I still do not like it, but that is no reason why I should not see the tragedy here, even if you always have to take into account the effects of mass panics when you go to a place with hundreds of thousands of people in the audience - in this case, the outcome was not just becasue an inherent risk that can only be minimised but cannot completely be avoided, but it was
provoked by the organisers.
I also oppose the dirty comments that were quoted in the other thread, and that you can find in the internet about pigs and homosexuals finding their well-deserved end. The Love Parade is a rave party, not the Christopher Street Day. And concerning the latter, I still wpould not will, or even wish them death and panic. Just that they would stop to provoke with their freaky behavior that is a disgrace to their cause and an offence to many homosexuals who dispise the CSD right for what it is: a parade of idiotic, provokating freaks who think they are the navel of the universe and must violate cultural taboos in our society, no matter the cost.
