Yes, definitely tragic, wish there had been a lot more.

Muppets, no loss to society

They seem to sit on the wall and enjoy the show.

Idiots.

I find the lack of compassion in these responses appalling!

 

Nah, I can't support that statement. As long as no innocent passerby's were hit, then SERVES YOU RIGHT, ya loser bikers!

They have no respect for life here 

so no sympathy from me 

 

And none of us did that when we were young ?

 

I did!!!

Street racing but in cars (drag strip style).

Hide and go seek in cars (no headlights at night time).

 

Come on. Most of us were 'young and dumb'.

Agreed... A loss of life under any circumstance is tragic...

 

However, the lack of compassion on this thread is quite understandable.

 

Fortunately no 'innocents' were hurt or killed.
