They are both terrible but I hate to be the bearer of bad news, one is distinctly worse than the other. Like there is no recourse for murder there is no coming back somebody is gone. Like the big 4 in order is murder, rape, arson, armed robbery. You don’t nearly go to prison for as long as you should for rape and that’s a problem we should fix.
That’s not murder, that’s killing. Killing in self defense is never murder because you don’t sit and plan that shit out, murder is the distinct nature of intentionally planning to take someone’s life. And yes some people try to set-up self defense situations to give them the right to kill but they usually get caught case in point the husband and au pair currently on trial. Self defense ≠ murder; especially if you know the definition of murder.
