Simultaneous acts of violence with the same M.O. against the same type of victim is not a random act of violence. It is coordinated terrorism and/or a hate crime. The most likely people to commit such a coordinated attack are white supremacists who may or may not have been emblazoned with Nazi tattoos. As others have stated, it isn't a big leap to assume that the Nazi tattooed nitrous dealers are connected to the white supremacist hate criminals. If you can't see how I can follow their command and control structure upwards through law enforcement to the upper levels of our government, no amount of pointing at it is going to illuminate the situation for you.

The events that surround the music are just as important to me as the music. The music was great, the bulk of the interpersonal encounters I had with other fans at the show was great, the scenery was great, the lights were great. But honestly, aren't they always fucking great? I like to focus my recaps on the stuff that is out of the ordinary. People getting bashed in the head with rocks is not normal. But I guess it is slowly becoming the new normal. The person most responsible for the changing dynamic in our society toward madness, atrocity, and blind rage is your dear leader.
