'Dark Knight Rises' screening shooting in suburban Denver leaves 14 dead, 39 injured: police - NY Daily News

Fourteen people are dead and dozens are injured following a shooting at Friday night's midnight showing of the "The Dark Knight Rises" at a mall in Aurora, Colo., police told KUSA-Denver.

One suspect is in custody, police said.

"A lot of people thought the gunshots were part of the movie," Brenda Stuart, of 850 KOA radio in Colorado, told Britain's Sky News.

Swedish Medical Center of Englewood, Colo., was told to prepare for mass casualties, a hospital official told KUSA-Denver.

Eyewitnesses said the shooter may have been wearing a gas mask, Stuart told Sky News.

Hayden Miller told KUSA-TV told KUSA-TV that he was inside the theater and heard several shots. He told the station that at first he thought it was part of a louder movie next door. But then he saw "people hunched over leaving theater."

Aurora is located on the outskirts of Denver.

when you think of it, a theater is the easiest place to hit up, a dark place when the lights are off, only two exits for the most part, lax security, often times in the outskirts of the city, a bunch of people crowded in a tight place

This shyt just saddens me, as a human being.

Why do we do things like this, there cant be any reason other than hatred and anger or vanity. You don't know those people in the theater, why do this.

This shyt just really bothers me. fukk.

theres already a thread in the locker room

Not everywhere here goes into the Locker Room, plus even though the information is the same,

It will probably get dissected in a more civilized manner, rather a typical 50 messages about "f*ck Cacs & Muslims*



Funny thing is I was just watching the latest episode of "Through the Wormhole" and the episode was dedicated to understanding evil( Can We Eliminate Evil? ).

The first thing that popped through my mind, was what went through this guys mind when he decided to gun through with this heinous crime, besides being an out of the loop psychopath.

This Dark Knight Rampage, reminded me about this seemingly normal man, who had a wife, came from a suburban home, was a bank teller, was an engineering student, and had a strong support system of people who loved him, yet he went on an indiscriminate shooting rampage at UT Austin, in 1966. It later turned out, this guy had a large tumor about the size of a walnut, which was pressing on a region of the brain involved with fear and aggression....

Through the Wormhole S3E7 Can We Eliminate Evil? HQ - YouTube

Imagine if we had a system in place, to detect potential psychopathic behavior, before it ever turned deadly.....

It's ridiculous really. I haven't read up to much on it yet, but that Locker Room thread should have been in here anyway. I need to get the Higher Learning description edited. It should read something like the places for "Breaking News, Business, Education, Politics and Debate."

Right now it operates like a personal book club, I love you brehs, but it's like the same 15 people posting and that's why things get stale sometimes. Even if the debate here is more "civilized" (that varies) less people participate and I think other perspectives get lost in that. I would've gone about this sooner if I wasn't so busy right now.

I didn't know you can get into a movie theater with you backpack. If I knew that, I would sneak in all types of crazy stuff.
