Kasz, your analogy is piss poor and you know it. Stop trying to drag it on.
Contributions made in place of a gaming budget would be meager at best. A couple hundred dollars, perhaps. That would help, but it wouldn't make any kind of permanent change. It would just provide temporary relief for a couple people. And besides, what's to say these people would starve and die anyways? That's a pathetic assumption. Perhaps people in third world countries are starving and dying, but people in the U.S.? I seriously doubt it's a large number. There are tons of homeless shelters, and I've met a lot of homeless who refuse to even get help (and let's not forget the assumption that they're homeless at no fault of their own).
Find a better analogy please. |
Ok. Instead of homeless. Giving money to the international food bank to feed people starving in third world countries.
Something like a $100 dollars can actually do a lot in the third world.
Regardless EVERYBODY fails to comit actions that lead to others deaths.
EVERYBODY makes mistakes.
This man made a mistake. HIS child died... and he's going to be punished for the crime of being stupid... and nothing else.
Is it his fault he was stupid? Probably not... he didn't do this out of some act of malice to the child afterall.
Should a man be thrown in jail because he accidently killed his child by getting a dose of medicine wrong? Because he mistook mumps for flu? Because she hit her head and he thought she had just a bump, but she had small internal head hemorage?
Accepting bullshit alternative medicine is something that needs to be done as long as healthcare is left to the parent.

Okay, but you're forgetting some very basic things. This person is his daughter. When she became his daughter, he became her guardian. He has immediate control over her life, and it is his duty to look after her. In this case, she was suffering, and he refused to take her for care. There are billions of suffering people in the world, but he doesn't know them, nor is he obligated to look after them. This is a completely different case and you know it. There are laws in the U.S., and he broke them. There's no law that says that he's forced to give to charity.
Stop pulling this bullshit.

No he didn't refuse to take her for care.
He chose a different form of care that proved ineffective.
He's no different then those people who refuse lukemia and try to cure cancer with tiger balm and clove.
