What part of the words "stolen" and "high pursuit" don't you understand?

These teens broke the law more than once, albeit I am sorry they lost their lives.

"What part of the words "stolen" and "high pursuit" don't you understand?"

What part of the words "needless, dangerous high speed chase" don't you understand? Not long ago these chases were not allowed by police forces for petty crimes like car theft that involved youngsters. There was a damn good reason for it too.... the high speed chases frequently ended up with dead or injured innocent bystanders, or the deaths of a whole carload of kids. If you think this car chase was worth it, then you go take a flying #$%&^% for yourself.

Dyrita Ellis, 31, who came to the scene with her teenage daughter and a cousin, said the five boys who died were a tight-knit group.

"We just saw them yesterday," she said. "They were happy and laughing. ... It looks like they were out having fun last night, just doing their Christmas holiday break."
