Harvard Law School owes you an apology. You argue that the notion of harm to others being the only criteria for illegality would permit the killing of homeless drifters, because "[a]fter all, if someone kills a homeless drifter, how does that affect anyone else?" The fact that the obvious answer, "duh, it affects the homeless drifter" eludes you shows that your professors have done a deplorable job of nurturing any latent critical thinking skills you might have--no doubt the latest in a long line of failures in your upbringing, dating back to your parents' failure to instill basic human decency and empathy.
On the other hand, as the old joke goes, law school sharpens one's mind by narrowing it. In that regard, your teachers have taught you all they can, and you have clearly far surpassed them.
