California Penal Code 399: If an owner knows their animal is dangerous or mischievous, fails to keep it under control, and it kills a person, the owner commits a felony. If only serious injury occurs, it is a wobbler (depends on extent of injury as to whether misdemeanor or felony charges get pressed.)
No state completely lacks a legal mechanism to penalize or hold owners civilly or criminally negligent in this case, and most states explicitly have criminal statues covering this.
Are you just being willfully obtuse or what?

Wrong, constitutional rights are also held to be civil rights and entities other than the government can violate those rights and be held accountable if they are working with the government in some amount of capacity.

You're too late, one is in orbit and I'm making an even bigger one right now.
Go figure, someone with heavy thermal regulation experience in semiconductor technology is what's needed to properly cool high-tech in space and make what everyone says is impossible into reality.
And I do it with only a GED.
