my best friend and i went to the WHCD, and we ended up leaving early because something felt off
it started the second we got there. every event we’ve ever been to, especially at this level, there are layers of security. bags checked, IDs checked, actual process
this time, nothing. we were just asked if we had tickets, said yes, and got waved through
no bag check. no real screening. no line. just thousands of people packed together, being pushed through the doors as fast as possible
it felt wrong immediately. like, viscerally wrong. my bestfriend literally turns to me and says “i think something is going to happen”
and then it did
this cannot happen. not here, not at something like this
praying for everyone, but there needs to be accountability because this should never happen again
