    We can shoot assholes now? Now I'm really getting a gun.

    Also someone at the theater will be fired!? I bet that highschool student will be pissed.

    Maris I get that you're not a real person, but this is over the line.

    He's wrong, but there are more deaths by club and hammer than by rifles.

    I said he was wrong :)

    I think he went from memory and misstated the fact.

    Clubs to rifles is like 8:6

    The nice thing about those graphs if we can trust the FBI, is that all kinds of murder have steadily dropped and are now only half what they were 20 years ago.

    Considering our tremendous population growth over that time that's an amazing feat.

    Good job, America! :cheers:

    Throwing popcorn is not a physical altercation. I hope that 71 year gets gang raped for the rest of his life over this.

    The ironic part of this story is that the old man still didnt get to see the movie that he was so pissed about missing due to the texting.

    Whatever happened to taking your licks in a stand-up fight? If you need a gun to settle a fist-fight you're a fucking pussy.

    The guy was an ex-cop. He was probably a lifelong loser who was used to exert his authority over weaker people. The guy he shot looks like some annoying frat bro who was probably a grade-A asshole when the old ex-cop tried to address everything through the usual channels. I'm thinking frat bro pushed his buttons so much that the guy just raged out and lost control.

    Except he was texting during a preview, plus if you are going to shoot someone do it in a Tyler Perry movie, I mean at least then they deserved it for liking Tyler Perry.

    It wasn't even a fist fight. There was supposedly no punches thrown..... only popcorn.

    This I especially agree with the man is a retired cop, you know a profession where they train you in combat.

    I think he was referring to the old man expecting a fist fight.
