BYERS, Colo. – Less than a month before carrying out the midnight movie massacre that left 12 dead, suspected shooter James Holmes applied for membership at a private gun range, unnerving the club’s owner whose calls to Holmes’ apartment reached a “creepy, weird” Batman-inspired voicemail message.

“His answering machine message was incoherent, just bizarre, really bizarre -- slurring words, but he didn’t sound drunk, just strange -- I could make out “James” somewhere in it,” Glenn Rotkovich, of the Lead Valley Range, in Byers, Colo., told

I spent a year working in the UK in the late eighties, and picked up a lot of British slang. After I came home in 1990, it took years and years for me to lose the habit of using those words.

I still pop out with the occasional ‘crikey’.

I think the action necessary is to ban Hollywood from inciting riot and yelling fire in a crowded theater , It is the left in Hollywood that warp the minds of our youth with evil and they do it for money

I’d be curious to know if James’ parents knew or anticipated that he would do something like this. Obviously, James is responsible but his mother knows her son was a powder keg. “Was your son an OWS black bloc groupie?” would be a good question to ask her.

***Obviously we need to ban comic books.****

Comic books ( movies, tv and army surplus rifles) were blamed for the two Kennedy shootings back in the 1960s.

Someone on the internet claimed to post some pages from a 1980s Batman comic in which a nut shoots up a movie theater.

How about we let him run airport security. Maybe then some of us could return to flying.

Ain't that the truth.

Just got back from a he!! trip.

Stuck in Charlotte, spent the night in the airport.
At midnight they came through and ran all us poor boobs out of the concourses, into the ticketing area.

Why you ask?

Per:TSA you have to be screened the same day you fly.
Midnight was rollover to next day.
Hundreds of people sleeping on the floor until TSA opened for business at 4:30 AM.

I've told everyone that I'm taking all my carry on luggage to Goodwill so I'll never be tempted to fly again.

I do. I also say Cheers and Regards or even Kind Regards. Depends on who I’m writing to and the occasion for writing.

I saw Prof Stanton Samenow on TV last night and he said this guy is most likely a criminal, sadistic sociopath, not schizophrenic.

That says it for me!

Samenow works at St Elizabeth’s (where Hinkcley was sent). I have seen Dr Samenow present in person..He has written the excellant book “The Criminal Mind”. he works with these types all the time and is well versed on this.

As a very astute movie audience member stated “let’s face it, there are a few Fruit Loops out their that are going to kill regardless of the means, bombs, guns, gas whatever. You’re not going to stop this kind of thing unless you completely control ever single member of society.”

With liberty and freedom comes a certain degree of risk. Personally I’ll take that risk, thank you.

That also struck me as very, very strange,” Rotkovich said. “Who says ‘Cheers?’”

English speakers. We find it less impertinant than "Have a nice day"

“Ciao Baby” probably wouldn’t go over too well either.

Half the pundits on FAUX News, including one female “Judge” have already convicted him of being evil. (I agree that what he did was evil.)

Sorry to hear about your misreable experience.

My line in the sand. Waiting to board flight in KC late at night with several others to return to Texas. Had already been groped once. Male Gestapo member of TSA said all of us had to be screened again because it was shift change time and there weren’t enough new people in line for them to complete their designated quota of complete searches at the beginning of each shift.

I completely lost it and didn’t care. Used to live in KC and have friends there that are attorneys. They left me until last and then waved me through saying it was because they had no female TSA agents available on that shift but they would make sure that I was screened at my destination before I was allowed to leave the boarding area. Once in the air, I talked with one of the flight attendants and the Captain and I was not rescreened in Houston but did walk out with them.

Neither I nor any member of my family will fly again until TSA is gone. If we can’t drive, we just won’t go. All of my business clients in other cities understand and are very supportive of my decision.
