Description

everyone is given a button that can revive their loved one at their physical and mental best before they died (memories intact).

murder: the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another. Assume that murder is still illegal in this universe

misdemeanor: a nonindictable offense, regarded in the US (and formerly in the UK) as less serious than a felony.

Concession, vote.

Nice catch on the topic.

Personally, I would be in favor of being killed in such a world; as I could then be brought back in better health than I am now. Granted, that would be an assisted suicide, not a real murder.

at the press of a button, like I can I BB presented.

@Intelligence_06

A felony, like it is now. The problem with the resolution is that it says "most" loved one. How will this person be revived? How will they keep track of who loved them the most? Murder happens at a spectacular and terrifying rate, having everyone they ever were related to seems tedious.

@BearMan

Are you arguing that it should be a crime or it should be nothing at all?

Murder itself could be a non-crime. However, various other crimes committing related to the method of killing would still be in effect.
