I don't think in that case it's about dismissing any emotion, but rather letting another kind take hold. Instead of dreading to kill the man, possibly I'd find peace in helping his soul move on (if he's been begging for people to finish his life). I have no idea what'd really happen. I don't think being emotionless is possible because I think apathy is an emotion in and of itself.

Have you personally ever felt emotionless in that you could use "cold judgement?"
