Bands do not need pyrotechnics. That’s BS

This isn’t the first time a band has set off a fire where many people died. More than likely the exit doors were locked too.

In May of 1977, I babysat for my next door neighbors so they could go to the makeshift morgue to look for their relatives after the Beverly Hills Supper Club burned. I believe the death toll was 165.

The club was in northern Kentucky.

Wikipedia:

The Cocoanut Grove was Boston’s premier nightclub during the post-Prohibition 1930s and 1940s. On November 28, 1942, this club was the scene of the deadliest nightclub fire in US history, killing 492 people (which was 32 more than the building’s authorized capacity) and injuring hundreds more. It was also the second-worst single-building fire in American history; only the 1903 Iroquois Theatre fire in Chicago had a higher death toll, of 602.

Prayers for the victims and their families.

It's getting close to carnaval and the parties are ramping up big time right now. Let's hope they can step back and re-evaluate safety for the bigger parties that are about to take place everywhere at once.

High time to register and ban ‘assault fires’!

When will the insanity of allowing ‘assault fires’ end?

We get get ‘assault fires’ off the streets!

Enough is enough!

It’s for the children (pic of Obaba surrounded by cute kids with dum-dum bullets, assault machine gun armed DHS thugs in the background.
