Police are in the early stages of a criminal investigation after a crowd surge at Astroworld Festival on Friday left multiple dead and scores more injured

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said authorities were working to determine the circumstances behind the crush at the Astroworld Festival, and told CNN's Pamela Brown Sunday the city's thoughts are with those who were killed or injured."We are praying for their family members, there are still two individuals who are critical -- in critical condition in our hospitals -- so, we are praying for all of them," he said.

Lawsuit filed against Travis Scott, Live Nation and others following Astroworld Festival tragedy"Defendants failed to properly plan and conduct the concert in a safe manner. Instead, they consciously ignored the extreme risks of harm to concertgoers, and, in some cases actively encouraged and fomented dangerous behaviors," the lawsuit said.

Astroworld Festival Update: Houston Police Investigating Strange Reports Of Drug SpikingHouston Police say they are investigating reports that at least some of the deaths and injuries at the Astroworld incident on Friday may stem from drug injections. Chief of Police Troy Finner said … What the hell does people being trampled, suffocated, and then unable to be treated due to a lack of medical staff have to do with drug spiking? Journalistic malpractice running cover for the organizers, including the city. Likely a concocted story to hamper any real investigation. I read the 'tweets' and every one of them were from accounts that users hide behind.

Opinion | Voters Cancel the War on PoliceFrom WSJopinion: Data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations showed a historic spike in violent crime after last year’s political assault on police. Voters on Tuesday said they’ve had enough. opinion There is a spike in crime because we’ve been immersed in a pandemic not because of politics. WSJ is just pushing right wing divisive rhetoric as usual opinion Wow, who would have thought there would be consequences to weakening the police? This was so predictable by anyone with a brain. Don't get me wrong, they need reform, but forget this 'defund-the-police' nonsense. It's not going to work.

Do election failures mark the end for 'defund the police'?Minneapolis became the epicenter of the movement to transform policing after George Floyd's murder, but the city's voters just rejected a proposal to dismantle its police department. THE real question should be are cities,after all each city is independent. It's only rational for a city to have a strong, martially capable police force as the alternative is anarchy. But we need smart and humanitarian reforms to police are upholding actual Law and ethics; not the might makes right of each group of town fathers. That's also anarchy. The most common cause of death of young Blacks is automobile; second is suicide where drugs play a part; third is being shot by a Black man. There are more White men shot by police that Blacks, but the Black population is not aware of that. No realistic need to fear the police!
