*DEVELOPING*CO Shooting at Movie Theater #1

[Ladylub]

Unless this is giving details as to how to disarm these apartment bombs he in NOT co operating.

Not sure if I would trust him to tell them how to disarm the bombs. I know even after they clear it out I would still be afraid to go back in that area fearing there was one they missed. Yes I know I'm a bit paranoid. LOL

He hoped he was going to get away and not caught, didn't he?

i was woken up around 4-5 this morning by someone stationed at Buckley AFB (blocks away) that 4 members of the military did not respond to a recall call....they were considered "missing".....and now believed to be among the injured or dead (i havent gotten an update....been taking calls left and right over this since before the sun came up because i live near to aurora.....and im tired!

Yes for sure, very tough, I am not trying to sound like some yahoo hero or anything, it is tough someone someone just starts spraying bullets like that in to a crowd. I didnt know he had armor on, I guess he was serious.

as you know (thanks to me) colorado is a CCW state.....you can conceal a weapon on your person or vehicle....HOWEVER, from what ive been told this theater chain does NOT allow people to carry weapons onto their property.

thus the reason nobody took <modsnip> out!

On mercy! How sad. I truly hope that his son is found safe.

Surely the hospitals would tell the father if he called or went there that either yes he is there or no he is not there.

There was an article yesterday that Rotten Tomatoes was suspending reviews for the movie - first time ever such a suspension made - due to the amount of death threats the movie was receiving. Was expected to be a short suspension. I did not read the article. Only the headline. It was lengthy though.

I dont know anything about these batman movies, I prefer the comics myself, so why the death threats. Whats the deal with that?

 

[EXIA15145]

I feel so bad for you, I wish I could give you a hug.
God bless you.

I will. This is just so surreal.

Just recently came out he is in critical condition. Sometimes it takes a bit to identify people. His father was on the news earlier and he hadn't heard from him :/

Many witnesses have said exactly that. The smoke started first and they thought it was part of the show. Then when the gunfire started it was at a gunfight scene and many people didn't know there were actual shots being fired inside until people who were shot started getting up and shouting.

Wow did they really, I honestly did not know that, I have been watching the British Open and missed most of the coverage, I probably would have thought the same thing for a few seconds at least.

Thank goodness he was found, I couldn't even imagine how his father/family was feeling. At least now they can be with him at the hospital.

Hopefully they are able to search the apartment and the bombs dont off.

The threats were being made towards the reviewers who didn't like the movie, made by people who hadn't seen it, themselves, yet.

This movie obviously struck a real chord with people, like nothing before.

Local here (been to that movie theater lots of times). Been texting friends left and right haven't heard back from any of them.

I read the whole thread but may have missed it. Have you been able to talk to any of your friends?

Yeah scary

Wow, just got a FB message from my mom. My aunt spent the night in Aurora, right near the theater, while on travel. She lives in MN. I would have never thought that she would be near there.
