True, but boy-oh-boy do they frown upon it!

Oh, but there is plenty in this world that is worth taking a human life. Just not worth it to you. Homicide, murder specifically, has an endless array of "yeah, why not?" motivators. It seems to me that the value of human life has undergone such ridiculous inflation in the last 200 years. What are we worth?
