One thing that bothers me is how many people you could see still filming this after it happened. So many people with the cell phones and cameras taking pictures.....its disrespectful to say the least. I know if one of my family members died in a situation like that I would not want it seen by anyone on the internet.

Judging by how slow people cleared out during the first 2 or so minutes of the video, I wonder whether many of them even knew what happened. Gunshots can easily sound like fireworks or firecrackers. The people lying in the foreground of the video appeared injured, but not lifeless. It's only after the 2 min point and everyone flees that there appears to be a fatality (white shirt guy in the middle of the dancefloor)
There is still a second video up, but not as graphic.

This is a horrible thing to hear about and witness. People just can't go out and have a good time anymore, they gotta worry about this shit. I know the security at GUV is very strict but at least I feel safe there. Can't stand these gang bangers.

totally, the first clip actually sounds more like firecrackers than a gun.
Do handguns even fire that fast? What kind of gun was it?

I'm guessing there were more than one shooter if it was in fact gang related, as some are speculating.
no wonder the entire cru got capped there seems like it, and they probably all knew eachother ...fuckin chicos

I wouldn't if I were him.
Think about the complications it would cause for all of the clubs/promoters who booked him, and how insane it would be to re-book with his hectic schedule. I think he was right for posting his condolences, and I'm sure at this point house music seems a lot less of a priority in life - but it IS his job, and he has contracts to fulfill.

Well sure, but at some point you still have to acknowledge that your "job" is playing beats to people who want to party. It's not like he's a medic in World War 2 who just lost his best friend to sniper fire. lol
I kind of lean towards him continuing on with the gigs but not because of administrative commitments but more because otherwise you'd be letting a bunch of assholes ruin the good time/ momentum of something (overall) good to society. Uh, blah I'm all over the place today.
