Shooting at TDKR Midnight Premiere in Aurora, CO. Multiple dead.
At least 10 moviegoers were killed and 39 injured at a cinema in the Colorado city of Aurora in the Denver suburbs. They were attending a midnight showing of the new Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises.
The theater was packed with a lot of people, many of them young fans, at the time the shooting started, 9news reports. The violence erupted some 15 minutes after the movie started, witnesses said. Some say that when they first heard the shooting, they thought it was some new type of special effect. Local media reports that two gunmen were involved in the rampage. An explosive device was set off during the shooting, injuring several people. Witnesses said the gunmen were probably wearing body armor and gas masks and used some kind of a tear gas bomb in the attack. Some reports say police have apprehended one of the assailants while the second one is still at large. Police have cleared people from the scene over fears that another explosive device might be on the premises. Aurora medical services were alerted to attend to the large number of injured http://www.rt.com/news/shooting-dark...er-aurora-654/ WOW |

My brother lives in Denver. He's on the north side, 20+ miles from this with plenty of theaters nearer so I'm not to concerned with the possibility he was there. Pezman, a Bronco fan who used to post here a lot actually attended the movie last night but he selected a theater a couple miles from this one. I'm intrigued to discover motive here. Not that any reason is going to make sense but it is going to be interesting to find out more about the loon who did this.

In NC you cannot have a Concealed Carry at a place where admission is charged to get in, Don't know if it's similar there but 4 or 5 armed patrons could have possibly saved alot of lives and injuries...

Explosive device found in his apartment and is being evacuated. Don't know still about his car. He was dressed as a SWAT guy.

While we're talking hypotheticals, CC could killed more in the crossfire. And I heard the guy had a vest on so they better be good at head shots.

Nope. Any member here would tell you that they would have been cool, calm, collected, and a crack shot in this situation. They would have saved countless lives.

Hypotheticals aside, most of these cowardly pricks have a game plan and a vision in their head how they're going to rob or get famous. Some armed resistance throws a wrench in their plans and they flee.
Get on the floor and let the CCW'ers and bad guys shoot it out...or get on the floor and pray the cowards don't see you. It's your choice. (Assuming they were covering the exits) |
