Lets stop using the one-dimensional characterization of homicide as the benchmark for human wrong doing. Even the idealistic prohibition of the Judeo-Christian Ten Commandments doesn't rank homicide as the primary Thou shalt not...
We instead excuse away, make light of ignore all the other misdeeds of human activity that are torturously prolonged, inevitably homicidal, just as the one-dimensional characterization of homicide.
In 2008; The National Political_Economy. Life savings, retirement, homes were lost. People were being laid off to the tune of 700,000 a month. People died, a veritable economic homicide and lives were destroyed. This Political-Economy cataclysm was the result of certain specific calculated act by individuals who are integral members of the status quo.
During the same period statistics of the one-dimensional characterization of homicide as the benchmark for human wrong doing clogged up the justice system while those individuals responsible for 2008; collapse of National Political-Economy and it's ensuing cataclysm and economic homicide not only maintained their status quo existence but the national public and society, victims of the National Political-Economy collapse, the veritable economic homicide didn't even understand the situation as being criminal, the quintessential benchmark of human wrong doing.
The new York City Police Department, epitomizes, as all other police jurisdictions across the nation, the practice of measuring it's social-duty and purpose by the after the fact arrest of murders at the expense of ignoring those instigating factors which are direct consequences of the impunitous inequities of the National Political-Economy so for example the ruinous realities of the 2008; Political-Economy cataclysm can happen and the New York City Police Department can with a straight face claim it's policing practices has decreased homicides and this claim assumes convention because society has come to idealistically accept that the benchmark of human wrong doing is homicide while the quintessential human wrong doing which is an accountable Political-Economy is left to determine the totality of the Human Condition and it's activity.
