[QUOTE="2000gt4.6, post: 15206324, member: 123767"] 1. You said that street racing is the only activity which kills innocent people yet is 100 percent avoidable. It is not. 2. I get it now, it's OK to kill innocent people, so long as the specific activity youre engaged in is legal. Yeah, that makes perfect sense.... 3. [url]http://dnr.wi.gov/topic/hunt/IncidentReport/huntCurrent.html[/url] So item 3, from a government website, hunter shooting victim 811 feet apart (non hunter). Ha ha right? Let's remember, even one is to many... too bad about 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 16, 18, 19 huh. This is ONE YEAR in ONE STATE. 4. Speaking of illegal activities, by a accelerating hard and going over limit youre breaking the law. But somehow that is OK because you're "paying attention to your car". But people who are street racing are somehow all not paying attention to their car or where it is driving. Only you can do this, and only when nobody is beside you... da faq? Also, you will "man up" if you cause a accident while doing a illegal activity, but somehow everyone else doing a very similar illegal activity (literally the only difference being the number of participants ) will certainly never do so. Wow... 6. So, once again, you engage in an activity that you infer may be illegal but in your opinion can be safe if done correctly (hard acceleration and speeding). However, adding a second driver to the mix now make this activity completely unsafe to not only the active participants but also to John q public. Regardless of situation, location, speed achieved, etc etc. Two cars accelerating side by side is always dangerous while one by itself is not. This could be used as an example of hipocracy in a dictionary. 7. Of COURSE the person causing the death was acting stupidly. Just like a the under 20 street races a year that cause non participant deaths. Just like you would be if you were on a solo high speed cruise and crossed center on a curve, plowing minivan mom. Just like I would be if I choose to street race on a busy street with lots of side streets and plowed Billy bicycle on the sidewalk. That doesn't stop you from picking a empty back road to fly down. And it doesn't stop me from doing a little 0-90 run on the empty four lane divided streets that circle the city here. Every activity you do, every day, has some inherit risk. Getting out of bed today might end up killing you. You must gauge the risk. And with the millions upon millions of street races per year, and the resulting 100 deaths, I'd call it a activity that can be done fairly safely under the right conditons. [/QUOTE]
