153. I don't know

if I would call something like this an "accident" unless it was dark, pitch black and they were walking in the roadway, which also wouldn't be an accident in my eyes. It is likely the result of negligence or inattention.
That doesn't excuse murdering someone, but I think I could understand the unimaginable and instant grief and anger.
I don't want to jump to conclusions, but we see careless people countless times per day. Driving like they are the only ones in existence, texting or talking on their phone while they are driving, swerving all over, driving 25 under or over the speed limit due to their distractions. They get by with it day after day after day and cause countless deaths, injuries and property damage. Then one of them hits and kills your child.
Anyway, that's a lot of unfounded speculation on my part, and it doesn't in any way justify shooting and murdering another human, I'm just saying I think I can at least in a small way understand his reaction.
