50,000 there
Day 2 Cancelled by Police. Rapper Travis [8 people have died and scores of people have been hurt after a crowd surge on the opening night of a music festival in Houston, Texas. Panic broke out after the crowd began to press towards the front of the stage at Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival, emergency officials said. Eleven people were taken to hospitals in cardiac arrest and eight died. Some 300 people were treated for injuries such as cuts and bruises at the event, attended by 50,000 people. Local politician Lina Hidalgo, county judge of Harris County, described what had happened as an "extremely tragic night". "Our hearts are broken," she said. "People go to these events looking for a good time, a chance to unwind, to make memories - it's not the kind of event you go to where you expect to find out about fatalities."] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-59188960 Last edited by arista; 12-11-2021 at 09:54 AM. |

In this day and age that a 50,000 crowd could surge forward like that is inexplicable

It's always good to know the character of the person at his concerts when you're looking to find out what went on. I can show you videos of him being an uncaring arsehole from last night if you like?

Travis Scott concert: Child, 14, among eight killed
after crowd surge - as police reveal security officer 'injected in neck' [A 14-year-old child was among eight people killed following a crowd surge during a performance by rapper Travis Scott. A 16-year-old also died in the disaster at Astroworld Festival in Houston, Texas, on Friday, the city's mayor Sylvester Turner said. The mayor told a news conference on Saturday there were "a lot of unanswered questions" about the cause of the tragedy. A criminal investigation is now under way. However, police confirmed an incident at the event where a security officer was left unconscious after apparently being injected in the neck by a concert-goer.] https://news.sky.com/story/child-14-...ncert-12462464 |

Lots of people are calling for his arrest and for him to be charged. Step out of your echo chamber once in a while and you might just see a different opinion or two on things. |

If I knew facts, I wouldn't be on this forum, I'm a person chatting on a forum. It's what people do, they speculate on things.

I assume you was wrong in saying that 2 jabs would buy back our freedom from Covid. How's that one going? |

There's gonna be an investigation to this story, but you believe that you already have the facts. Where as I am putting things out there so that we can do our own investigations.
Why would I trust anything the media says when they have a past of being untruthful and have been proven to cover up child grooming and rape. They're not my kind of people. Last edited by Alf; 07-11-2021 at 08:56 AM. |
