Are You Important?

Here's one to think about?

How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

Haha, searching old threads and saw nobody touched this one!

It is a good question. Where is the line? Does anyone outside of politics get assassinated?

You have to be a world leader of some sort or member of a governing body.

John Lennon wasn't assassinated, he was murdered, as was Robert Kennedy. His brother John was assassinated.

Thought of that, if being the leader of The Civil Rights Movement is a world leader deal, then he was assassinated, otherwise he was murdered.

Assination or murder , either way you are DEAD!

If you watch cop shows on tv they often use the term "killed Assination style" in reference to a mob suspected killing.

Does that mean street thugs are important?
