Why is it wrong to murder a man? Does the statement hold under all conditions? For instance, say that a single man legally controls all food in an isolated village, and he is not willing to share. Maybe he is a disgusting man that nobody likes, and your children are about to starve to death. Is it ok to kill that man, in order to prevent your children from starving to death, by taking his food? Whether the answer is yes or no, what id the reasoning behind the answer? Regardless of the answer, I don't judge. I consider both answers valid. Extreme situations like this, just like the gulags, cuts away all moral superstructures and pretences, and reveals your true values. For one person "not murdering" can be fundamental, for another "ensure the survival of your childeren" can be more important.
