always better to be aware of certain situations than not at all. in this instance even more so. could happen anywhere, anytime. so if people know the dangers of it then maybe they will be a little more careful and responsible for each other when they head out.

there's a difference between being aware of a situation and being exposed to it via video. It's like the video of Saddam getting hung.
Yes, reading about the event in the paper or hearing it on the news has significance but some people are so fucked up they need to see it on video. Some even get kicks out of it (as well as sharing it with others).
The problem here was clearly in the organistion. No weapon check at entry - come on, any promoter or venue with half a brain would know by now what is necessary.

So fucked up on so many levels. I hate it when there's even a fight at a club I'm at, can't imagine how fucking awful you'd feel after being in the middle of partying then having to see that happen.

Man imagine how Cox feels about something like that. Or worse...imagine if something like that happened while you were playing. How would you feel?

Something like that would never leave you..
I remember a few of my mates were at HK when there was two (or three) people shot out the front in a drive by (back in 2002 i think), that really shook them up something chronic.
People should be aware of the dangers even without watching a stupid youtube video
Whether you are at dance party or walking down the street there is always a danger.
Very sad indeed

“I am deeply shocked and still stunned by the events of Saturday [3rd November]. My condolences go out to victims that were caught up in the horrific act that took place at this gig. I am informed that it was gang related, and feel so sad that anybody would act in such a manner when the event was full of 7000 people having fun. I find it such a sad moment in electronic music as this was probably one of the best set up shows I had played in South America – a sign of real progress…yet utterly hijacked by this mindless act. Again, my heart goes out to those that have died or been injured. This is NOT what the dance scene is about and is a million miles away from what I want to do, or promote.”
Coxy.
