Because this is an isolated incident. I'm reading comments all over about how people are too scarred to go to the movies now. Yes, this situation is unfortunate, but go on living your lives. Don't let this asshole disrupt your life.

I mean yeah we all agree...but if someone doesn't want to go to the movie theatre because of this, that is perfectly okay.

This. How many people wouldn't go in the water after Jaws came out, and it was only a movie. Fear is a strong emotion, and people react to it in so many different ways.

This isn't France cancelling showings of the movie. It is Warner Brothers cancelling the red carpet premiere. Two completely different things.

Maybe she's not.

Yes

He posted those to reddit, so I'm guessing he wouldn't have done that if there was any threat of him dying haha

Holmes was a student at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Denver until last month, spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery said. She did not know when he started school or why he withdrew.

Obama had a press conference and wanted to let everyone know that he has kids that go to the movies just like the ones that were killed. He has ordered a full investigation by the federal government to make sure the person responsible for these crimes is caught and held accountable for his actions. The best part of his speech was when he was talking about the tragedy, people were yelling "4 more years", classiness at its best.

Hopefully they don't puss out and proceed to give this shooter a quick and painful death.

I read there was a 4 month old baby who had to go to the hospital because of the gas. Why was a baby in that theater?

Prolly 'cause mommy and/or daddy wanted to see the movie and couldn't get a sitter?

He left off the part where he mentioned there is a whole gaggle of secret service agents protecting them. Yea, just like those kids.
