He's not saying that actions don't have consequences. He isn't saying that speeding wasn't idiotic. He isn't saying that he was never provided with the opportunity to know better.
He is saying that murder is a stretch.
- James_Duval 13y agoIf you acknowledge that actions have consequences, it follows that if you commit an action which has a high chance of causing a certain outcome (in this case, death), you are responsible for the outcome. In this case, I would say that the responsibility which this teenager has can only be called "murder".
