I do like the list of completely avoidable incidents that gets labelled as unavoidable here. Some y'all are telling on yourselves.
The guy didn't decide to "murder children". That's a gross bit of fairy tale weaving. Whatever the reason he didn't come to a stop at the stop sign - a thing many people do on the regular, and a thing that truckers in particular do all of the time, as they're often on a time crunch - or didn't notice the bus coming, none of them amount to murder.
Incompetence isn't intent, and the outcome doesn't define the crime.
It's telling that all of this anger and vitriol has lingered around the death of some hockey babie when the similarly tragic Bathurst Boys in Red collison resulted in no charges and relatively little public outcry. The lives of baskerball playing kids are worth a fraction of those of hockey playing ones in this country, it seems.
