Make your men desensitized.  Any captured wild creatures or goblins, have your desired survivors stand under a pit, and drop things to die near them.  This will make them "doesn't really care about anything" and makes them virtually immune to tantrum spirals.  So, even if your mayor dies and your haulers go insane, your stoic military will slaughter them and your uncaring weaponsmith will make sure those blades are still sharp.

Soo... pit-trap a-la above, down to fortification'ed off spike-pit in dining room?

Dorfs can see in, and watch as the goblins/etc splatter, but are prevented from getting in the way by the fortifications?

Hmm.... I like the thought of that.
