The article says they are looking into a murder-suicide as well.

On another note, Amy Winehouse was found dead this morning. No surprise there.

Unfortunately, you know as well as I do, no matter what the circumstances are, it will be "See... You let those dirty bikers gather and this happens." and it will be shut down for good.

It is unfortunate, but your comment has truth in it.

Incidents like this can (and do) happen anywhere, in any segment of society. They aren't random.

Sounds like someone lost control. Happens every day somewhere. To cancel the event does seem a bit extreme. It's not like there was rioting or a need for crowd control.

Sorry to hear about the deaths. Apparently, something personal was going on and somebody lost control.
