Killing the few may be bad but isn't it the lesser of two evils.Not necessarily... the few may have been very wise and benevolent leaders, and the many may have been rash and malevolent vagrants.
In general, that would be the lesser of the two evils... but that doesn't mean that it is absolutely less evil...

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
