The murderous child seems almost like an internal problem
among players... mobsters, rivals, enemies, Hatfield McCoy, etc.
That always exists and is relatively self contained.

Now an Assassination Politics instance operating in either
autonomous mode, or in a "managed" mode for or devolving into
sick bloodsport profit that raptures on humanity's tendencies
therein, a distributively supported TV gameshow straight out
of fiction memes "Let's bid $random human for $20k Alex"...
these modes would have some real problems regarding
innocent people getting originally harmed.

That's different from say a distributed "fair" Hammurabi Code.

And different from the original harm happening everyday
news in essentially one on one unrelated and first events.
Not much improvement happens there without lots of
outreach, cultural education, hippie love, etc.

The bloodsport and actions of Governments and even
Corporations, their force against voluntary choices
following no harm... would surely end as their workers
quit them in droves.

The question herein is which sport is worse, better,
or more easily solveable or minimized, and by what
means... Govt's or the Gameshow's.

Does not the potential, and even propensity and or
eventuality for sport (as history shows), make both
Govt and AP very difficult to recommend, and
essentially impossible to recommend as "pure" things.
