Topic	what exactly qualifies as murder vs manslaughter?
averagejoel 03/15/22 4:56:04 PM #15:	Chunkey Simmons posted... there is such thing as voluntary manslaughter though why would #1 be murder and #2 be manslaughter? the only difference is the gun. is it because #1 is more severe? anyone can correct me if im wrong, but determining manslaughter vs murder is not by severity. just because it's more severe, does not mean it gets bumped up to murder. murder is premeditated, manslaughter is not. sure, the guy beat the other one up, and he wanted to harm that person, but he did not previously know the person and did not plan on killing him prior to being riled up by the argument legal terminology, and the implementation of that terminology, differs a lot according to location. but generally, no, murder does not have to be premeditated. 1st degree murder is premeditated; 2nd degree murder doesn't have to be --- peanut butter and dick <cite>averagejoel posted [p:963473456] in what exact...
