means that one would never do anything to intentionally hurt anyone?

That he should somehow be exempt from any kind of suspicion?

Give me a break.

You seem to be really emotionally invested in Stewart, and want him to be innocent.

I clearly stated in a previous post that I don't think he's guilty of murder, but negligent homicide. There is a difference.
And, he is currently undergoing his due process under the law. For that he's owed no apology.
Millions of people saw what he did, and opinions are divided. If Stewart has a brain at all, he must realize this is his best chance at clearing his name.
