Did the victims in the Colorado Movie Theater see this Gangster Squad Trailer?

I dont think the answer is necessarily legislating or outlawing things.

I think the answer may be that we need to reject this gangster culture on our streets and when Hollywood and the music industries glorify it.

Surely there must be some way we as a nation can return to the values that predate the ganster culture model that has led to so much violence and death?

I mean seriously, when movie makers are putting out things like Machete and Gangster Squad and Inglorious Bastards, there is no resistance. There is usually no resistance because those being slaughtered in the films are characterized as being racist and therefore somehow deserved of mass violence.

Well guess what folks, in the minds of the people making these movies.... all of us are the racists that they are telegraphing mass murder of. In Machete, they were slaughtering civilian border watchers like Minutemen. In Inglorious Bastards they made the mass murder victims Nazis but of course we have been called Nazis because some skinhead once posted a link to our site on a blog. And even if that had not happened, the left would still call us racists and nazis simply because we want our border secured and immigration laws enforced. Not sure who they make the enemy that gets slaughtered in the theater in Gangster Squad yet.

That is QUITE a story JD - It sounds like things that were done in another time and place like the 1940's in Germany or the 50's in Africa.

There must be a way to change the culture, but sadly, it is difficult. Just look at our politics. We're stuck with either Obama and Romney precisely because the nation refuses to say no to both parties and accept a third party candidate not beholden to the established two party system. But at least with politics, an Internet social movement/campaign could make a significant difference, but with culture, the negative aspects are just so embedded. If we can't get it done with our political landscape, it's definitely going to be much much harder to get it done on the cultural level.

University of Colorado officials disclosed Monday that mass shooting suspect James Holmes was being paid $26,000 a year for his studies, money that could have financed the cache of firearms, ammunition and explosive devices found in his apartment.

Heavily armed Maine man arrested, says attended "Batman" with gun

(Reuters) - Maine police arrested a heavily armed man driving on the state turnpike who carried clippings about the cinema massacre in Colorado and claimed he attended the new "Batman" film with a loaded gun, authorities said on Monday.

Timothy Courtois, 49, was driving 112 mph on the Maine Turnpike with an AK-47 assault weapon, four handguns and several boxes of ammunition in his car when state police pulled him over about 10 am on Sunday, said Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Steve McCausland.

He told police that he was headed to Derry, New Hampshire to shoot a former employer, McCausland said in a statement.

Courtois told police he had attended the new Batman movie, "The Dark Knight," at a theater in Saco, Maine on Saturday night with a loaded gun in his backpack, he said.

Police found clippings in his car about the mass shooting in Aurora, Colorado, where 12 people were killed and 58 wounded by a gunman at a Friday showing of "The Dark Knight," he said.

At Courtois' home in Biddeford, Maine, police found several additional guns, including a machine gun, and thousands of rounds of ammunition, he said.

Courtois was slated to appear in court on Monday in Springvale District Court on initial charges of speeding and carrying a concealed weapon, McCausland said.

A lot of these "going postal" crime sprees seem to have lost employment as a common denominator dont they?

My original concern has been proven correct.

The audience that was attacked by James Holmes watched a Trailer for Gangster Squad showing gangsters opening fire on an unsuspecting audience of movie goers before the batman movie.

Here is the confirming article...

Violent theater scene to be cut from 'Gangster Squad'

July 23, 2012, 6:58 PM EST

Entertainment Tonight

Repercussions of the Aurora, Colo. theater shooting continue as Variety reports that the upcoming movie "Gangster Squad" will omit a scene in which gangsters open fire on the unsuspecting audience of a crowded movie theater.

Find: 'Gangster Squad' trailer



The scene was featured prominently in the film's trailer, which ironically ran right before Thursday night's fateful screening of "The Dark Knight Rises." The trailer was pulled from subsequent screenings by Warner Bros. and now Variety reports that the studio is taking action on the film itself in consideration of the 12 people killed and dozens injured in the horrific massacre: The entire theater sequence of the movie will be cut, and reshoot plans are being put into motion.


Tell us on Facebook: Is this a good move? Or should they have left the movie alone?


Warner Bros. would not comment on the news. "Gangster Squad" is still scheduled to open in theaters Sept. 7.
