Why? It’s negligent homicide.

It’s just so diffuse that it doesn’t fit in our crime model. Like polluters who shave years off an entire neighborhood’s lives via health impacts.

Because an opinion can’t rise to homicide, even if it influences policy. That’s not what homicide is. Instead, it’s simply bad policy, to be punished at the ballot box.

Bad policy that needlessly kills thousands of people should be punishable outside the ballot box.

If your policy of letting kindergarteners play with grenades goes bad, you go to jail.
