Away from the olympic hosting utopia surounding us, i chose to somber things down abit abit.
I am caught between having to empathise/sympathise with one of the managers whove been charged by the gvt - whom i know through like two close degrees of separation(He's the brother to the friend of my brother) - and having my opinion on the whole incident persist.
Let the law decide his fate, meanwhile i will continue to beg to disagree with bankelele's take on the Carnivore case. (who ,I might add, is blogging up a storm and singlehandedly making we "team" bloggers look pretty bad)
I was quick to suggest litigation in my earlier posts , based upon accounts from kids who were at the event. I mean if a tent colapses(within the carnivore) , clearly adequate was not adequate enough. Keep in mind it could have been ALOT worse with the same set of conditions, mpaka i think they were lucky.
Harsh as it may sound..as the hosts of the event, they must bear the final brunt, even if it means serving as an example. The cops and any independent security should be handled kando. I do agree though that some sort of policy has to be in place to prevent the systemic causes of this tragedy from ever happening again. Somethings gotta give..
