Proof that smarts doesn't always equal smart -

"It turns out that Holmes, who has roots in San Diego, was student at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora. He was in the process of withdrawing at the time of the shooting, university officials said. He was a doctoral student in the neuroscience program."

Wow, someone who was getting their PhD?!?!

The Black Night Rises.
It's a movie.
Make believe.
Fiction.

I don't understand why it becomes someone's reality.
I don't understand the violence.

[madchives]

except for the signing about how could anyone kill so many people

[tearlessnights]

Imagine the movie like contagion happening IRL. Guns would go off everywhere in the US. its only a matter of time... seriously

The trailer which is running before The Dark Knight has a shootout by gangsters in a theatre (at 2:00). The company isn't running it any longer. They'll run another trailer which doesn't show the shooting.

It's on YT now, but I'll bet it will be taken off soon, so I won't embed it here, just leave the link.

How not to respond to a tragedy

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said Friday that the shootings that took place in an Aurora, Colo. movie theater hours earlier were a result of "ongoing attacks on Judeo-Christian beliefs" and questioned why nobody else in the theater had a gun to take down the shooter.
During a radio interview on The Heritage Foundation's "Istook Live!" show, Gohmert was asked why he believes such senseless acts of violence take place. Gohmert responded by talking about the weakening of Christian values in the country.
"Some of us happen to believe that when our founders talked about guarding our virtue and freedom, that that was important," he said. "Whether it's John Adams saying our Constitution was made only for moral and religious people ... Ben Franklin, only a virtuous people are capable of freedom, as nations become corrupt and vicious they have more need of masters. We have been at war with the very pillars, the very foundation of this country."
"You know what really gets me, as a Christian, is to see the ongoing attacks on Judeo-Christian beliefs, and then some senseless crazy act of a derelict takes place.

I made a mistake here. I assumed that because she was at the Eaton Centre she was Canadian (and I thought I heard that on TV). She's not, she's a Texan who was working in Colorado, went to Toronto to visit her bf.

Again, tragic all around.
