'Attack' at midwest furfest?! WTF?!
11 years ago
Just minding my own business scanning over my facebook and the random posts that pop up from friends of friends. there are a couple people on my lists who are family of close friends. I don't talk to these people and i think for the most part only have them on my facebook cause i used to play FarmVille and what not.
But tonight as i'm scrolling down past bad pictures of Minecraft, preachy femanist propaganda, and tasteless dirty jokes one of these people posted a link to a news article about some 'Chemical' attack at the Midwest Furfest con. I did a separate search and it seems that yes! someone released chlorine into one of the stair wells O_O the whole place had to be evacuated! and some even went to the hospital! :(
I know several artists i watch here were supposed to be at the Con and i'm mostly just hoping that everyone is safe and that HOPEFULLY they catch the person who did it O_O

Waiting to hear back from one of my Furbuds that I worked FWA with and who taught me a lot about AV Tech, hoping I hear from him soon, he said he was going and suiting MFF this year rather then working it.

It doesn't sound like anyone what HURT other than a few people being nauseous and dizzy from the chlorine stuff.. and the building was cleared and deemed safe to reenter after only a few hours.

Yeah that is my hope that he wasn't being Ex Military I know what that stuff can do, a few went to the hospital but as long as they didn't get a whole lot in their lungs they will be ok, might have the coughs for a while but nothing to major thankfully, just still going to worry till I hear from him.

We were here. It was scary, to say the least. They're still investigating further.
