If Harry Whittingham dies from injuries related to his accident can Dick Cheney be tried for involuntary manslaughter?
No.
But if the same man were shot in the same way by any other person, the answer would be yes. Expecially if that person was of another ethnic catagory. Or of another economic catagory, political affiliation, social strata…
The divide between the worlds of the “haves” and the “have-nots” just got a little clearer.
