It actually is ok when governments do it. I am anti death penalty, but it is not a crime when a government executes a criminal. Your definition of crime is wildly expansive.
Slavery was not a crime, until it was. The death penalty was condemned widely by civilized nations, Amnesty International, a breach of human rights under international law. Your definition of crime is blind.
Yes exactly. Slave owning from 300,000 years ago, until just recently was not a crime and therefore they were not criminals. They do not retroactively become criminals when it gets made into a crime. I think a book on etymology might help you out here.
