All murder is vicious. There is nothing civil about it.
Are you saying that an accidental murder is the same as beating a child to death which is the same as the 9/11 murders?
fitting considering this is the dead-thread.

Mass murder is genocide.
Accidental murder is manslaughter, there's a difference. Murder is a vicious act, but to make it murder, it requires vicious intent. If the intent is not present, it becomes manslaughter.

the best way to get our points across is to use examples.
Under Canadian Law, manslaughter is a type of murder in which the accused could not control the direct circumstances surrounding the death/killing and therefore intent can not be found/proven.
i'm not sure about american law, but according to our courts, this is murder, but not vicious.
