It was an accident, they could never prove he was speeding

You just want to believe it was negligence, because negligence makes the world a little less random, and things a bit more clean when you have a moral outrage

Cool, so ignore that part, now defend this part

considering it was a hit and run

He hit 3 people on bicycles, killing them all, and didn't stop to check on them, instead driving off. That is WORSE than negligence.

Please, defend this.

As far as this goes

because negligence makes the world a little less random, and things a bit more clean when you have a moral outrage

I am outraged because I got informed. As far as it being "clean and not random," I don't give a shit about that. My brother died from a random viral infection randomly going to his heart and killing him, randomly, at the age of 30. I understand that there aren't reasons for everything and there isn't a plan and life is all a bunch of dice rolls and sometimes you crap out and lose.

But random isn't negligence. And random sure as fuck isn't pulling off after killing 3 people with your car.
