    The point is that despite murder being a horrific crime, as a society, we have moved past defining people as singularly evil for all killings.

    We have not, and we should never move “past” that position.

    To the extent that they understand not to pull of shit like stabbing people, at least.

    Your standards suck. Get some better ones.
