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 |

Agreed. Same as the Ft Hood shooting. When you have like 100 people who can identify the shooter instantly, stop wasting time and put them to death within the week.

I heard on the morning news that the shooter was dressed up as Batman.

Guess he was more of a Marvel guy, huh?
Seriously, though, what a tragic incidence. Despicable. Also, that article (the one in the click-through link, at least) is one of the most horrendously written things I've read in a long time. Is RT a news site for teenagers? "Packed with a lot of people"? "The Colorado city of Aurora in the Denver Suburbs"?

I don't care about him having a trial because it's fair or not fair for him. I just think these scumbags take the easy way out and kill themselves at the scene so they don't have to look anyone in the eye. I want to see them have to sit there and listen to what they did before they get executed.

This will likely mark the end of dressing up for movie showings.

Don't go to the movies often but when we do it's late at night and I'm always carrying. Might not have done any good in this case but if I was there I'd rather have a gun, don't want to go down for lack of shooting back.

Motive? Some men just want to watch the world burn.
