minus-square@mindbleach@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink5•1 year agoI don’t think fuckery after-the-fact can change whether you intended to kill someone.
minus-square@BlackDragon@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agoMurder. You’re not going 75mph in a 25mph zone and trying not to kill people. Doesn’t matter whether there was a specific target in mind.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink2•edit-21 year agoMurder requires malice (i.e. intent), and you don’t meet the standard of intent just by exceeding some level of recklessness/negligence.
minus-square@BlackDragon@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoDriving 75mph in a 25mph zone is malicious and indicates intent to kill people.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink1•1 year agoNo, that’s not how intent works. What it shows is recklessness.
minus-square@BlackDragon@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoMaybe that’s not how it works by your definition of intent, but it certainly is how it works in mine.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink1•1 year agoI’m just using the legal definition.
minus-square@BlackDragon@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoRight, and I’m not a prosecutor so I don’t give a fuck about specific legal definitions.

Unrepentant Murderer.
