I said a few months ago I wasn't going to go opening week because of this. I'll go after the first of the year to a matinee so this won't be in my mind.

I'll be more shocked if something doesn't go down in the next few days at a screening

Yeah, someone who gets that most humans are stupid and will shoot at the first thing they might remotely conceive of as threatening when the shite hits the fan. If I was in a theater shooting and was armed, I'd sure as shite shoot the first person I saw with a gun just on instinct thinking he's the shooter. This isn't like someone holding up a gas station or a bank where it's pretty easy to play hero. Theater shootings are something really only the most highly trained officers and military professionals can effectively handle. It's the worst possible environment to be in, save for a musical theater when people are clearly going to be drunk, high, and tripping balls.

What do you do if he blows himself up?

Asking. Not being sarcastic


Definitely. Biggest box office release of all time, and they know there will be plenty of people who bring fake guns to the premiere. I don't think they'll penalize these people, they'll just confiscate them. If they didn't do this, it would be the easiest premiere in history to sneak in heavily armed. The cops will be up in arms over this one.

Masks and blasters and lightsabers are banned at every theater. The shitheads have won.

Interesting. Kinda glad to live in Nowhere, N LA in that case

Why bring fake guns though? I've never been to a theatre where people brought props. Reminds me of rocky horror picture show

What are you talking abou. Simple precautions aren't losing. The shite in Los Angelas yesterday was losing but this isn't.

On the basis of the logic you've demonstrated in these posts, it's safe to say you fall into the "most humans" category.

You will likely be dead by the time any of the above arrive so that's not much of a plan.

No dolt know your target take a shot are you are assuming every person is a horrible shot? You assume every cc person is gonna spray & pray? Let's try to get one idea in your head because you can't comprehend more than one at a time, A gun nut is the person that is shooting up the place not the cc person protecting themselves.

Truth of the matter is I don't give a frick about concealed carrying, but I do think highly crowded, dark, and loud areas are a very bad place for them, particularly when people will be drunk and high.


Sure, you don't have an agenda.

I see your hypothetical scenario continues to change though. Now everyone is high and drunk? You know that's a no no for CC, right?

I'm going to a private screening Saturday at a ridiculous time like 7am.

There will only be normal Catholic people there.
