Myer has explained why the Cullens can't stop other vampires from killing. Killing and drinking humans is the acceptable way to get your nourishment. ALL vampires kill humans in order to survive except for the Cullens and the Denali's. It bothered me too how Garrett acted with his human victim...teasing him...then biting him which inflicts a burning while alive pain. We have to also remember...this scene was not in the book. Laurent, although not a vegetarian...offered to kill Bella quickly first...then drink her blood. This was actually a kindness...since he could have bitten her and she would have writhed in pain. But, the Cullens can't do anything about other vampires except request for them not to kill humans in their territory. If the Cullens' tried to stop vampires from killing humans...that's all they'd have time to do. Eventually the Volturi would discover this...and they and all the non-vegetarian vampires would kill them.
