      Yeah like, this wasn’t an accident. This was willfully killing someone. If she shot or repeatedly stabbed him, I don’t think you’d see the same sentiment. Something about hitting them with a mass of metal at high speeds is more sympathetic, because death by car strikes us at less violent.

      I’d be incredibly proud of my mother if she could do that. Not many are capable of having empathy when someone they love is the victim.

          So you’re assuming what the mother’s intentions are to fit your own opinion, rather than believing her at her word?

              …you don’t think she gave thought to the other people victimized? Even with one of the victims being her own child?

              I’d bet my life that she’s put significantly more thought into this than either of us could possibly imagine, and that calling her a narcissist is simply closed-minded and pathetic. She’s a grieving mother ffs.
