A 65 year old woman trying to have a Shootout with 5 armed robbers is a plus for your argument? And with innocent civilians possibly being in the cross fire? Jesus, that lady is one stupid person.

Man caught with weapons at 'Dark Knight' screening
http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/20.../20075611.html

An Ohio man is in custody after he allegedly tried to bring weapons and ammunition into a screening of The Dark Knight Rises in a Cleveland suburb on Saturday.

Police say an off-duty cop became suspicious when he saw a man carry a satchel into the Regal Cinema in Westlake and sit down by himself in the theatre showing the Batman movie half an hour before showtime, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Officer Jeremiah Bullins asked if he could search the man's bag and found a loaded Glock 9-mm handgun, two clips of bullets and three knives, as well as another knife on the man, police told the newspaper.

That led police to get a search warrant for a home, where they found rifles, handguns and what's being called "survivalist gear" like gas masks and bulletproof vests, the newspaper reports.

Maybe if they hand out guns at the theater beside where they hand out the 3d glasses more people will have guns to stop the gun violence.

That's interesting, but I'm not sure what authorities could do, even with that information.

It may be just a state law(can't remember the state) but I remember an article where police can confiscate weapons on the advice of a persons Psychiatrist. had the police paid a visit to this nut things may have been different.

Then again the way he had his apartment wired it may have been a loud "BOOM" as well.

Kind of figured that's the way they were gonna go with this one.

I think the burden of proof in terms of insanity is pretty high, I bet the University psychiatrist who was dealing with him is going to be the key defense witness.

Why does everyone skip over the part of the second amendment that says 'WELL REGULATED'?

Totally unrelated, but I watched without the sound on and lol'ed at (i) the first robber pulling on the door twice, probably thinking WTF, and then realizing he had to push it to open (note the big "PUSH" sign), and (ii) literally four guys barrelling into each other trying the exit the same door, by pushing instead of pulling

Carry on...
