This is a lack of corporate common sense, epidemic in America.

Wonder what the motive was for this ?

For what it's worth, the last movie I saw in a theater was Team America in 2004.

We do not go into any business that has a gun free zone sigh on the front door. As both of us legally CCL you can see why we have not been to a movie in years. The mall movie houses in our area you would never go to on a weekend anyway. Like a war zone on Friday and Saturday night and I have no ideal were the scum and thugs all come from.

I don't go anymore either. Why pay so much for garbage?

Now that crowded movie theaters are becoming targets for the deranged and the theater owners won't provide for my safety, that's another reason to stay away.

I've been told movie theaters are struggling. Stupid policies like gun-free zones won't help the bottom line.

I stopped going to movies 30 years ago. I do not want to give liberals my money.

I wonder why they are not releasing the gunman’s name yet.

Exactly. They surely know who he is.

His description is 58 year old white male.

Lots of details for once.

Officials could be scrubbing his profile from the internet.

Maybe we should try waiting periods before we go for a total ban...

There is no law in most states against it. All they can do is ask you to leave if they find out.

If you are properly CC, no one knows...I walk past those signs with my gun with not even a passing thought. I’m retired, my fishing buddy and I now and then hit a movie when the weather is bad. Although they have a gun free zone sign, I guarantee that movie house is far from gun free...we BOTH carry. Today, not carrying a gun to a theater is far more dangerous than carrying one. Odds are nothing will ever happen....however....
