'And I think that the reason that we're so against murder as a society, is because WE might be the ones to get murdered. As a society (please don't reply and say OH NOT MEEEE! because I mean this as a society as a whole- take a look at our laws on the books if you disagree) we seem to be all FOR organized murder. '
I think you've got a point there. Whenever I hear of a murder on TV I always imagine what it woudl be like if that was someone I know, and that's what makes me feel outraged about it I suppose.
As for organised murder, it depends, we don't have any death penalty here in the UK so again, that's another thing that depends on your 'society.'
It's quite weird because we've been talking about 'our society' like we're all part of the same society, but we aren't really. Sure we're in developed countries in the western world, but I (think) in the US laws even vary in between states, so even in the same country what might be acceptable in one part isn't in another.
Re: Is it only wrong because we might get caught?
