Obviously the first law limits him the most. However Butcher has done an excellent job of showing why the laws are there. Black magic is addictive and soul destroying. Even Dresden admits that killing DeMorne tainted him. When he first took Molly as an apprentice he noted that it took years for him to recover from the addiction of killing even once in self defense. I doubt he would use magic to kill even if the law was repealed.
