All because of mace? Either we aren't getting the whole story or that club was full of a bunch of idiots.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Someone got a gun in there, or the place has some shady affiliations and some of the people there were supposed to be eliminated. There's no other reasons that I can think of besides mass incompetence for this happening.

[Guest DawnBTVS]

Or the guards used way too much peeper spray since it said most people were having trouble breathing....stupid guards.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

People have trouble breathing at such places a lot of the time anyway. The smoke machines really aren't that great, clubowners. GET RID OF THEM.

[Guest DrTom]

I'd hold the club owners resonsible for every death and injury, and charge them with that many counts of murder, assault and battery, negligence, and reckless endangerment. Fucking bastards.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

I think the clubowner/s will be charged with all of that anyway, as well as many other things eventually.

[Guest Vern Gagne]

The club wasn't supposed to be open. Reports I've heard say the owners will be charged.

[Guest NoCalMike]

the 2nd floor was not supposed to be opened. The emergency exits were locked, and people couldn't get out, so approx 1500 people running for the same exit all at once.

[Guest Some Guy]

The building was condemned by the city or something for having among other thing an inadequate stairway. Sad story.

 

I heard the list of names and a brief description of the 21 dead and there are roughly 7,000 motherless children right now. Including at least 2 young womenm who had 3 week year-old babies. Virtually the whole list of the women had multiple children and were very young, like a 25 year-old with 5 kids.

Um... unless those women had over 300 children each, I think you might have a couple too many zeroes there.

[Guest Some Guy]

OK, it was a slight exageration. In reality it's probably about 20-25 kids. I can't find the numbers, right now but if I do I'll post the real ones.

Man, I know some people that went that club before, they told me that the stairs were really high and steep and most people only know that entrance that everyone tried to get out. Security shouldn't used spray to break up the fight eventhough they say the girls did have box cutters on them. The 2nd floor was supposed to be closed since july, My thing is how the police or imspectors didn't know that E2 club was still open when they were advertised on radio stations, the club drew some big name rappers and athletes there and the police or imspectors still didn't know.

[Guest Some Guy]

Why was the club still open when they should have been shut down months ago? I think you and Jesse Jackson are misplacing the blame here. It is the club's fault that they had bad stairways, it is the club's fault that they remained open despite being shut down, it is the club's fault that they maced the whole crowd. The club is in the wrong here, stop trying to pass the blame onto the "man". It's silly.
