Is it wrong, do you think, for someone who is angry at two other people to wish them a death by fiery car crash? I mean, it isn't nice, for sure. But, assuming for the purposes of this argument that the angry person didn't actually go out and make sure such an incident occurred, is it wrong?

Legally? No.
Morally/ethically? Yes, without a doubt. That's just evil.

Depends what those other two people did.
If they stood by and watched while someone died in a fiery crash without trying to help?
If they purposely caused a fiery crash?
Did they drive drunk and cause a horrible fatal accident for someone?
Maybe someone was just wishing for them what they did to someone else?
Ethically, probably wrong, but then again, I've never been wronged enough to hate so deeply. God forbid it ever happens.

Sorry, that could be offensive. But it made me laugh.

It's not right, but legally it's not a crime.

Morally it's not right-it's the same thing as cursing someone to death.

It only hurts the person thinking it. It rots them inside. They're actually already rotten inside to wish it. Sickening.
