    Default Batman movie tragedy in Colorado

    http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/20/us/col...html?hpt=hp_t1

    Sadly it seems a gun man decided to show up and wounded as much as 50 people shooting them in the theater. He killed as many as 14 during this . What is wrong with people who took some peoples fun and decided to show up and hurt them ? Such a horrible tragedy to happen .

    The death count has been downgraded by the authorities to twelve, but numbers are expected to rise as more victims succumb to their injuries. The costumed madman was apparently well organized and slaughtered moviegoers indiscriminately. The search of his apartment has turned up what has been described by the police as "items of interest" though his motives remain unclear. It's a sad day.

    Unconfirmed report that someone in the theater received a phone call during the movie to open up the emergency exit that the gunman entered.

    Tragedy. I just hope it isn't revealed that he's some nut obsessed with the films. He was wearing a gas mask of some kind, maybe a Bane copycat?

    And yea there is a possibility that more people were involved in this. Shocking. Youngest victim was apparently 3 months old.

    Terribly sad news.

    Two witnesses from the theater said that one of the two tear gas canisters was thrown over their heads from the back rows while the gunman came into the theater from the front. More unconfirmed information at this time.

    For such a possibly volatile topic, I'd prefer to keep the discussion as localized as possible, so I'm closing the Comm Board discussion.
