Maybe I should rephrase - "You murder, you die for it." Killing in self-defense, murder by complicity, and accidental killing ARE NOT murder. They do not fall under legal definition of murder.
actually - USA Prisons are one big vacation because criminals who go there do not have decent life in public. They do not have any money, no shelter, no food, nothing. That's why they commit senseless crimes because they just don't care anymore. Prisons are their sanctuary.

All killing of a human being is unlawful, therefore it is all murder. The difference lies in degree. Malice and aforethought are attributable to 1st degree. Manslaughter would apply to accidental death.
But your statement was, "You kill, you die."
You are very confused regarding our legal system. The federal prisons are full of white collar criminals who had plenty of money, big, fine houses, foreign sports cars, imported food on their table along with someone to cook it for them, and all of the finer things in life. How do you account for them being in prison if your reasoning is true?
A prison a sanctuary? Please! You need to visit one sometime.
