other than by the institution of slavery itself, but they killed the plantation owner and his family.

Murder, justifiable homicide...something else?

What about indian uprisings. If injuns attacked a wagon train and killed people coming onto their land...murder?

An abused wife, not under duress at the time, kills her habitually abusive husband as he sleeps. Murder, justifiable homicide, something else?

Please don't bother with a legal definition. The purpose of this little exercise was to get people to realize that "murder" means different things to different people.

Even libs disagree on some of this.
