A very sad situation for the families.Who would ever think that simply going to a movie could end like like that?
There'll be a new push for far stricter regulations because of what happened.But no amount of laws will ever stop criminals or people who've gone off the deep end.Only law abiding gun owners will be affected.

He dyed his hair red and claimed he was the Joker. This guy is an obvious nut job.. More to the point, according to witnesses, sometime during the shooting he paused to reload. What I can't understand is why people didn't jump him during that pause. I mean, if someone's shooting at me and I have no place to go anyways, then attacking is the next best option. (I know that tear gas had been released, but not everyone was effected by it. It's those people I'm talking about).

I must be strong minded myself because I swear to god if I was sitting in the front and he walked in a exit door wearing that stupid $hit then I would have choked him the fu@k out while he was going for the canisters!!!!! I must have been raised different than others!!! I just don't play that $hit!!!!! I am fully aware of my surroundings at all times. Second thing is I wouldn't have left my house for a midnight show without having my piece on me. The reason I would have had my gun on me is because of my comfort zone at 12:00 at night is not all that good. It's really sad!!! Your gonna have more and more people packing heat after this one. Just hope the guns don't get taken away from the good guys!!!!!!

As a former full time police officer and a current reservist with Bureau of Alcohol and Tobacco here in Florida, I recommend that EVERY law abiding citizen that can obtain a concealed firearms permit get one and carry 100% of the time. There are too many crazies out there these days and I would hate to be caught in a situation where I "could have" done something and couldn't because I didn't carry on that particular day. My wife carries 100% of the time as I do, with the exception of turning mine in at the guard gate daily because of the facility that I work at. God be with those that perished and their families in this time of tragedy.

Sucks for the victims and families especially the kids.

When i first heard of it the first thing i said was "One person with a .38 snubnose could have ended it before it started".

I hope they hang the bastard and soon.

It seems that the times have changed so much we all need to carry protection everywhere we go. I remember the good ole days when all you needed was your two fist to solve most problems. Now people are afraid of getting their a$$ kicked, so they pack a gun.

Sad but true.

When I used to deliver pizza I went to a bad area about 1:00 am and two 7 yr old black kids ran up to my car window firing cap guns and I just about sh.it myself.
I have never been right since...
