Each one of them attacked a gun free zone. So figure that one out.
The Colorado shooter did not attack in a gun free zone. There were people with guns in the theatre who did not use them because they couldn't see what was going on and it was too chaotic.
oh Rily?
John Lott's Website: No guns policy at Cinemark Theaters?
There were survivors interviewed who said they had their guns with them and couldn't see what was going on.
I doubt the theatre frisks those who enter.
Links?
It was four years ago. I don't remember whether this was a TV interview or a print report. I do remember that the the guy was either an off-duty cop or military. He said that the tear gas made it impossible to see, and it all happened too quickly to get a sense of what was going on.
There was a media barrage of reports and information in every newspaper and TV station. It's impossible to find much of it now without knowing exactly where to look.
if he was an off duty cop, he was exempted probably from the gun free zone clause. If he wasn't he was breaking the rules set by the theater.
In any even these idiots target areas they know that:
1) The people are disarmed
2) There is no effective perimeter to enforce said disarmament.
