You know damn well if it had been somebody like say Al Gore, who had shot somebody, we'd be screaming for Al Gore to be frog marched into prison.

Speak for yourself. Maybe you, but if it was a genuine accident (your Gore hypothetical), why would I want an innocent man go to jail? I don't think Freeper would support putting an innocent man in jail. That sounds very DU like...

[Flavius Josephus]

Now we might call Gore a buffoon, an idiot, and a scoundrel, but we wouldn't call for his arrest and imprisonment. Wait, we call him those things anyway.
