like the cop told me, "no matter if they are in the crosswalk or not, the ped's have the right of way".

The crowd had just watched a race speed off and walked out into the middle of the road with their backs to oncoming traffic. The driver of the car couldn't see them because of all the tire-smoke from the start of the race.
I'm not saying anyone "deserved to die", but claiming the driver was totally at fault or that the people killed were just innocents in the wrong place at the wrong time is just untrue. Those people put themselves in a risky situation and paid the ultimate price.
