You might as well say "that tornado killed my family! I'm gonna make it pay for its actions!".
Doesn't that sound silly? It's the same thing.
IF the guy was out of his head, you're not "making him pay" for anything. You might be stopping him from doing something that endangers others. You might leave his family with a giant hole in their lives. You may even be doing the right thing. But you are not "making him pay". That would require that the guy understood what he was doing was wrong and somehow could have avoided the situation entirely.
