I agree; what has happened is dreadful, but comments about this horror are not really about this theater in terms of its architecture or exhibition history.

The crazy guy reportedly came in through the emergency exit door.

And where was security? Many theatres don’t have security, or if they do it’s only on weekends or during particularly volatile films. Asking where was security is almost like asking the question “Why wasn’t there an usher sitting in each theatre to make sure the temperature doesn’t get too hot?” It’s just not realistic, especially when you see the quality of some security firms out there. Now had it been an off-duty police officer I think that’d be different story.

Very sad news here. I read this too and heard it on the radio from both National Public Radio and the BBC News. A 9-year old girl remains in critical condition at a local hospital while a 3-month old infant is on life support at the same hospital where the little girl is. This has gotten crazy. Where was the security when this broke out? Anyone who went to the screening should have noticed something suspicious about a crazy individual seconds before he did the unthinkable. They should have called the police THEN!!! And police officers should have been there to beef up and increase security at this theatre. It doesn’t make sense!!!
