No, but we have these neat things called society, and government, regulations, and laws to minimize the damage they can do.

Which ideally should try to solve problems pragmatically, rather than resorting to "excision and destruction"

It depends, we do have prisons and life sentences.

Edit:...And the death penalty, which I oppose, but has been a constant for thousands of years.

Your assumption that the two are always mutually exclusive doesn't seem justified to me.
