Because unless you plan on becoming a lobbyist, or politician, or activist nothing will change. Sitting around saying “They have to get in trouble in some manner” doesn’t do anything. If you want that to happen, since they are legally protected from what you want, go make a change.
How can I register that I don’t want leniency for someone who manslaughters me?
Like, I get it. We like in a society. Compassion. All that stuff. It doesn’t have to be life in prison. But it better be enough prison to ruin their life; just enough. Just enough that they always feel like those things that Ursula turns all the mermaids into in little mermaid. Like king triton looks like a little shitty barnicle instead of a big muscle daddy.
Oh, and no memoirs or books or anything about how they were the first guy to get postmortem denied parole because of my no pussy manslaughter sentence clause.
In a way I agree, there has to be a major deterrent for this level of negligence. That said, “ruin their life” isn’t IMHO the right way to go. I’d be happier if they kept living a productive life, but they’d better be supporting the people who depend on me.
You want them to learn their lesson but how do you do that without ruining lives? How do you do it before they kill two people? I think that level of change has to be governmental and even cultural. Reducing dependence on cars, increasing how seriously driving is taken, etc
Yeah, similar thoughts. People fuck up, make terrible mistakes through stupidity or bad luck or whatever and end up killing people and the best thing for society as a whole is rehabilitation and forgiveness.
That said, if it was one of my family, I’d be campaigning for the driver to have “my negligence killed two people” tattooed on their forehead so they never, ever get to forget the damage they have done

Tesla has to get more punishment than NOTHING. This sucks

Your point being?
They are legally protected from the punishment of more than anything. Nothing will ever hit them with more than NOTHING.
Then the law has failed, which was my point from the start.
Why would you try to belittle me by repeating my opinion? That doesn’t make sense at all.

I don’t live in the US, but the first step towards change is getting mad and raising awareness, this is the change I can make.
Closer to home, I full heartedly support the strike on Tesla Sweden for example.
