Is that the first floor and the rave was on the second floor? I can’t imagine there being enough room for people among all that clutter.

Your observations of the crowd are reasonably accurate.
The Daily Mail had excellent coverage this AM including excellent photos of all those missing.
They look like a diverse group of young people that need education and protection rather than indoctrination and agitation. Many wore graphic signs of rebellion, not unusual for youth, but rebellion must be met with education for the purpose of self protection and protection of others to mitigate the danger of plain old rebellion.

Fire and occupancy codes are Trump’s fault.

That is true. It is a tragedy, and it is obvious by the way the press conferences have been handled that they leaders of Oakland are afraid of the repercussions. They could not have jammed more government employees on camera if they tried. They will probably try to blame businessmen or landowners.

Fire and occupancy codes are Trumps fault.And a tool of Straight White Christian Male oppression, mistreatment, and impoverishment of minorities, gays, women and chillun.

It might but what it shows me is the kids are not very bright at choosing a “safe place”.
I don’t care for any of this. It was a party of drunk kids and some asshole lit it up.
Same thing happened in R.I. years ago.
Be careful who you know kids. Being cool doesn’t mean dying in a fire.

Possibly 40 dead is quite a story—that so far hasn’t got nearly the coverage of the TN fires.
To: Navy Patriot
The pics are interesting. No sprinklers shown. Hopefully the “talent” was not using pyrotechnics.

This was pretty nasty; at the pressers they were asking about investigations going on at the building before the fire.
The TN fires are horrible. My daughter just came back from a class she took on the NC side a few weeks ago. She’s heard from he friends down there that it’s just horrible.
I don’t know why they both can’t be big stories.

Very impressive. That sure does resemble John Kennedy right below the horn on the left between the two skulls.
