yeah I was floored by that as well. As if we didn't already know looks like this guy was a nutbar, so bad that his mom insta confirms it.

Anyone whose vote is swayed by my comment isn't thinking.

Very sad news
****in' Christ, how good is their eyesight that they can see bullets travelling at 1100 feet per second?

You mean comments from extreme partisan conservatives who listen to too much Rush Limbaugh?

Yeah, those exist everywhere, sadly.

How come these jerks choose a place like a midnight movie where they have expectations that not many people will be packing instead of a shooting range where a lot of folks are armed to the teeth? Certainly part of their selection in targets is that they will be killing defenseless people. I'd like to see one of these folks try it at a shooting range one time.

This! also, isnt CO a state where owning and carrying a gun as easy as going to their local wal mart passing a couple checks and picking one up? ccw sure did not deter the shooter.

You by think it might be some misplaced madness about the themes in dark knight? Like you dont think they were thinking "you shoot up one little cinema and everyone loses their minds!"

Re: 10 to 12 dead and 20 injured after men open dire during Batman premiere

Wait a minute.. I think I know who conservatives will tie this to:

The shooting happened in Aurora, CO, but there's another famous Aurora out there. One many of us remember from some time ago.

That Aurora is in Illinois, and it is the setting for a movie starring Michael Meyers. It is the Aurora from the movie Wayne's World.

And we all know what famous politician is, like the movie, from Chicago. Someone who has Chicago politics in his blood.

Yes, that's right. The shooter was clearly President Obama disguised as a white guy to make Mitt Romney look bad! What shameful politics, Mr. President!

How many more movie theaters will he shoot up to distract people from the issues of jobs and his failed health care overhaul that won't help small businesses?

Re: 10 to 12 dead and 20 injured after men open dire during Batman premiere

Woke up and saw this. Tragic.

A three month(or year I forget exactly) is dead +11 others, and I saw the ABC piece about this and apparently the guy used smoke bombs at the same time the movie had either smoke bombs or explosives going off.

Guy is ****ing insane, can't believe they took him alive too.
