone who has already taken a moral stance against evil "I'm going to stay in Sunnydale, I want to help fight evil"]. Besides alienating a whole lot of fans, ME is treading on very precarious moral ground here. If Willow actually murders Warren it will be very hard to believe that she deserves any fate but that of Faith. The murder of one human by another, warranted or not, must meet human justice, not supernatural (and yes I am placing the value that human lives are more valuable than demon in the buffyverse).
