The behavior by the event organizers and police in this article seems cold-hearted:

That is nothing short of disgusting. All persons involved in the mistreatment of this young lady should see jail time.

This is just nothing more than disturbing. The people involved should be ashamed of themselves.

What the hell is wrong with people, that is not how you handle a sudden seizure.

If the girl knew that stress would trigger a grand mal seizure, then she should have never attended this event. Her mother should have kept her at home, by any means possible.

But seriously, no one expects the worse to happen. And just because someone does have seizure problems - which can often be controlled by medication - doesn't mean that they should just stop enjoying life.

This is why it's best to leave the cops out of things as much as possible.
They would tase and/or arrest a deaf person for not following their verbal commands (resisting arrest) just because they can.
They would tase and/or arrest a blind person for bumping into them (assault on a law enforcement officer, of course) just because they can. .
They would tase and/or arrest a 90 year old alzheimer's victim for being confused (what the hell, try resisting arrest for starters and maybe throw in assault on a law enforcement officer just so see if they can make it stick) just because they can..

I don't think it's lack of training but the fact that you can only do so much to teach the retard-bully hybrids that so many cops are.

I mean look at some of those big dumb shaved head c#cksuckers out on regular patrol all dressed up in their SWAT costumes. You couldn’t penetrate their thick chrome dome heads with a .50 caliber S.L.A.P. round, let alone get a lesson of any detail through to them.

She can't live in a shell all her life and her mother can't keep her on a leash forever.

Amen to that Brother. While more training at least would help, you can't do anything about the jerk culture in most police forces. I am thankful that I live so far out in the boonies that these cops they send up here for their two year paid vacations don't know I exist. :lol:

The truth about concerts, is, a lot of times they suck. Sometimes, they don't, but it's the exception rather than the rule. When you get all those people in the area in front of the stage, you are pretty much taking a risk if you have any medical condition because these people will rush at the stage and push everyone against the barriers, crushing them in the process. If you have long hair, they will nearly scalp you. It really does suck. It's painful and stressful. I wouldn't advise anyone with a medical condition of any kind to be anywhere near that stage.

That being said, yeah the security were as*holes but that's the norm for cops and security at concerts. I saw one tackle this guy skipping through the aisle at Lollapalooza. All he was doing was skipping. Just having fun. BAM! as*hole security guards struck him down. Sometimes they are nice though, and not such jerks. Depends on who you go see.

The concert is actually a better experience the further away you are from that stage. Everyone is evil near it. People feel like they have to be close to that stage. The question is, why?

I won't go to concerts anymore 'cept for local bands. The bigtime one's are a waste of time and money IMO. They often dont even try to perform nearly as well on stage as when in the recording studio.
Not to mention having to park practically in the next zipcode then walk in, overcrowding, noisy, etc.
I'm only interested in a musician's or band's end product; thier music. I don't care to actually see them in concert. I honestly doubt I'd even walk across the street to meet any of them or get a autograph. I don't give a s**t about thier personal lives one bit, either.

I saw Joan Jett, she sounds really great live. I saw The Swarm right in front of the stage and was so glad I was far away from that mess!
Some of them do sound great live and concerts can be a good experience so long as you stay clear of The Swarm.

The only concert I'd even consider attending would be either a concert by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus (and yes, I still kicking myself for turning down the opportunity of singing with the Chicago Symphony Chorus when it still was under the direction of the late Margaret Hillis and the Orchestra under the direction of the late Sir Georg Solti) or the Lyric Opera of Chicago.

That's a totally different animal than what I think of when I think of concerts. There'd be a much more mature and civil audience with any kind of symphony orchestra/chorus.
