   When the other driver survives and his name is omitted, you know   
   he's a drunk Mexican or black.  We can't afford to offend the   
   minorities with a racist president in office by pointing this   
   out.   
      
   TAMPA, FLA. –  Five people, including four fraternity brothers,   
   died in a fiery, head-on collision on a southwest Florida   
   highway early Sunday morning, according to Florida Highway   
   Patrol officials.   
      
   The driver of an SUV was heading south in the northbound lanes   
   of Interstate 275 in Tampa around 2 a.m. Sunday when the driver   
   collided head-on with the Hyundai Sonata carrying the fraternity   
   brothers. Authorities say the SUV burst into flames and the   
   driver died at the scene. FHP officials were struggling to   
   identify the male victim late Sunday because of extensive   
   injuries from the fire.   
      
   Sergeant Steve Gaskins said all four victims in the second car   
   also died at the scene. They were members of the University of   
   South Florida's fraternity Sigma Beta Rho. Authorities   
   identified the victims as: Jobin Joy Kuriakose, 21, Ankeet   
   Harshad Patel, 22, Imtiyaz "Jim" Ilias, 20 and Dammie Yesudhas,   
   21.   
      
   "Mere words cannot convey the depth of shock and sadness this   
   terrible event brings to all who knew and cherished these   
   wonderful young men," USF President Judy Genshaft said in a   
   statement.   
      
   The university's counseling center will be available to help   
   students' struggling with the loss. Sigma Beta Rho is planning   
   an on-campus memorial service later in the week. Details will be   
   available on the university's website, school officials said.   
      
   "Our hearts are heavy at the loss of such bright, energetic and   
   optimistic young people who had promising futures ahead of them;   
   to have their lives cut tragically short betrays our sense of   
   fairness and security," Genshaft said. "Now is the time when our   
   faith and the support of those closest to us can sustain us, and   
   should in tribute to their spirit of friendship and brotherhood."   
      
   Authorities said they are investigating whether drugs or alcohol   
   played a role in the crash.   
      
   The highway was closed for several hours following the crash and   
   re-opened around 7 a.m.
