We should not, because morality has to be universal in order to be valid. You can not say a certain group of people have opposite rules of morality to another group of people as you can say math changes depending on what day it is.
Sure you can. It is moral to let people function freely who seem unlikely to do others harm. It is immoral to let confirmed murderes do the same.

If you are engaged in a war, it is moral to kill enemy soldiers. It is (usually) immoral to kill civilians, or anyone on your own side.
