Assassination? Murder?

[Awna_Enmacone]

Really now, i've been pondering on the difference between "Assassination" and "Murder".

The real question is: How important does one person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? They're the same THING!

[Bot-Bot]

murdered could be in plain sight, while assassinations are usually sneaky and undetectable

[Sayara]

You murder a civilian.
You assisinate the president
You exterminate a bug.
Its like a status thing. You don't say, I ASSISINATED THAT BUG! You exterminate them.

Same like "exterminating the Pope." It makes less sense

I mean like the deal with assassination is that it usually serves some political purpose..

annihiliation... is just like... destroying something... no conotation?.

[Awna_Enmacone]

Oh. Alright. So, you mean to tell me, that only an important/political person can be claimed assassinated, yes? Then here's another question: How political or imortant does someone have to be before assassinated?

Or am I repeating the same question...?

[Sayara]

If they're famous. They're assisinated.

OMG THEY ASSISINATED JOHN LENNON etc

Say like, Scott Johnson was murdered last night. He's not famous. Hes just a murder.

Anilliated is more on the lines of destroy, destruction. Not kill. (Not usually anyway)

[CupOfCoffee]

When I get killed, I for sure want to have been assasinated instead of murdered.

Annihilation = Mortal Kombat, don'tchaknow?

murdered could be anybody anywhere with no motive, while assassinations are usually pre-empted and planned out to the very minute details in advance!

It's an inside joke... That's my excuse... It's a very old inside joke, and since no one knows about the ninja "squirls"(or as you normal people would call "squirrels") plot of world domination!

Everytime I see a squirrel run across the road, I always think they are comeing from--or going to-- their ninja camp, where they train for their day of war against the humans all over the world. Every once and a while you'd see a squirrel get ran over by a car... Those are the squirrels that slack-off and play around. Ya, the pink ninja squirrels are the ones who have accomplished their training and tasks. Ever wonder what happened to Hitler? Ask the squirrels, they've been planning that long.

As you can see, I've had alot of thinking in this, but it's all true! Squirrels are watching... (http://www.supyo.com/home/crazypics/images_20/ninja_squirrel.jpg)

I totally did not get the take him in the bath line until solly pointed it out >_<

[DizzyDi]

What if it was a really important bug? And you planned it out, in advance? Like if President Bush had a pet cockaroacha, and you killed it.
Is that extermination or assassination?
DO YOU EAT SOUP OR DRINK IT?
WHAT IS THE SOUND OF ONE HAND CLAPPING?
IF A TREE FALLS ON A BABY AND NO ONE IS AROUND TO HEAR IT, IS IT STILL HILARIOUS!?

That didn't explain why it was spelled Squirl.

Sounds like a combined squirt and hurl. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif
