    Caught that on the news this morning and reading accounts from others there. Feeling terribly sad today.

    That looked like hell on earth. It’s a shame that people begged for help and they couldn’t get it.

    I feel badly for the families and friends of the victims but mob behavior is dangerous.  It's like extreme mountain climbing.  If you engage in it, you have to expect  and accept that some people will die.  No thanks.
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    10 now, after a 9-year-old sitting on his father's shoulders fell - and got trampled - after his dad lost consciousness. Kinda hope someone goes to jail after reading the timeline on this thing and how mass casualties happened, with a show continuing to go on. This festival should have been shut down when the gates were stormed @ the beginning of the day.
