Putz should be charged with murder (or at least manslaughter). No one else could have answered the damn cell phone?

Absolutely tragic :(

For anyone throwing stones at this guy, the mans children are all dead... it would not hurt you to have some compassion. After all, YOU have never answered a cell phone while driving?

No
I don't own a cell phone and I don't want one
drive your car
watch the road
arrive alive
my heart goes out to the children's mother
their father is a moron who will live with the guilt of this until one day he drinks himself to death or blows his own head off

News reports this morning say he's been charged with manslaughter.

If there were three adults and five children in a car, you can bet most of them weren't in restraints. Not that it matters; the adults bailed, leaving the kids to die.

Well I own a cell phone but I dont own a car- and I dont want one. So I guess neither of us have to worry about this scenario. I see people answer cell phones in cars every single day- and I daresay its the cars that are the real danger, not the cell phones. People get killed in cars all the time even when someone isnt answering a phone.

This is a tragedy though, no matter how you look at it.

Apparently he's being charged with three counts (until & unless they find the bodies of the two little girls) of intoxication manslaughter.

The fact that he was drunk doesn't help much either.

Daily Horoscope for December 10

Cancer

Someone dear to your heart isn't exactly a barrel of laughs today, are they? Is it your imagination or are they taking a perverse delight in spreading doom and gloom in all directions? If they've got good reason to be miserable then they deserve your sympathy, but even so it may not last for long. Try to keep active and cheerful, otherwise you'll also develop a tendency to brood.
