Guys, i'm vexed. Honestly, the word "vexed" sums up my current state of mind here, and I'm not comfortable with it.
I really am in a state of total vacillation here. I'm totally stuck between two view points and can't seem to go to either one.
Here's the story that has me so unable to decide how I feel. It's going to be a docufilm.
https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/tv/a28365547/michelle-carter-guilty-sentence-jail/Honestly, should she be convicted of manslaughter for this? A part of me says yes and an equal part takes the opposite view.
Does manslaughter really cover this? If she intended him to die it seems like murder would be the charge. Did they charge her with manslaughter because it felt like the "best fit" of existing laws to charge her under? Should there be a new law and criminal act to cover this?
I really don't know. I mean obviously she's an evil b-tch and if there's a hell they've likely reserved her a place in it, but under mortal law can she be convicted of being a hateful evil b-tch? If this stands, how far can it go?
I feel that I should have a view on this, I just can't decide what it should be.
I'm....
vexed.
