Reminds one of that Rhode Island nightclub fire in 2003 - 100 dead. I care not what their political or social affiliation is/was, nobody deserves to be burned alive at a party.

My feelings too. Regardless of who they were or the circumstances, this was a horrible thing.

What a horrible tragedy.
Nobody goes to a club / dancing expecting to die in an inferno.
Such terrible news to learn. :-(

Thank you. I was at Sun Valley mall in Concord in 1985 when the plane crashed, I was literally 5 feet from the fire when it happened. That night I was 15 and I saw a woman burned so bad to almost the bone, all I remember is her eyes looking at me and in those eyes was a dying woman. I smell it sometimes at the airport with the fumes of the fuel, I smell it when chicken is barbecuing, it is a thing that never leaves you.
I don’t care who they were, prayers to them.

Yes, just awful. And the infamous Cocoanut Grove fire in Boston decades ago. Here is the wiki link

According to that piece “492 people [were killed] (which was 32 more than the building’s authorized capacity)”
