Actor and car enthusiast, Huntington Beach local Deis in car crash today

Every time there is a thread like this, some get all upset with people saying "they deserved" to die. Maybe someone did specifically say that, I'm not going to go back and look, but the point is that they made a CHOICE, one that brought with it higher risk, and they suffered those consequences.

It's not about "deserving" anything, it's about making a choice and accepting responsibility for the consequences, up to and including death in this case. It's about a "victim" mentality where everything that someone does is "okay" and "poor them" vs. accepting accountability for one's actions.

It's a shame and tragic, and sad, and all that, but they chose to do something that had increased risk, and lost. Their own choice. Fortunately they didn't take out anyone else with them.
