International and US laws affirm the right to life. No arbitrary authority may deprive it.
The Constitution's Fifth Amendment states:"No person (shall) be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law."
US statute law (18 USC 1111 - Murder) states:
"Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being with malice aforethought."
Holder believes otherwise. Last March, he said:
