4 slots in college football just opened up.
111 mph on surface streets... glad no innocent people got hit
And just like that, the gene pool got a little cleaner...
Daily Mail again. Scooping so we don’t have to
It’s a miracle they only managed to kill themselves..
Stolen SUV? Then all bets are off. It might sound harsh, but the old saying applies. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I will however modify the above a little bit. Perhaps one of the passengers was an unwilling participant. If so, his blood is on the hands of the driver.
Well, the little bastards will never do that again.
More importantly, four Florida Man spots opened up!
If they had stopped as required by law, they would all be alive and well.
Regardless of any other factor.
Once you are in a high speed chase because you don’t stop, anything that happens is on the driver of the vehicle, not the police, the government, or anyone or anything else.
“….two of the teens that were killed in SUV were wearing ankle monitors, while three had active warrants, reports WLBT. Some of the occupants also appeared to be wearing ski masks.
While in a stolen SUV.
Looks like they won the stupid prize.
A PIT or TVI is a highly dangerous maneuver for both participants but is also highly effective when other techniques fail.
110 mph on the surface is deserving of TVI.
Is this story supposed to make us feel angry at the cops?
Or jubilant that the idiot kids won’t be living a life of crime & mayhem and always using the excuse that they were trying to fix their ‘lives’ (as if?)?
More here, but buried in the last paragraph...

“...Authorities said two of the teenagers in the SUV were wearing ankle monitors and three had active warrants.”
“The incident occurred after their stolen SUV was spotted by officers”
It wasn’t theirs. (Now it isn’t there, and neither are they.) Why are they stealing people’s ride?
Have some sympathy.
Now the SUV owner has to buy another vehicle...what a hassle.
Waiting for the political protests since this is in DeSantis Country FL....
Thank you
“just yutes!”
