Its so stupid to kill people. So why do people do it. I watch Court TV and all these crazy people, what are they thinking? I see people kill their wives for life insurance. You know your going to get caught. I see people who kill their children so they don't have to pay child support even though the other parent never was going to go after child support from the father.

Killing is perfectly natural. How do you suppose that piece of chicken got on your plate? a butcher killed it. Does killing a human rate different then an animal, yes. Why? because people can talk think and they are familiar. So we relate to them, we cant relate to animals so we dont comprehend the loss. We eat animals, if someone ate a human they would be looked at as savage. Why? because we RELATE ourselves.
You probably arent a hunter. If you can kill an animal what means you cant kill a human, taking a living entity is taking a living entity. Is it wrong for a man to kill his wife for insurance, well of course. Would it be wrong for a man to kill his child because of money YES.
People kill that have no moral upbringing, or they kill because they were taught to defend themselves. Killing is taught just like eating meat is taught. People kill because they were taught. If your parents taught you that it is ok to hurt someone that hurts you, who says to what extent you will hurt that person.
Furthermore, people that kill are not looking ahead. They feel what they feel and act accordingly. Bottom line is they dont have enough common sense and self control to know, that if you do the deed you better be prepared to succeed.

It's all relative. To you, a person who's psychologically balanced, it may appear to go against moral values. Some folks aren't so psychologically balanced. Their perspective is relatively different. We'll never understand why tigers toss their cubs into the water and raise the survivors simply because our relative perspective is different. It's the same way pain is relative. To a child, losing a favorite toy can be just as devastating as an adult losing a parent. Everything is relative. The only way to truly understand is to be empathize or personally experience those perspectives. Of course, when it comes to murder and violence we KNOW that it causes pain and that it goes against moral standards, so we KNOW we shouldn't murder and kill. Certain folks just don't have that healthy psychological balance to discern right from wrong.

Some kill in the heat of passion (jealousy&rage), others kill for money, some do it to fullfill a sexual fatasy (urge) and yet others do it just for the thrill or because they like it. There are as many reasons as there are stars in the sky but the bottom line is, they are filled with EVIL!!!!

People kill because they make their own choice. We all make our own choices, one way or the other. We have to watch that by being an example of how one should live their lives. Of course, we all make mistakes, sometimes big ones, but hopefully we learn from them!! Two rights dont make a wrong! Or people do this because of anger! But you must remember one day everybody in this world is going to die; u shouldnt be scared of the say of judgement you should be prepared!

Arrogance and inappropriate tunnel vision and stupidity.
Arrogance because they think they are too smart, too vicious, or too careful to ever be caught.
Tunnel vision because they can't see the consequences of their actions, only the imagined benefits.
Stupidity because they don't watch enough CSI and Court TV to realize that it is getting harder and harder to commit the perfect crime. 99% of the perps out there leave behind enough physical evidence that they will eventually get caught.

Evolution. When we were cave men and women, if you killed a rival, your genes got transmitted, the the other guys stopped. Murder is quite common among the great apes.

There are a myriad of reasons why. But none of them are acceptable. Murderers should get the death penalty. Just my opinion.

Well, most murders are never solved, so actually, the odds are good.
You don't mention anything about the people who deserve it.
