Here are some "loopholes" you can use to legally get away with "murder": 1) be an executioner, performing a state-sanctioned execution, 2) be a member of the military and kill an enemy combatant, 3) be a doctor performing an assisted suicide in a jurisdiction where that's legal, 4) defend yourself from a violent crime in progress.
You might argue that none of those are actually "murder," but in fact legal "killing." I'd agree. I'd counter that a "legal loophole," is the same idea. The operative word is "legal," and "loophole" is tossed on to spark outrage.
There's also an argument to be made, that some of the legal killings I've described are morally wrong. That's a subject of much debate. You're welcome to hold yourself to a higher standard than the law requires, or to lobby to change the law, but we have laws so that people are not subject to the individual morality of everyone, but on the consensus we come to as a nation.
