So I woke uo this morning after a nigtmare and turned on the TV.

See the news about this mass shooting in Aurora CO.

Some 14 people dead, at least 50 injured.

Act of terrorism or just a damned kook?

Took place during Batman movie, around 12:30 in the morning.

Watch this carefully as it unfolds, I suspect like Columbine it will have an impact on all of us in all parts of the country.

I woke up to this news also and couldn't believe it. Plays right into Obummer's plans don't it. It's hard to believe that someone didn't have any idea that this was going to happen and could have stopped it. It's really sad that things like this go on. I still believe that the games that kids played fuel things like this. I have a neighbor whose son is now about 24 yrs old that played games, mostly the ones killing people who developed a drug problem and became so insenitive to hurting people. He decided he wanted to join the army at age 15 so he could really shoot people. Remember the families of the 14 dead and 50 injured in prayer. Jackie B.

Another snothead who was not taught values by his parents.

Learning about life from movies and video games led to the Columbine shootings, too.

I wonder if Colorado has something in the water?

HM

What is it, 15 minutes of fame? What makes someone just walk in and shoot people for no reason? Perhaps, I'm a dunce but, it's beyond me to understand. There dose not seem to be any fear of the repercussions of the act. Last week a kid shot a woman in the face, and killed her because she asked the driver to slow down on a residential street. Maybe if we started hanging these punks in the town square, where they committed the act as soon as possible, it may kindle some fear of their end result. I had a cousin, Judge Issac Parker that hung over 80 men. Some six at a time. Make these punks FEAR the Hangman, and they may think twice.

Report is the shooter's car had Tennessee plates on it, but has apt in Aurora. White male, 24, name is James Holmes, had vest, tear gas and some reports of helmet, gas mask or goggles.

As always with early reports and eye witness statements, half of it is bogus.

More gun bans/control and push for UN treaty??

This is getting just too damn familiar.

Movie showing canceled in France.

Could Hollyweird be a victim of their own "art"??????

And don't forget those famous words, "never let a crisis go to waste"

Well, I was scared sh*tless this morning when I turned the news on.

My oldest Granddaughter lives in Aurora, but I got on line and found out she is okay.

They should have shot him instead of arresting him. He does not deserve to live.

He has devastated a lot families by his cowardly actions.

My prayers are out to those involved.

Hauxfan!

All is good, Obama is cutting his trip short and returning to the WH, so he can fix this

Yep, Obama's fault. He probably gave him the gun!

My heart and prayes go out to all affected by this sensless act of violence. This is the act of a sick mind that can't be helped, a coward that needs to pay the price that he has extracted form those poor people in AuroraCo.

Stl Flynn

really?

You right wingers are all alike.

I am surprised nobody is blaming Bush fot this.

My point is, everyone is going to be calling for more laws regulating guns and people and nobody will look at the cultural breakdown being a big part of the problem.

------------------------

Coming too to a theater near you, metal detectors and a free frisk.

Does Colorado have CCL?

It's a shame there wasn't someone armed and in attendance at that movie. Someone to STOP this wacko just after he fired his first few shots. Remember the female staff member a few years back who saved the day at a church in Colorado? Where is Jeanne Assam when we need her?

We need CCL holders to help keep our rotting society in check. Police can't be everywhere all the time.

A bucket of gasoline will do more damage in a crowded movie theater then a so called assault rifle will. Just think, if only 1 person in that movie theater had a CCW and was packing they could have prevented some of the casualties, and would have become a national hero.

Yes, we have CCW, but remember a dark, gas filled theater, kids, noise, panic.........

It's a damn shame, they just need to kill the asshole, not analyze him

The part that really sucks now is he has to be put on trial to see if he is guilty!!Someone needs to total this up and when he finally gets sentenced point out what the tax payers cost would be for a 10 foot piece of rope and a tree vs the Trial,Lawyers,Cost to house this dirt bag and free medical for the rest of his life.Etc!!Or just bring him to me,I could use another zombie target!PJ

I believe it may be a conspiracy between our President and Holywood! Let's see if Rush (Viagra & Oxcycoitan Head) Limbugh runs with this one.

Here is your rush to judgement from the alphabet news media!!

They are as bad as the shooter!!

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/07/20/It-Begins-ABC-Ross-Stephanolpoulos-Point-to-Tea-Party-for-Dark-Knight-Shooting

You'll have to copy and paste.

Blade, are you trying to be as sic as the shooter??

Obo's action at his campaign rally speaks volumes, got heckled and walked out like he was pouting. Shooting stole his daily thunder.

Wonder what the "body language" watches will say about it??

timberfaller.... your judgement to rely on a web site that was run by a lunatic who drank himself to death shows who you are. This is my friend Ricks thread I don't want to encroach.

blade819

The timing sucks. With the U.N crap and Obama looking to be re elected and all. I say either or both Obama and Hillary put this person up to it just to PUSH their reason to justify the banning of guns. To them whats a few dead people to what they want.

My heart goes out to the people and families who got hurt because of this asshole.

It appears as if the MSM (read ABC) called this rather quickly - not a member of the Tea Party, but apparently a registered Democrat...

Keep an eye open, and an ear to the ground.

Blade819

Feel free to encroach.

Rush is off today out playing golf, so we will have to wait for his words of wisdom, on Monday.

I did not know you were a fan and listened to Rush.

I doubt very much he will try to tie this to Obama, unlike Geo. Stepalloverus is trying to tie it to the Tea Party, this time and when the media tried to blame the Arizona Congresswoman shooting and Zimmerman to the Tea Party and Limbaugh.

Seems to me it is the Left that always tries to blame the right for this stuff.

------------------------------------------------

APD chief reported 71 people shot total, but no report on total rounds so far. Some could be pass throughs, as one round hit a person in next theater.

Policy of theater chain is no CC other than LEO.

Seems most of the victims were young.

holder won't prosecute black gangs for assaulting peaceful non-blacks. He said "blacks have suffered enough."

Mr. Holmes, we have determined that you are defective and must be returned to the Manufacturer. We have determined you will be shipped via the Electric Chair.

Not to worry, Obama and Eric Holder are on top of this situation. Justice will prevail. I trust both of them, don't you? Besides, some how, some way this is all the fault of one of the Bush guys.

Rick.......Of course I was kidding. I haven't come over to the "Dark Side" yet. :o) My advice to everyone. This is not politics!!!!!!!! This is a mentally deranged shooter and we should leave it at that and feel sorry and pray for the victims and their families! I do not understand why peolpe need to put a political spin on every frickin thing, good or bad, that happens. Personally I'm tired of it.

blade819

I think he is a fake Republican!

"your judgement to rely on a web site that was run by a lunatic who drank himself to death shows who you are."

????????????????????????????????

Does the "truth" scare you, blade?

ABC has made a half heartless apology.

What govt agency does the shooter belong to?? Falls in line with ATT,anti guns,assault rifles handguns,ammo,bombs everything in this mans apt. Lived in San Diego,car registered? plates from Tenn, tried to make it sound he was a transient until a announcer slipped up said upps he said all of that but lived in this apt ONE MONTH, then withdrew from medical school in Colorado. Where did he live while attending school that year? Was an excellent student, had a PHD was top of his class. Sounds like a nutty guy right BS Chief says he had dyed red hair,dressed in black,bullet proof vest naturally, ballistic helmet, wearing the latest Gucci gas mask, carried 2 glock 40 caliber handguns in his pockets,one model 870 Remington 12 gauge shotgun and assault rifle used them all in the theater. After he finished, he walked out to his car, put all the guns in his car and waited for the police to come and arrest him.
