      This is the only logical answer for this. Otherwise- their deaths mean nothing.

        That’s not logical? It doesn’t even have a legal basis.

        The real logical answer to bad government management is the French one - protest

            We might be headed toward the same conditions that spawned the French revolution. I’m not in favor of that but once the wealth transfer gets to a certain point there’s historical president to draw upon.

              That isn’t going to happen. And in the very off chance that it does- the government is guaranteed the win, and the people will suffer.

              Greatly.

                The government is made of people. Those people might refuse to do their jobs too.

                A protest is SUBSTANTIALLY more likely to happen than the original suggestion of charging state lawmakers with murder. There’s no murder charge that would qualify.

                  Reckless endangerment and manslaughter.

                  They were warned that women would die due these laws and they didn’t listen. They recklessly put those laws there and people died… resulting in manslaughter.

                  I’d prefer homicide too, but I feel like manslaughter charges would stick better because you don’t have to prove intent, just that someone died because of their actions.

                  Riiiiight. Well, have fun storming the castle. Just don’t make a mess on my street, okay? I don’t want to have to clean that shit up.

          Okay, so is staff included in that? And what’s the legal basis? What law could they be charged under for this?

            Depends on how involved they were in the laws creation. Probably not enough to matter though. Their bosses could be charged with involuntary manslaughter on an individual basis, conspiracy to commit murder as a group or individual.
