No, not at all.
It's a YouTube documentary about what happened.
The channel is called "Fascinating Horror".
I honestly did not know much about the story until seeing this video.
Wasn't posting it as a troll or joke on Aggy. There are many other things I'd joke about regarding A&M, but this is not one of them.
Was just posting since it's a non-sports centric look at what happened and thought others might find it interesting.

Nothing trashy about what I said. In fact I said the same thing you did.

Let's talk whole story then.
You are an engineering school supposedly. ANY lack of oversight, planning, and design other than "just stack em up bigger than the year before. 'cause that's how we always have done it" is gross negligence at minimum. Doesn't matter if you have been lucky 99 out of 100 previous.
I agree whole heartedly that it was a terrible tragedy. Where we differ is that I believe your university is at fault.
I'm not gonna fight over who is responsible for the manslaughter.

Nice victim insertion in the absence of cause.

gfy. Posting that shortly before a conference championship game and cfp and other important football events just to stir disrespectful comments.

Show me where I said that.
I explicitly said the design and oversight were flawed, but I also qualified that by noting changes that led to that and when they occurred.
Not sure why you want to make this contentious when almost all agree that there were mistakes.

Stfu, the guy posted a video without disparaging in any manner. What's his track record? We all know the aggy track record for the "victim card" as you so kindly displayed.

My bosses daughter was a student there at the time. She thankfully, was not injured.

The channel published the video 14 hours ago and it came across my YouTube feed this afternoon. I posted it right after I saw it.
Plus what does conference championship week have to do with anything?
People who would make trolling comments would do so now or in the middle of April.

It’s sad because of the obvious, the loss of life’s there, but it was also the end of one of the Aggie traditions most people liked. That would have been badass to see in its non lethal prime.

That's just the name of the YouTube Channel: "Fascinating Horror"
I wasn't calling the event anything, just citing the name of the channel that produced it.

What the hell are you rambling about? ATM isn't playing for any championships or sniffing playoffs in anything other than perhaps Steer Judging.
It's a documentary about a tragic event. Are you aware of a genre that examines tragic events?

Yeah, this isn’t a joking matter. Tragedies seem to bring people together. I actually remember when this happened in high school. Pretty awful.
