The Daily Mail's current headline says there are up to 40 dead. How awful.

Who needs sprinklers, smoke alarms, or other fire safety provisions? That’s bourgeois. Burning man, literally? (I do feel sorry for them though. I would not personally wish it on them.)

Intrusive, expensive government regulations have no place in a free nation.

Horrible! There was probably also a lot of accelerant type of material used by artists (turps and other solvents, paints, etc).

No sprinklers. No smoke alarms. A makeshift stairwell. Clutter everywhere. Young pajama snowflakes taking drugs. What could go wrong?

Oakland is Liberals Heaven, nothing can go wrong.

Saw the news conference by a spokesman for that County’s law enforcement office.
They said 9 are definitely deceased but they are prepared for a “mass casualty” event - with the possibility of 25 or more additional dead. They are having the fire department stabilizer the building before they can get in and get a definite count of those who died. They also set up a hotline phone number so people who want to know about their relatives or friends can call in and find out anything they know so far.
However many it was, this is tragic to the nth degree.

Sure looks that way, doesn't it? I envision the scene looked a lot like this before things started to go bad at Mos Eisley:

My guess: Old warehouse. Probably never upgraded the old wiring, and had an overloaded electrical system.
My second guess freebasing drugs.

Hopefully, they can have another illegal rave to honor this one.
Get on dosing and dancing!

A sad event. Prayers for all involved no matter what caused this tragic event.

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.

This is a big deal. Is this being reported elsewhere?

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

Sad. I have some speculation about these types of events, but I’ll keep them to myself. Lost and troubled souls.
