seems to indicate this reports factually with loaded wording, so it seems likely this happened

beautiful kids 😊
why is the internet attacking me
as replied elsewhere, yeah I agree that's insanely irresponsible, but we didn't know that until now.
agree completely. that's fucked. I accept it may not have been malicious but it's crazy irresponsible.
but that detail came out a day after the guy baying for his blood above, my point was if you have no idea what actually happened, focus on having compassion for people affected, not immediately getting a pitchfork and yelling for "justice".
that kind of justice... well, it usually isn't justice.
there's a lot of things that feel like they should be obvious, but are almost impossible to prove mathematically. it's the difference between seeing something happens, and understanding why it happens and proving that it will always happen (or not, and why)
ohhhh I've been there! Freezing day but still gorgeous
in a world with dwindling resources people are satisfied with something they already own. sounds wonderful.
you want to jail everyone who drives an SUV for life?
i mean i fucking hate SUVs and melbourne is absolutely filthy with them - i absolutely think they should have a tax penalty to discourage anyone living there from owning them needlessly, but still - if this is some older farmer who had an unexpected minor stroke and has to wake up to the news he's killed five people, i'm not going to be standing in the fucking hospital berating him about his choice of car and trying to make him feel like a murderer. that's absolutely fucking awful.
have some opinions on sensible car regulation, sure, but this is gross. wait until you know what happened before calling for blood for owning a type of car or some shit.
he was sober and apparently unconscious? afaik he hasn't been interviewed yet while he gets medical treatment.
I mean if he did it on purpose, sure, but dude you have zero idea - it is entirely possible this is a medical event he had no control over, and he now has to live with being the driver in this awful situation.
can't you just care about the people affected without immediately wanting some completely uninformed revenge?
on the one hand, yes, I write software and take showers when I'm stumped because it's a great way to think through it.
on the other hand the world didn't need an article about it.
