A country of fools and murderers that agreed to a law that allows murder may have adhered to the due process for arriving at such law, and they may think their legislation is as you call it “acceptable”, but the law is still not legitimate in absolute terms of justice and therefore neither is their government.
Truth in general does not depend on the number of people finding falsehood acceptable. 2+2 is still 4, abortion is still murder, murder is still an unjust act, etc.

I will not dispute your defintion of murder nor do I need to.
No positive act can be regarded as essential for the legitimacy of any government. Just because you think such things essential in your mind for good government does not mean others might find them either essentially or unnecessary. You may regard them uncivilized but not any government not your own illegitimate.
