- Hey, it makes the pre-meditated kind of murder (murder in the 1st degree) a lot less prevelent. Murder in the 2nd degree and manslaughter are a different matter. (I don't condone capital punishment actually. I was only illustrating that we need to make the consequences of the actions of these lowlife's not worth it.) But we definitely need to stiffen the penalties and up the efforts in our cybercrime departments of our police forces.
