Zeus 08/10/18 12:30:19 PM #16:	_AdjI_ posted... Zeus posted... In a nation with legalized abortion, punishing parents of a newborn seems kinda silly. Come on Zeus, you're better than that. Search your heart, you know my words to be true. _AdjI_ posted... Zeus posted... Not to mention that, as already noted, other parents whose kids die from a neglectful action aren't charged for it. Which largely boils down to a combination of culpability and how willing they are to repent versus reoffending. Here, they were very culpable and don't seem like they're about to change their ways to ensure the safety of their other children. Which, at best, is an argument for taking the kids away, not for charging the parents. However, given that the kids are still newborns, there's probably not much point terminating custodial rights unless you also laying claim to children in the womb. _AdjI_ posted... Zeus posted... Considering that murder requires intent, obviously not. They noticed the child was too thin but chose not to seek any sort of help. Where doing nothing could reasonably be expected to cause the child's death, choosing to do so therefore qualifies as intentionally killing the child. That's still not intent. Nothing has demonstrated that the parents even wanted the child to die. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:906630687] in Conservati...
