Police insist that a bleacher did not collapse. The disaster was caused as a result of a huge stampede caused by an unclear reason and people unfortunately trampled on each other, according to a police source.

You can literally see bodies beneath bleachers so there’s definitely collapsed bleachers somewhere in this story.. this is beyond heartbreaking. :'( :'(

If your dancing for the fun of it you might be right
But if it's celebrating the ohr of Reb Shimon I think it could be done in a serious manner
With some tehilim beforehand etc.

You can't expect everyone to be on the level of the .0001, that's why it should be cancelled. Doesn't matter if it's actually the .00001 that are there, it just isn't right.

I guess I took it  the wrong way. I thought he meant  cancel for the next bunch of years.

Most Lag B'aomer celebrations happen in E"Y at night anyhow so most of that stuff is over already...

I'm not saying you should or shouldn't, but I don't think a small backyard fire is the same as a major one.

there was no exit, even for those that wanted to leave, since mishtarah didn't let anyone in, it was what they call R"L a dead end, they took apart some bleachers to free up the space

Prayers for everyone in Meron and members here. If I learned one thing being here it is that you are all one family.
