Reading some news about some isolate incident your day ? First world problems I call it. Feel sorry about the victms and I wish them well, but my day's ruined by something else already ><

On topic: How can you get into a cinema theater without some employees having a look at you; I used to remember there were employees checking you out so you don't have hidden sodas/snacks bought for 10 times cheaper than what they were selling. And they also get the tickets from you. Hiding a gun under your T-shirt ( it's summer ) seems strange. They must've found another way in or something.

Different people have different levels of empathy and reactions - it's not "first world problems" and it's rude to call it that. Just because YOU don't feel that way, you shouldn't insult another person's feelings.

The cinema may be a more lax cinema, being not in a large city/town. Some of the more suburban theaters in NYC are very lax on security, and I would imagine that their staff were taxed by the amount of people seeing the grand opening.

Bit gratuitous to post her final tweets, possibly her final words to someone she was close to, don't you think?
I guess it puts a face on the inhumanity of the event.. It just seems.. invasive.

Aurora is hardly "not a large city/town." It's a fairly large suburb of Denver. And AFAIK, this theater had a history of security issues, which is no surprise in Aurora. I remember that the one time I had been there, several years ago, I saw at least one police officer.

But if he found a way to get in through the emergency exit (theoretically impossible, but easier to do than it should be), their security measures don't mean a damn thing.

She definitely puts a human face on the situation when everything is just so unclear and all we have are some infuriating and outrageous information about the general situation.

This is so sad. Some people are just so sick. I was actually surprised that one suspect was arrested alive. This just seems like the type of thing where the guy would off himself after, or would be shot by police.

I wonder what type of theatre security measures will be taken as a result of this. Will there be a compariable TSA for movies now?
