First off I will state I feel horrible for everyone involved teens/family/CPS/EMS/CFD/COP. The families going through this loss, i can't even imagine. The first responders having to deal with the situation sucks, and COP, god knows because of this security and many other things will have to change because of this senselessness.
It's needless loss of life, but I do hate the kids being kids excuse though. Had these teens been drunk driving we would look at this with venom because even teens should know better than to drink and drive, or at least they should. How is going down an olympic track on a sled, in the dark, without any safety equipment even a thought that passes through someones head as a good idea, is hard for me to fathom.
Part of me hopes that this was caused by drunken stupidness, because if these kids did this sober, just wow!
