A Harvard researcher was brutally attacked by a gang of teenagers at a Boston movie theater after he told them to be quiet during a screening.

Thiago Rentz, 35, was seeing a late-night showing of the new horror film Weapons at the AMC Boston Common 19 last week when things got frightening off-screen.

A group of five teens in the theater loudly clapped and screamed throughout the screening, ruining the experience for everyone, Rentz said.

He should pay them for helping him with his field work.

I live in Memphis. I stopped going to movie theater venues in 2012. I'm not stupid.

I apply the Amish society rule, to shun the community members I am forced to coexist with. I make no eye contact. I do not conduct my business in places they exist. It can be done with very little inconvenience.

You are responsible for your own personal safety. Make your planned activities and choices accordingly.

White liberals always think everyone thinks on their level. They’re incapable of comprehending barbarism.

He was hit and treated horribly at a horror film. Horrendous!

Does his Harvard research include horror?

How in the world did he not know better than to tell his better’s to shush? After all, it’s the world Harvard folks have made for themselves.

Another mountain out of a molehill. No need to involve police.

I encourage these young men to accept the Harvard professors’ apology for violating their free speech rights and let it go.

I can't really estimate when this trend started in theaters. Probably 1980s.

Long enough for all to learn : No, you don't challenge the offenders. You don't criticize. You don't act surprised when they follow you outside in the dark.

That goes for any and all races.

This can go in the discussion I saw recently on a news show: How come theater attendance is still on the wane? One said too many sequels. No, the problem is the people.

A couple of years ago a golf buddy mentioned he’d seen OPPENHEIMER. Another buddy asked ‘were there a lot of Canadians’ in the theater. WTF I thought… Canadians in suburban Maryland in the summer? And how would one know they were Canadian?! Took me a while to figure it out…

Wonder if he’s a conservative now.

Last time I was in a theater was for TOP GUN: MAVERICK. I certainly would not attend any midnight showings in an urban area.

Yeah, there is.

The usual suspects.

“He described the suspects as skinny black men in hoodies wearing all-black clothes, according to the police statement.

‘I want the attackers to be identified because they need to be punished,’ he told NBC Boston.

Rentz added that he has heard nothing from AMC since the incident. “
