The movie houses channel popcorn smoke deliberately into the theaters to create more desire to buy it.
The shooters probably had inside access, like being an employee.
I’m surprised to not hear of anyone else who was carrying. I think I will start carrying when I go to the movies. With a tactical light.
Even with a CHL, the law in my state prohibits carrying into any event where admission has been charged - which includes a movie theatre. For a gunman bent on mass murder, such an event is like shooting fish in a barrel.
I wonder how many lives might have been saved if one or more people in the audience had been legally carrying?
