As it should be. An automobile driver exceeding the speed limit by that amount would be held responsible for injury/death he caused.

But the Liberals had decided that the train derailment was caused by lack of maintenance, which they blamed on Republicans.

At the time, Chris Mathews said that Republicans treat trains the way they treat Hispanics.

Their minds were made up, that Republicans hate train maintenance, so Paul Ryan and company were to blame.

Doing a 35 mile rated curve at over 100 will cause a certain amount of ‘accidents’ over time.

I think it is impossible that this guy was not an obvious problem before the ‘accident’. His colleagues and managers should also be charged.

I always thought this was German Wings situation.

Still, them dropping charges twice & reinstating them doesn’t seem right.
