Except that I remember attending several F1 races on the streets of Vancouver.
In fact there was a person killed in the very first race.
And again... (Another US Shooting)

You flunked highschool. Person is just a legal term. Persons don't need to exist in the flesh to be persons. Persons aren't living creatures.
I strongly suspect that would be the result. Most likely several dead cops as well.
Again the problem is not so much with the cop on the ground, but the politician controlling the training budget. Your average street cop, especially in a small town, does not have anywhere near the training required to pull off a stunt like that.
Interesting. We have been having similar discussions in firefighting circles about body armour and sidearms. SOme of the cowboys think it is a wonderful idea. I will quit before I will wear armour to save someone's life. FOr 1 thing it breaks the first rule of First Responders.( Is the scene safe) Then there is the pay. WE make around $15 per call. Not enough to get your ass blown off. The safety rule is US(firefighters, paramedics) THEM(victims) Everyone else . Certainly we will take more chances if there are viable life forms that can potentially be saved than we will for an empty building. But wen don't do suicide missions.
I don't recall leftwing politicians doing much of any use either. About the best they can do is steal guns from honest taxpayers.
Person is a legal entity and nothing more. Corporations are Persons but they arent living flesh.
Then why is your age calculated from the time of birth and not the time of heartbeat?
Except those streets of Vancouver for those races would no longer have been streets but a closed track during those races, right? Those F1 cars where not limited to 50km/h and stopping at red lights, stop signs, etc…as in “following the rules of the road” ‘Cuz at the time that those streets where not streets but a closed track.
Following the rules certainly would have made it a different race.
I’m not even talking about abortion here, & I can see people trying to debate the above comment getting hung up on the term person…. that’s not relevant, but what is relevant would be the term life.
A fetus in the womb is potential, whether that womb is in a person or a giraffe. The species is not relevant.
If the fetus isn’t “alive” then it can’t die if it was never alive. If something happens to make that fetus transition from viable to non-viable and no longer a potential life form….is this just semantics in terms or language (?) simplified by using the terms alive vs not alive or dead (?) correctly or not? Does this question make sense?
If the entity in the womb loses the potential to become a viable “living” member of whatever the species the owner of that womb is…. What do you call that change of state??
A fetus becomes alive when it can survive and not "die" when removed from the womb. I think that is around 22-24 weeks.
Another fucking shooting?? WTF???
