He showed no remorse, in fact he looked arrogant.

1. Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!!!
TWO counts of homicide????

That fetus was only 16 weeks...not legally viable.

Somebody's trying to subvert the law here. That's only ONE count of homicide.

2. Agreed
While it's awful that it happened, it's even worse when pro-lifers step in and use it as a tool for their cause.

3. I am PRO-CHOICE but
If the "fetus" was a wanted and loved potential child it was a terrible loss.


The two counts are bunk though .Just one "person" died

4. We should make the driving test harder
One should have to demonstrate that they can merge with 70mph interstate traffic while talking on a cell phone and eating french fries before being allowed to drive.

Why do we spend so much time and energy making cars safer to crash instead of making drivers less likely to crash them?
