This just proves that we do not live in a free society. The crooked courts and lawmakers control we do. I agree that street racing is dangerous, and yes that many people have been killed but how many have been killed in day-to-day accidents? This is a publicity stunt that goes way beyond punishment. I hope there is a loop-hole that allows the carwners to sue the city for 1000 times their cars worth.
Is the city going to start cutting off limbs for stealing? When will it stop? When we have no right at all!! This is politics at it worst and anyone who agrees with this is uneducated and short sighted.
