Freedom of choice is absolute only if you have it. If you don't then your statement would be correct.

I am sure the organizers will learn from this horrible accident and find a way to continue this kind of Air races with more safety for the people which come to such events.

What was the reason for the accident is right now mere speculation, i'm sure there will be an proper investigation and until the results are officially published, we should think about those who had been killed and their beloved ones who right now are mourning about the death of an Husband, Girlfriend, Son or Daughter.
If you really cared about the people you would be in favor of ending air racing. Or you have absolutely no idea how dangerous it is.

No, it isn't absolute. Absolute freedom of choice is anarchy. If that's what you want you should move to Somalia.

First of all i'm german, why should i give anykind of advise to the American people what the should do? I think they can decide pretty good for them self.
If they want to go there, its their right to go there, as Hunden said it's Freedom of choice. And he's dam right about it.

Myself i wouldn't go there, because i am not interested in this kind of racing sport. That also is a form of Freedom of choice.

What you want is taking grown people and treat them like childs, i am strictly against such methods. People should decide by them selves if they wanna go to an event of any kind of entertainment, it's not the Job of the Government to decide this for the people!

Common sense has nothing to do with air racing.

great, nobody will argue the USA were instrumental in the outcome of the war.....it's just a shame the Germans didn't pay more attention the first time they handed your asses to you in WWI.
