My "crime"? Good grief, it was a mistake, let it go already.
When did this become about murder?! Well, if you want to go there I'll go there. When I mention intentions in crime, I mean something to this effect: if someone hits someone with their car because of a lapse of attention, it's called vehicular manslaughter, or involuntary manslaughter, or in some cases "not guilty." The reason it's not first degree murder is because people acknowledge that 1) it was an accident, 2) it wasn't premeditated, and 3) it didn't involve malice. Done. I'm not discussing this with you anymore.Considering intentions in crime is unfair. The best way to create a fair system is to make all murder sentences extreme. That way the murder of a poor baby is the same as a murder of a drug dealer. Murder is murder.
I welcome any responses regarding the topic of and ethics (not about my teenage quarrel, sheesh).
