Congratulations! That human you raised still turned out evil and stabbed the baker! Now you have an evil human and a dead baker because you couldn't steel yourself and put the creature to death.
Apples and oranges. Humans have no set alignment but Orcs clearly have a natural evil alignment, chaotic evil to be precise, with very few examples anywhere showing exceptions. THIS is what most Orcs do. Notice the Orc having any concern for the Human child in the mother's arms? I didn't notice any.
Of course, if you think the history of almost-exclusively evil Orcs is something that is contrived by those posting here, then please buy Orcs of Golarion and give it a read. I'm sure it will prove quite the read! Read the history of Orcs in particular. It is no mere myth that Orcs are naturally and culturally evil, for it is present in the spreadbook on their kind.
The crux of the entire situation rests on 'are Orcs naturally evil, and thus, enemies to be exterminated?', and my answer is 'yes, they are'. As I said, looking at Orc society and history in Orcs of Golarion, I have not found a single reference of 'good Orcs', nor any references to them. As a matter of fact, due to their innate traits, they are 'not recommended as player characters'.
