The most probable explanation is that there was a threat phoned into the theater.

And the most probable perp would be.. ?

Sounds like people should stay away from this movie. Either the cops are gonna hassle you or there is a planned terrorist attack.

Stay home. It’ll be out on DVD soon.

I am old enough to remember Al Capp’s SWINE (Students Wildly Indignant [about] Nearly Everything). While not students, this female probably has all of the other characteristics!

Great!
It'll safe and private to ignore it then.
Once the Oprah groupies and the SEIU members ordered to go see it have showed up, attendance will nosedive big time!

I think I’d need some Purple Drank to sit through that piece of science-fiction.

They probably had two ideas in mind:

1) Since the movie was tangentially related to Ronald Reagan, that ubiquitous, according to the DHS, “violent right wing extremists” would be in attendance.

2) Then, since black people were looking at a movie tangentially related to Ronald Reagan, that there was a slim possibility that they might be black conservatives, and thus a direct threat of violence, anarchy and “uppetyism” against the administration.

Lots of movies have cops visit. Cops see movie for free, Theater owner gets less vandalism. Same reason why Circle K gives cops free coffee. Bet she hates that too.

Wait? Somebody is made because they were SAFE at the theater?

What the hell is wrong with these people?

BTW, when I learned that Jane Fonda was playing Nancy Reagan I decided I would save my money and wait to watch it on the teevee . . . maybe . . . .

I predict there won’t be riots if it doesn’t get a nomination.

I saw it. I also predict it won’t get a nomination.

"Do I really have to put a sarcasm tag on everything?"

Rhetorical question? Of all the myriad ways the country has changed distinctly and inarguably for the worse since Brokeback "Dingle-Barry" O'Bunghole took office, one of the least affected places has been here on FreeRepublic.

Our hard conservative center has spared us most os the deterioration, but not all...

Don't forget how to laugh, and you'll be just fine.

;^)

Just tell her George Zimmerman was spotted in the area and she’ll stiffel herself.

It will get a nomination whether it deserves it or not.
