Guns dont kill people, popcorn kills people. Or maybe its texting. Or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time with some fool who thinks he needs to take a gun to the movies.

Don’t mess with 70+ guys, they have low tolerance. You never know what kind of a response you will get, especially if they are former service retired. In Florida there are many, and they do have a short fuse. They grew up in a respectful society, and don’t put up with the nonsense of what passes for it today. This is a case of a young hot head vs an old hot head. It could have been avoided, after all, when you go to see a movie you don’t want to listen to phones going off and conversations.
During deer hunting season in Wisconsin, I can drive down a number of rural roads and see hunters carrying their guns into the woods. Now according to lib columnists, these hunters should be shooting randomly at people in cars, right? Somehow, that never happens.
My vote is for texting during a movie. Some clueless wastes of skin deserve whatever they get. What good are they if they are so self-centered to be oblivious to etiquette, or simple social courtesy?
If I told you once, I've told you a million times not to exaggerate. Or engage in mindless hyperbole; or opening mouth before engaging brain.
Not many adults get numbers reversed so badly...
Be professional,
Be polite,
Be prepared to kill every old fart you meet.
Your faulty analysis does not change a thing. Stepping out to the lobby to deal with texting "emergencies" (by definition) is not an unreasonable expectation.
Perfect example, here is someone you do not want with you on the Freeper march to DC...if a bird crapped on his shoulder and he thought somebody threw it, it'd be all over.
Like a character out of Weinstein movie
I will be using the description often from now on.
I made no analysis. I regurgitated facts from various stories regarding the circumstances. Then I commented on the lack of reasonable evidence reported that would lead a normal person to suggest the victim was "a royal prick."
There is no argument that can be made about the validity of my post. You look silly trying to discredit me. The "royal prick" shot the evil texter in the chest after he got a face full of popcorn.

You realize that there were other theater-goers who were intimidated by the shooter Reeves in previous encounters at the same cinema?
This is a case of a young hot head peasant vs an old hot head entitled King's Man.
Fixed it for you.
At worst, a food fight should have followed the texting tirade. Popcorn, soda, M&Ms, Licorice slapping...
It’s a shame and pretty sad.
Cop mentality and training shoot first then ask questions, the victim was unlucky as there wasn’t a dog present.
I like it... me too!!!
“Florida theater killing proves guys with guns are primed to shoot”
So the police are primed to shoot us?
This just in:
Ex-cop’s lawyer told The Tampa Bay Times:
If it was popcorn, don’t you think the detective would have written popcorn? It’s an unknown object, dark in color. Those facts will come out.
Milk Dud? Raisinette? Junior Mint? UFO?
I was annoyed to learn at my fav theater that we are now assigned seats....makes it hard to get up and move if the guy behind you is annoying.
Guys with guns primed to shoot? LMAO Clueless liberal twit.
An off-duty officer (armed?) subdued the man.
A good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun.
A robbery (in St. Louis?) this week was stopped when a potential crime victim shot the robber in a store as he (a customer) and a clerk were being moved to a back room.
