They make a good point. In fact I've thought about this before myself. Kirby's killing countless little critters that, when you stop to think about it, aren't evil. Of course, SOME are, some really are attacking you, but most of them are sleeping bears or careless walking mushrooms. What did they do to deserve adorable wrath?
Well in my mind, in Dreamland everyone's immortal and don't feel pain. "Killing" things is just an inconvenience that makes them be reborn in spawning points across the land. It's about the only way to justify this sort of thing.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
