Asserted without evidence, and in any case, irrelevant.
Should driving in Canada in the winter (or in any other cold country) be outlawed? How about driving in mountainous terrain, which is also inherently dangerous? Should we outlaw driving on residential streets, because children sometimes run out in the road in front of cars and get killed through no fault of the driver's? Should we outlaw driving in dense urban areas, because pedestrians crossing the street are at risk? Should Calgary shut down its LRT system, because it has a history of killing pedestrians at grade crossings?
Once you have opened this can of worms, there is no end of it. You want to go there, but you don't want to address any questions except the one you think gives you the answer you prefer.

Again...severely off topic now. This is irrelevant to the NHL dealing with fighting.

Actually, it isn't. This issue touches on huge questions of personal responsibility and autonomy, which one side does not wish to acknowledge – perhaps out of laziness, perhaps because some people on that side are
opposed to personal responsibility and autonomy.
