    That police chief you can tell by his whole demeanor is hiding something and has the worst ego attitude I have ever seen in my life. Yesterday morning I saw a video of a woman being pulled out of the crowd unconscious thrown onto a stretcher and then dropped on her head directly onto the top of her head the sound was so awful it made me sick and you could hear it like you could just hear something happened. I kept thinking all day yesterday that girl just if she was alive before that that drop killed her it had two of. I didn't except to see that it made me jump and fill with anxiety .Now fast forward to yesterday evening I ended up coming across that tick tock video of a guy upset saying he literally just watched somebody die in front of him that night and he explained the same damn story! Of how a woman was pulled out unconscious having trouble breathing and they threw her on a stretcher and they dropped her and how horrific the drop was and passed.. Well now that I went back over the footage do you know who was carrying that woman on the stretcher? there were three to four Houston Police department officers that dropped that woman like that!! No wonder he won't let other help investigate, that man has alot to hide..I bet...I don't think it's on there anymore but I have it saved just in case that would happen..I can't believe no one else hasn't put this together yet so I think internal affairs need to go in and take a good look at that chief. I Think there's something going on I think that chief maybe had a little plan to make some money with Travis and it backfired on them and there's a lot of reasons why I think that I think they need to be removed from that investigation .in a normal crime you can't have people that are part of it investigating the crime. There's something about that Chief something about that man it does not feel right with me I'm telling you guys get that word out .. I think they maybe wanted this to look like people were going around injecting and forcing everyone to go crazy, there's a video stating with a volunteer there that somebody yelled before it started everybody call your family and friends were shutting down cell communications before it started and she was wondering what the hell that meant they were countless witnesses that said that they could not reach anyone the cell phones wouldn't go through I don't think anyone was meant to take video that night. He said he went to go speak to Travis before the concert but stating his safety concerns I want to know where that Chief was all night I think this was a money making scheme that backfired on them. Did you see that part where Travis Scott did stop and he went what the f*** is that and looked kind of disturbed for a second? I think Travis Scott was maybe not after all informed of how the severity was. And trust me that says a lot that I took my focus off Travis cuz I thought that screwball had this all planned out this whole time but until this * Chief came on TV and I saw the way he talked ,everything I think it's him. When he went to say in this conference that the guard was not pricked with drugs did you notice he went to say he was not pricked with.. and went to say something else and caught himself I want to know if you might have accidentally said something you're not supposed to say you might have just outed yourself... Also I'm trying not to forget everything sorry, there was a volunteer security woman that stated before the concert started somebody yelled backstage everybody call your family and friends were cutting cell communications she didn't understand what that meant and also stated they never got walkie talkies they only got handed phone numbers to call but they're on cell phones if they need backup or help. I mean this is insane if you truly sit down and go over all this it's as if no one was supposed to be able to take video of what truly was going to happen that night, there were countless witnesses and victims that said they could not get their phones to call their parents or call for help. Now all of these things that I noticed that I'm stating it's pretty much separate individual people I mean this is $200,000 people they're predicting or less probably I can't remember. And these are witnesses accounts of what happened that are matching up that were put out the same time it's not like you know some small high School or college sorority group where there's only 20 of them that need to get their story straight and lied about a story,get what I'm saying? I mean the witnesses accounts are all matching up....

    How is it, this many days later, the cameraman has not been publicly identified or interviewed?
    (I’ve heard he’s getting death threats, which makes no sense when nobody knows who he is. (I don’t condone death threats either way.) Just curious. This day and age, someone in his situation would be identified and publicly shamed within 24 hours. Not saying I condone that either. I’m just baffled that even in this interview,you would think the reporter would say that they’ve reached out to the cameraman (and said his name) for comment and at the time of airing hadn’t heard back, or something like that.

      @MissDerpina2606 2 роки тому

      Yeah, the crowd has a share of the blame. I don't know why the experts are claiming that 'it is human nature to go to the front stage' especially when I think about myself. I usually don't go to the front and prefer to stay in the back so I have difficulty agreeing to this.
      The stage was also set in such a way that you can see Travis from a screen if you are at the back. And in most cases, fans who want to be close would already take their spot in the front. The people in the back are usually happy at their spots. So everyone is different and has different preferences. However, in this case, there were people from the back who wanted to be in the front and they were forcing themselves in.
      What I learned is that there were two stages and when at around 8:45 pm, when the fans from another stage area learned that Travis would be performing in another stage, they left the area and rushed to where Travis would be performing. This is the main cause of the crowd surge. It is actually rare for the fans at the back to want to come in the front. So whatever the expert is saying is wrong. Because in usual cases, the people at the back prefer to stay at the back and won't move in the front. However, the people in the front would stay at the front and won't move from there and so this may be the reason why the compression happened.

    So sad, my thoughts are with the victims and families of. In hindsight, perhaps some education in advance of the show could’ve changed the outcome... Education for those throwing the event, managing, security and maybe even upon ticket purchase, for all concert goers, being required to watch an informational video like this before attending? Ideas. I can image the age range of the concert demographics to be on the younger side and not having much experience with being thrust into a horrific situation like this, and not having the experience or keys to knowing how to safely navigate it. Not blaming the audience or insinuating that common sense is missing nowadays, but hoping people learn from this tragedy, and encouraging them to their homework in advance, as knowing/ understanding the possible risks involved in participating in such events could save lives...

    2. If water is provided free of charge instead of 7 dollar a bottle
    3 if the organizers had stop the show when people asking for help instead of delaying for half an hour
    4 if the paramedics are present within the crowd with equipment for emergency situation where people needed aid for emergency situation like this instead of outside the Avenue
    5 if crowd have paid attention to those in time who have passed out instead of laughing it out loud without understanding the critical situation
