How old should children be before being left alone?
: I have no sympathy for drunk drivers who kill people. They choose to
drink. : They choose to drive. They deserve more punishment than they typically get, : which is usually a mere 'vehicular manslaughter'. And why "vehicular manslaughter" anyway? Why is it any different from regular manslaughter? -- ColoradoSkiBum |

: : exactly -- it is what defines murder and its degrees Then why is "manslaughter" (accidental killing) with a gun any different from manslaughter with a car? -- ColoradoSkiBum |

It may not be, in terms of penalty; but it may depend upon why you have the gun and what you were doing at the time. Killling someone with a gun, even if by accident, if you were committing a crime is a more serious crime than killing someone with a gun by accident while you are hunting. Killing someone with a car while driving drunk is generally considered a more serious crime than killing someone with a car because you were careless. Manslaughter, like murder, comes in varying degrees, whether by car or by gun or by any other means. meh -- Children won't care how much you know until they know how much you care |
