I am seriously curious....as this is a forum of thought:

What is the difference percieved here, If you kill someone....is it not Murder?
Or do we get to pass the guilt of this act onto the faceless entity of societal acceptance. To me at least....killing someone is a bad thing....regardless.

I do not need the Negative Karma
