Audacious : With an audacious disregard for innocent bystanders, the police opened fire at the criminals.
Answer: D
Here audacious is closest to defiant.
Audacious means boldly daring, often recklessly so, with a disregard for rules or risks. 'An audacious disregard for innocent bystanders' describes the police acting with bold, defiant contempt for the danger to others.
'Foolish' captures the poor judgement but not the boldness the word stresses. 'Useless' is unrelated, and 'necessary' would justify the act, which is the opposite of the critical tone of the sentence.
