    How delusional do you need to be to make this correlation? Did Ukraine drive across country lines to participate in another countries conflict?

      take a gun to a place specifically to oppose a group you hate,

      Are Ukrainians not specifically armed, and going to where the Russian occupiers are?

      then you kill multiple of those said people

      I’ve seen enough drone drop videos to know that they are indeed killing Russians

      that you knew before leaving home that you hated.

      I’d hate people that came in to my country and just started shooting missiles at schools and hospitals.

      It quite literally fits the “definition” that was posted. Of course it’s absurd, that’s the whole point. The definition the other person was using was broad and vague enough that it dilutes the term to the point where the word no longer conveys useful meaning, yet they still insisted that meaning applied in a very well defined legal sense.

        That’s a lot of words for you just making up a straw man. It’s not even remotely an applicable comparison. I have no idea why you would bring it up and it serves no purpose.

          I mean, the other guy literally made up a definition for murder and argued that. It is as strawman as it gets. I just pointed out that the definition they created encompasses clear cut self defense situations. And… That they can’t expect a court of law to hold someone accountable for murder using their made up definition of the term. So either Kyle did murder people, using that made up definition, but the term loses its meaning because the made up definition dilutes it, or Kyle didn’t murder anyone, because the actual definition for murder does not encompass cases of self defense.
