You seem really fixated on denying how one guy could have shot that many people...it's a bit creepy.

The CBC still isn't reporting on this, I suppose it doesn't matter, just find it odd.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
Yeah, Arvada/Westminster can get sketchy as heck too.

Terribly worded, but he's just pointing out the bias that for it to be terrorism it has to be of foreign influence and not just a lunatic.
Which would also be terrorism.

Sadly he has a point. If the guy is brown and Muslim he will represent everything that is wrong with Islam, if he is white and christian then it would be some isolated incident and Christianity will not even be mentioned.
Wow, really? You seem to be fixated on it only being one shooter when even the police have not 100 percent confirmed it was only one person, should i call you creepy to?
They just showed this video on Sky News. Seeing all these people streaming out but knowing some won't...
I can't find anything to corroborate it yet, but Sky News are also saying:
- An eyewitness has said the attacker was dressed all in black and was wearing a riot helmet, bulletproof vest and goggles.
- One of the victims was aged just 6.
Oh sh*t....

If you watch it you can see an injured guy with blood on his shirt being escorted out by a policeman
.You'd be amazed at how much a rifle bullet can penetrate before it stops.

It's telling when 9News interviews someone who works at the theater, and they specifically went to another theater to watch the premiere.

Didn't check the site, meant the Live brodcast that's currently on television. I figured it was because they were reporting on the Toronto shooting, but now they've moved onto sports..
I understand the penetration power of a bullet but no one has confirmed what kind of guns we're used. Some are saying AR-15 some are saying just hand guns and a shotgun.

OK, this goes for a lot of things, but applies here too:
Please, GAF, don't base your views on humanity on a few deranged/childish attention seekers.

Only 15 miles from Columbine, CO.
Just tragic for the community.
Just tragic for the community.
I'm not fixated on anything, I've been giving reports, and the police said multiple times there's no evidence of a second gunman. You'll forgive me if I believe them over you.

They're interrupting regular broadcasts here in Australia with blurbs about this.
Terrible, terrible news.
Terrible, terrible news.
Sickening.

Christ. This is really, deeply upsetting.
If you say so, no one has any croncrete facts except how many are injured/dead at this point and even that is still in flux, please stop with the attack just because im trying to wrap my head around this.

6 year old? Seriously? The fact that a 6 year old was even there is already upsetting, should not bring any 6 year old that late to a film.
They said that he did not resist. Nothing other than that. He was apprehended in the rear parking lot.

The theatre walls I've seen seem thin and almost sponge like when you touch it. They're soundproof but I imagine not very bulletproof. I think a bullet could have easily went through to the next theatre room.

Those two places are different worlds. Completely different worlds.
I went to Columbine, which is in Littleton, or Unincorporated Jefferson County, and its a totally different place than Aurora.
We don't know, there is a lot of info that has yet to be confirmed.
