    Yeah. There judicial/extrajudicial murders. There is different levels of manslaughter / accidental killings and such. Then there are the different degrees of murder. Even the mislabeling of products hsve brought “manslaughter” charges…

    Anyway, yeah, many many people are either directly, or indirectly related/responsible for someone’s death.

    In a sense, by levels of separation, I am indirectly responsible for a couple different people’s death…

    Its not something that someone would put blame on me, I mean, I used to party with a lot of people, these people died while “partying”… not while around me, or because of me, but I didnt discourage the “partying” these folks were doing.

      You want to get philosophical? Every mother and father are both directly responsible for the death of their children - even when that death is natural causes by old age, it wouldn’t have happened if they weren’t born.
