A Civilized Society Cannot Allow Unjustifiable Acts: Especially Murder

We for the most part live in a civilized society. As you well know, such a society is governed by rules, values, morals and laws. Implicit in our laws is the idea that we can not kill one another and certainly not under the color of authority.
The value of a human life or of the lives of humans should never be compromised or marginalized.
There is no enlightenment in the crime of murder, that is the killing of one human being by another. Homicide without a clear justification is homicide.
There is nothing which allows us to flail uncontrollably like a homicidal maniac because a few fools will support our crime against humanity.
If such a notion is to be tolerated only an imbecile would not be able to quickly perceive where this foolishness would lead us.
