that is dependant on whose perspective the issue is in light of and whether it is under the premise that a supreme being (god exists) socially and from a populace ethical perspective it is considered wrong. meaning society believes its wrong and so does the popular belief. that makes it ethically wrong
your morals should tell you its wrong because empathy is a basic human instinct. homicidal maniancs lack empathic skills so for them it is acceptable from a moral perspective
from a theological perspective (in terms of god) it is wrong because he commanded man not to. you dont know the potential the individual had and god laid down a rule for you to observe
therefore it is socially, ethically, morally (unless you are a homicidal psychopath) and theologically wrong to murder.
