I'd say she inherited it from Raven... who definitely has it, and roughing up mooks like that definitely doesn't seem to show regard for human life... hell the only reason you can say she doesn't have a killer instinct is her motherly aspect... which can actually exist simultaneously with a killer instinct, so it really doesn't disprove it.

Another reason she doesn't actually kill as often as Blake, is that she uses blunt trauma, which appears to be more effective against aura, while simultaneously taking the receiver out of the fight before you need to kill/maim them... in other words... getting punched hurts and can incapacitate without costing an arm or a leg.
