Meanwhile, TMZ reported that a 'key person' connected to Astroworld said that Friday night was actually the result of a 'targeted attack' after 'someone in the crowd went crazy and began injecting people with some sort of drug, which caused panic and then a surge'. Cops said they're keeping an open mind, although Houston's fire chief says he thinks the tragedy was caused by a crush.

It was a concert you fricking moron. So everyone that attended should have known that they might get killed and that’s their fault? You are the epitome of trying too hard.

When’s the last time there was a mass casualty event at a concert that was not a shootout at a hood rat rap show in somewhere like Jackson or Memphis

In the late 80’s, a large number of people at a Guns N Roses show in England died in a stampede. This isn’t a racial thing. This is rowdy crowd thing.

In regards to this one thing (blaming Katrina for their crime issues), sweet reading comprehension

What kind of festival was this?

Another damning video came out. A man and woman climbed atop the camera platform and started screaming for help from the camera operator who told them to get lost.

What’s the issue? Do things happen at Neil Diamond concerts?
Posted on 11/6/21 at 5:33 pm to tgrbaitn08
These things happen everywhere.
They used to happen all the time in Europe at soccer matches until 94 people died on one where the goalie ordered the game to be stopped because he was standing next to thousands of people screaming for help.
They happen at religious festivals yearly.
I was in a celebration crowd in 2016 myself at a crush circumstances. I ended up being shoved up against a car for 20 minutes and I ended up shitting myself. Swore off all large none sporting gatherings after that.
It’s something I’ve been scared of for years

anything less effective at crowd control than horses?

I would storm the gates and trample some people if they brought back the real Astroworld and Waterworld from 1991.

The cops did exactly what they should have done at an event like that..., nothing.
The promoters knew what type of crowd they were catering to.
