Do you feel the same way about a criminal who drives his car at 45 MPH

Please cite a few examples.


Such imaginary scenarios are as easy to dream up as the imaginary
scenarios in this thread of a cable thief causing deaths.

A children's home is on fire. 136 children are trapped on the top
floor. The fire engine is delayed by 4.27 minutes due to a car being
double-parked on the access road. The delay results in 22 children
dying who would otherwise have been rescued.

You really want me to invent another few imaginary scenarios?

Heck, I could come up with a situation in which opening a window
caused the death of 100 people.
