Maybe this would be a better analogy if you could murder a bunch of people at once, and no one, including the victim would ever notice. Or maybe if solving one murder prevented all future murders of the same type. Or maybe I should just read this as a punchy response, rather than a decent analogy. In which case I should probably just downvote the comment as sensationalist ;)
