This was just senseless...

Update: Some guy in a gas mask threw a gas canister inside the theater and then opened fire, he has been apprehended.

That is A LOOOOOOOOOOOOT of people injured and dead from one civilian shooting. How f*cking ridiculous is that. RIP for the victims and hope their families can ride it out. Really feel sorry for the people having their entire lives ruined by some random psycho.

Its obvious he chose to do this at the midnight release of the dark knight rises, where most people would be present. I just don't understand what kind of motive drove this crime... kids died for christ sake. I hate this world sometimes.

It really makes you think, the theater I went to was only 25 min away from the Aurora one.

Some people are just ****** up to do that kind of stuff.

Not the world, America. These things stopped happening in Australia since the Port Arthur massacre in 1996 when we introduced stict gun laws. But i'm not really in the mood for a debate on guns.

I agree with you, but I, too, wished to avoid the gun discussions that always follow these kinds of topoics around.

How about screw the second amendment, America? While you still have any citizens left alive.

What do you mean 'coming' to? Nearly 70 years ago one guy and his army killed 6 million people because of their religion.

Not really because of their religion but because of their perception throughout history and during WW1 and the dperession etc. But i get you point.

That's entirely my point, though. People have been killing each other over politics, money and religion for thousands of years but this kind of senseless violence between neighbors has been on the rise this last century or so.

I blame violent Video games. Desensitizing kids to violence and all that. Maybe he just hated Batman fanboys. Was a midnight screening i believe.

What are you feeling? Anything??

I'm still in shock.

Disbelief to be honest. I cannot fathom how someone could plan this entire thing out and carry through to kill and injure that many people who have done nothing wrong to him.

It reminds me of that movie Rampage, which is a very f'd up film

Perhaps because the Muslim terrorists usually make it clear the reason for their actions are religion...

The problem is a mixture of individualism and selfishness. Societies today glorify the individual and pretend people should just care for themselves and disregard everybody else. This is just the extreme consequence of such mentality. If we created societies where we taught people to care for each other and be empathic rather than competitive and selfish maybe this kind of things would happen less but our twisted mentality of how the world works makes it a twisted world with twisted people all over the place.

It's strange they took him into custody. It's rare for these things to end without the person fighting to the death or shooting themselves.

What scum. All these people wanted was good fun night out on the town and to see a good movie. I hope he rots in prison until he's killed or dies. My heart goes out to the families. It says on Yahoo that 50 were injured and 14 were killed. What was he using, an M-16 on fully auto? People in the adjacent theater were hit from bullets that went through the walls. Christ. Rest in peace guys.
