[Consider this?] MURDER?

    Let's take a step back into time, our magical time warping trolly has led us to the days of Imperialism. The times when mighty Kings sat atop thrones hailing fortune, or the distinct opposite amongst his dearest patrons and most savage enemies. I have halted the trollies trip to this time to beg the question of murder! If you were a king and someone crossed you, you crossed them...with a blade to their neck. Back then it's like people were so disposable, but if a person is stabbed it makes the news channels and blogs, and candle light services are held. Some deaths even spark human rights campaigns! I figure it's because humans have gained humanity given we no longer sleep outside in huts. It could be maybe because each human for the most part has important jobs or placement, and we as humans make so highly of ourselves that when we leave it is raise or concern...what do you think? Why is death such a taboo thing now!?
