| Ignorance is lacking knowledge. It is not a text book scenario though. We instinctively know about danger. You may see the blades going around and around. If you do not realise that is dangerous, it is not because you are ignorant it's because you don't have the intelligence to work out it's dangerous; therefore, stupidity.

The people would have seen him put fuel in the helicopter. Start the helicoter. Adjust the throttle. They could have left the room.
Insurance would not cover it, so what? If I took a pee on my carpet (which is not even as harmful as putting oil on it) I wouldn't consider insurance.

How is it stupid? Maybe he is just evil?
Myra Hindley (a murderer) I.Q was about 107, not exactly stupid. Not bright either, but not stupid. When she put an axe in someone, I wouldn't say that was stupidity or 'poor judgement'. She meant for the reaction she got, she meant to cause harm. Now you can say 'well that's stupid to put an axe in someone'. It's not, there's more to life than intelligence. I'm sure he's fully aware of what may happen. He might be irresponsible but we do not know if he is stupid or not.
Stupid people maybe more likely to be irresponsible but that does not mean all irresponsible people are stupid. All sky is blue, not all blue is sky. |
