Today we're finally getting to the topic of homicide in Crim Law (I mean, isn't that what most people think about when they think about criminal law?). All this craziness about first and second degree murder and manslaughter and negligent homicide and malice and whatnot is interesting and all, but I think there is a more significant issue:
Have you ever broken down the word "manslaughter" into its component parts? Have you noticed that it breaks down into the words "mans" and "laughter"? As in "man's laughter"? Isn't that weird? I think it's weird.
