Terminating threads without properly unwinding the stack is
generally a very bad idea. Most importantly the destructors of
stucts on the stack won't run which can cause problems like locks
not being released.
This isn't specific to D either. For example Raymond Chen writes
about the TerminateThread function in Windows here:

You should signal the thread somehow that it's time to stop
working
