wondering if this behavior is normal for a 3 year old.
he hits, kicks, and scratches her. he tells her he doesn't love her, he hates her, he wants to kill her

Who is her? Kids that age are starting to be able to express how they feel, but that is extreme depending on how often this happens I would bring it up to the dr or a bahavior specialist.
if he is telling someone that he wants to kill them, you need to take him to the doctor. get a refferal for a child psychologist. that is not normal behavior. the hitting, kicking, and scratching is, but it should not be acceptable behavior. what do you do when these things occur?
Where did he learn about killing people? Surely he picked it up from somewhere. And does he have time outs when he acts up? I wouldn't ignore the behavior.
The hitting and other things are fairly normal, but he should be just about growing out of it. Talking about wanting to kill someone is probably something he overheard from TV or something and he has no idea what he is really saying. Explain to him that it is unacceptable to say that about any one. If the problem continues I would contact a phycologist or counsler.
