Three days before the infamous exploding Great White engagement in Rhode Island, a Chicago nightclub stampede killed 21. Somehow the verdict in both was veritably the same. We wonder if for all the foot-stomping such calamities engender this may be the only possible outcome. There isn't enough negligence for the law, but there is enough negligence for personal shame; nonetheless shame hardly rises to the level of true punishment, which is why such verdicts don't quite seem right.
