"Tragic? Perhaps. But unnecessary because HE made the wrong choices."
This is one of those examples in which you demonstrate that you believe public execution for minor crimes is acceptable.
Unnecessary because they both made wrong choices[/i]
Tragic because it cost one his life and will cost the other mentally/emotionally for the rest of her life, even if it does not cost her her job or more, which it well might.
His mistake did not have to cost anybody a life or livelihood.
Hers did.
If dumbfuck showed up in court, he'd be alive. Maybe behind bars, but alive.
His fuck-up led to the accidental shooting.
HER fuck-up caused his death.
His fuck-up was not an excuse for her killing him.
Did he earn prison time? Sure. Death? Not even slightly.
Um...his fuck-up put him in the position for the accidental shooting to occur. No one here is arguing he deserved to die, just that his own actions created the circumstance.
That's pretty much indisputable.
You want to argue his death is great loss to society? Go right ahead. I'd like to hear why.
His actions created a circumstance.
Her actions caused his death.
HER failure. Why is that so hard for you to simply agree with?
His death is a tragedy. Is his loss, in and of itself, a great loss to society? We'll never know, will we?
Despite your assumption that you possess god-like powers, we have no idea what would have been different had he lived, for good or ill. People with worse histories have contributed positively, people with better histories of done damage.
He should not have been killed. He did not deserve to die for that crime.
