    You can find pocket ones for cheap that are easy to carry and could save a life

    I keep 2 cat tq in each of my vehicles and have spares that I can throw in a pocket

    Edit: this is not the only TQ on the market but this (IMO) is the best. There are smaller ones that are easier to carry and work just as well.

    So sad. I can't even begin to imagine what those people had to go through. Truly sickening that someone would do this. :(

    There is also several pictures of that man helping evacuate victims.

    Let's keep this respectful guys, we don't know who has been affected at this point.

    I can appreciate what you were trying to do, I usually try to counter troubling stuff w/ humor but it's a tad too soon for that.

    I can certainly appreciate that, but there may be people on here who have been seriously affected.

    My apologies. I see this stuff everyday in my profession and have a tendency to down play it with humor. Its a coping mechanism for many people in LE and the military. I forget that not everyone sees it like us. This was a horrible thing that happened and I apologize if I hurt anyone's feelings.

    I Just woke up right now and first thing I did was check the news for any updates, when I initially made this post the death toll was at 2...now I see it is at 50. Just can't believe it, praying for those of you who are still trying to get ahold of loved ones.

    Throwing some positive vibes your way, just heard back myself from some family members who were at the venue.

    Still contemplating what I would do in this scenario run or stay put. I think its a wise choice for everyone to become familiar with situational awareness courses.

    In this situation. Run and run smart. Don’t stampede (easier said that done I know).
    It’s an open space with NO cover. Get your ass out of there.
