WHY hasn't a race track been built if the culture is so strong?I know a few of you around the way remember this.

This is an example of how the whole West Indian Richmond Hill/Ozone Park Car culture is.
A lot of people crash (and die) on the Southern State Parkway. Everyone knows this. Especially West Indian people from Richmond Hill/Ozone Park, which has a strong race/car culture in the area. I know of at least 4 people, friend's of friends who have died on the Southern State because they want to race or go at incredible speeds very late at night and lose complete control of the car.
RIP.

Is this a joke? how can you possibly agree with what that man just said?No...for real?
You're either trolling, or have a very very very small mind. Choose wisely.
Peter Anthony, Chris Khan, Neil Rajaba and Darian Ramnarine — all of them 18, three of them popular graduates of Richmond Hill High School — were killed instantly and pronounced dead at the scene.
I mean RIP and everything, but who the hell wrote this ****? I mean......which dead kid you saying isn't the popular one?

Joseph Beer (credit: CBS 2)
MINEOLA, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — A Queens teenager accused of speeding when he crashed on Long Island and killed four friends was charged on Friday.
Joseph Beer, 17, was handcuffed and escorted to court six weeks after surrendering to police after crashing his car on the Southern State Parkway. He is charged with aggravated vehicular homicide.
Beer’s parents, Patricia and Aaditia, sobbed quietly on Friday, but said nothing. They, too, could face some jail time.
1010 WINS’ Juliet Papa Reports
The indictment was unsealed by a grand jury, charging that the Queens teenager was impaired by marijuana and took his friends on a high-speed Columbus Day joyride in his new, high-performance Subaru Impreza.
Beer climbed in behind the wheel illegally having only a learner’s permit and by the time he reached the curve at Exit 17, the accelerator was floored, allegedly reaching speeds of 110 mph.
It is alleged the sports coupe slammed into trees and split in half, ejecting all five teenagers. Beer’s four passengers were killed instantly.
Christopher Khan, Neal Rajaba, Darian Ramnarine, Peter Kanhai were all Queens, college-bound boyhood friends who knew each other from Richmond Hill High School.
Beer attended Vaughn College of Aeronautics near LaGuardia Airport.
“He is very, very distraught about the death of his four very close friends,” defense attorney Todd Greenberg said. “This is an accident. All accidents do not mean or result in criminal acts.”
The emotional funerals were heart wrenching for the close-knit communities. The young victims were bright, energetic and talented.
The district attorney asked for $500,000 bond, but the judge raised it to $2 million due to the seriousness of multiple felony charges.
“He was driving a souped-up 305-horsepower sports car at more than twice the legal speed limit while he was high on marijuana,” Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice said.
And now, Rice said Beer’s parents face criminal accountability, possibly 15 days in jail and a fine of $150, for knowingly allowing their son to drive without a license.
Beer’s attorney requested his client be placed in the jail’s protective custody wing and receive a medical evaluation.

Seriously. How will him being in jail help? Dude lost his friends and then you put him in jail and you basically take away his future.this is the ******g problem with our culture.
what do we gain from throwing this kid in jail for years??
you think losing his 4 friends wasn't enough. haven't this **** on his conscience.
he's 17 years old. an idiot with a lot of maturing to do. am i angry at him, hell yeah. do i think he deserves jail time, hell yeah.
but it seems we just want to toss people and forget them, why not educate others. you're not scaring anyone with this jail sentence because in the head of every other teen doing this same stupid **** "it wont happen to me"
I agree with that. 17 years old, he's gonna end up spending the start of his adult life in jail. Jail is not gonna rehabilitate him it's gonna end up turning him into a career criminal. He does need to be penalized but charging him with homicide isn't the way to go.Seriously. How will him being in jail help? Dude lost his friends and then you put him in jail and you basically take away his future.
if he was black i bet y'all would say he deserves to go to jail for a long time tho...............
Shut your dumb *** up.
Anyways, could someone explain why theyre called west indians and not east? I always thought west indians were from the Caribbean.
if he was black i bet y'all would say he deserves to go to jail for a long time tho...............
So that's why your dumb *** wishes incarceration on him?
of all things, JUSTICE is the problem with our culture??this is the ******g problem with our culture.

shut up and get some tissue for your tears. this kid is a murderer point black.
No, by definition, he's not a murderer. However, his negligence caused multiple deaths, which is considered manslaughter - which does deserve jail time.

Agree with this.No, by definition, he's not a murderer. However, his negligence caused multiple deaths, which is considered manslaughter - which does deserve jail time.
Don't bring that race crap in here brah.
we're only a couple shades off from black ourselves. I got cousins that are probably blacker than you.
Anywho....does this kid deserve jail time? Yes imho....I don't know how long the jail sentence he will be serving will be but this was just pure negligence and I'm surprised he was only caught with mj in the system. In our culture we drink hard and I really thought it was alcohol in the system which it usually is.
The reason i'm saying he deserves some type of penalty is to serve as a reminder to the rest of the youth in Queens. If they had just given him a slap on the wrist their would be no way parents would use this as an example to reinforce to their children to use caution when driving and just basically stop showing off.
West Indian culture is a very showy imho. I love my culture but we can be so smart until we become over-smart and thats when we shoot ourselves in the foot.
I'm sad about this whole situation....all guys were college bound and probably intelligent in school but all that flies out the window when you don't have common sense and know your limits.
I feel bad for this kid but I feel their needs to be one or two big situations to happen for it to be felt by the community.
In the south ozone/richmond hill area there is a stop light every 1-2 blocks on the avenues just because of the speeding that takes place. It wasn't even like this in the 90's.
