    The punishment for that crime is the one in the law on a technical level. This makes mob justice a crime, and people who murder others for no reason criminals. /:

      The proposed punishment is the one written in law. But if no one ever receives that punishment, then that’s not the punishment, is it?

      You’re missing the point too. In fact, by your logic, genocide is legal. Laws are used to do evil things and they’re not the source of morality nor do they dictate right and wrong.
