I absolutely don't condone it. It's disappointing as I thought, going by the prequel comics, that they would actually care about that character facet. Like, it was enough he was so brutal anyhow, but ultimately it's not a deal breaker. The way some people were going on about it, I expected Punisher level type of "no mercy" kills and he didn't even do it in "cold blood" or whatever. If I'm honest, it's more of the same with what past live action Batmen have done. Even the one that had a code not to. I wish there was more set up with this Batman though. Whatever they cut out of the film could have been important to justify, maybe not the right word, why he became so aggressive. And the weird editing in this movie didn't compliment a seemingly good arc. At least I'm glad the ending hints at him going back to his old less aggressive ways.
