a lot of people actually believe that shyt though.

just imagine how much safer the crowd would've been if they scattered say, a dozen armed citizens with had little to no training and suffered from the same initial confusion as everyone else across the darkened, tear-gas filled theater.

nothing bad could come out of that. :comeon:

:whoo:

I never even analyzed it like that

none of the civilians would've actually known who the shooter was

it would've just created a deadly heptagram with even more casualties from the innocent caught in the middle

didnt he tear gas the theater though, these people were getting blinded by tear gas and shot up at the same time by this demon

While trying to protect their kids and get them out of there, and like the report says 70 people were killed or injured in 90 seconds.

13 people shooting in a dark theater doesn't really seem preferable.

Also, smh @ this Mark Wahlberg-esque nonsense.

Seems better then ducking behind seats waiting to get shot. Guarateed if 2 people in the upper decks had guns, lives would have been saved by the sheer thought getting shot once cats start bussin back.

The theater banned guns regardless of laws in that city or state.

And how many of us are charging a fully armored maniac that we know has at least tear gas and guns?

didnt buddy have an AR tho? yall deluisional

Yeah he had an AR, a sawed off shotty, two other guns and was fully armored, had a riot helmet and a gasmask on and apparently had taken a bunch of Vicodin to calm himself an by all accounts showed no fear or anything like that, but if he saw a few people firing blindly into a darkened theater filled with tear gas he would've freaked out and ran away.

Also, the guys firing blindly into the darkened theater filled with tear gas would've known exactly who the attacker was and aimed at him, not one of the other 2-4 guys shooting.

And the hundred other people in the theater wouldn't have made it more difficult, bumping into anybody or anything like that.

And the cops come hearing reports of 4-5 guys firing shots in the darkened tear gas filled theater would have no problems knowing that only one guy was the attacker and the other 3-4 were just trying to keep things safe.

I was being sarcastic.

2-3 other people in there shooting would've made this event even more tragic.

In the Silver Lining
Those conceal carry permits are about to go through the roof in colorado. This wont be happening again.

But not at the theater or shopping centers where they have no fire arm policy???

Then again.....how does that work??? If a state/city/county has a concealed or open carry permit law/regulation, then can businesses prevent someone with that permit from entering the premises??????? Or does it just depend on the regulations/laws for that jurisdiction ???

Guns spark in the dark, there is no way around it...3-4 guys firing in his direction would have caused him a lot of difficulties.
