Nightclub Melee or What Is Wrong With Society?!?
"I'm in my 2nd trimester.... it must be time to hit the dance clubs!!!
Ok... am I the only one who is shocked about this tragedy at the Chicago club for the reason that there were several pregnant women injured in the melee? I mean, just what the hell were pregnant women doing there? Is it old fashioned for me to think that it was completely irresponsible for them to be out in a dance club at 3am? I mean... I don't like the idea that anyone was injured and I think that the club owners are horrible... but... those pregnant women should have been at home!!! Just my 2 cents...
UPDATE: So, I had a conversation regarding pregnant women at nightclubs with some of my co-workers. One of them, who assumed the "devil's advocate" role, said that it might depend on how pregnant she was. Heck, she might not have been drinking at all. My response was that although I think people have the right to do whatever they want, I though it was irresponsible for ANY pregnant women to be selfishly concerned with going to a club that is notorious for being overcrowded. And it's 3 in the morning, for crying out loud! Anyway, I did some more research and although I wasn't able to nail down how "pregnant" any of these women were, I did find one eyewitness quote:
"You could see a mound of people," said Cory Thomas, 33, who went to the club to pick up two friends. "People were stacking on top of each other, screaming and gagging, I guess from the pepper spray. The door got blocked because there were too many people stacked up against it."Now, I'm no "Encyclopedia Brown", but unless he knew that woman, she must have shown some real signs of being pregnant. Or she had a horrendous beer gut. In any case, I think it's fair to say that she was well on her way.
"I saw them taking out a pregnant woman," Thomas said. "She was in bad shape. I saw at least 10 lifeless bodies."
