As a 4 decade ticket scalper it seems like every African American festival had a group of African Americans that would rush barriers and attempt a breach, crowd surges can be scary, i was pressed up against a box office window by a crowd surge of about 30 at the 2002 world series, not a good feeling.
My only mob experience was many years ago when someone shot a gun on the top floor of the grandstand at Sportsman's Park in suburban Chicago.
I heard the gunshot and then I saw people running in one direction.
I ran in the same direction.
Nothing came of it.
I was at the Stardust on the day when a disgruntled bettor pulled a gun and killed a fellow bettor in the front row of the race book.
The man who was shot ran out of the book and died by the pay phones outside the sports book.
The shooter placed the gun on the sports book counter (my ex-girlfriend secured the gun) and declared, "I'm done now."
Yikes!
You can never be too safe and you always need a plan to escape any dangerous situation.
Tricky balance between staying calm and freezing in the moment.
You want to stay calm and act swiftly.

I read somewhere that short people were disadvantaged at the concert, saying they had a harder time breathing than taller people.
Another reason I wish I were 6-4 or 6-5.

This dirtbag needs to be prosecuted. But Houston is a blue shithole with a George Soros funded prosecutor that wont prosecute Black people. Its amazing that liberal jews are fans of George Soros considering he was a holocaust snitch. But they are more loyal to the gloabilst govt cult than God.

In the words of one Von Hilda Clinton, does it really matter.
I learned that lesson in Driver's Education at age 15.

Videos of the incident showed Scott's concert continuing despite the crowd pleading for him to stop the show, with Scott observing that audience members had been hurt, telling security to "help, jump in real quick, keep going" and then proceeding to perform the rest of the show as planned for the following hour.[129] In the aftermath of the crush, Scott's history of disregard for audience safety was highlighted by news outlets, with statements from a fan who had been paralyzed at his performance during a 2017 show being featured in Rolling Stone,[130] The New York Times making note of his 2015 guilty plea for reckless endangerment after he encouraged fans to climb security barricades,[131] and safety expert analysis arguing that the deaths were preventable being reported on in the Los Angeles Times.[132] Shortly after, a lawsuit was announced by the concertgoers, started by Kristian Paredes, who filed for US$1,000,000 due to the injuries he received.[133]

Hundreds dead? Railbird News Network may be as off base as some of the mainstream media.

There will be no one spared with the lawsuits. Scott. Drake, security. Nergy Stadium, the Houston Texans and Live Nation all getting ready to get tire ironed.
If you listen to fools, the Mob Rules.
