What to do when people near you make too much noise ?

Now it would have been different if the victim had a gun too , then he could have shot in self defence as soon as his family was viciously assaulted with popcorn .
Nice article. Very telling about our society's never-hesitate attitude when it comes to using deadly force.
The correct response would have been to politely ask the persons involved to be quiet. Then, if they do not, ask the manager for a refund while the movie is still playing, explaining why you cannot enjoy the film. Chances are the manager will oblige or expel the offending guest after a warning. Or, if you have children with you or don't want to chance upsetting a psychopath, just collect your refund and leave.
Isn't shooing people who go to see a Brad Pitt movie a legal obligation? :inquisitive:
Ah, yes! Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, City of Brotherly Love…
One consolation; the shooter should get to view the rest of the movie during inmate recreation at the prison. bring your shank just in case
In fact, it's becoming a holiday tradition in some places...:shame:
1. Sweatpants to the theater; yet he expected formal movie silence - in Christmas Day?Quote:

3. Article doesn't say whether Mr. C also carried a Penn State CCW license in his other sweatpants pocket. I bet = no.
My brother says your full of crap on the gun. :laugh4:
Crazy Americans with their guns!!!
It's good to live here in Estonia where someone just beats you up when you talk too loud in cinema. :laugh4:
We shoot people because it's more polite. A beating would have taken too long and the movie would be over. Since he shot the guy in the arm he was able to walk out of the theater allowing the rest of the patrons to enjoy the movie.Quote:

Yes, clearly a man shooting a father in front of his son while watching a movie for no reasons is an indictment of other people, not the man who brought a gun to a theater and tried to kill a dad.Quote:

The "correct response" would have been to watch the movie online for free if you have psychotic aversion to people eating popcorn in a movie theater.
One of the funniest movies I ever went to was when there was this loudmouthed fat guy in the back. The whole movie he was yelling stuff and eating a ridiculous amount of popcorn. None of it in a serios voice.
"Hes behind the door you dumb piece of ****"
"Why the **** would you do that? Are you ****ing retarded?"
"Holy **** that guy is black"
Around the end of the movie this guy like 2 seats in front of him told him to be quiet. The fat guy threw all of his popcorn on the guy and stormed out of there (quick for a fat guy).
I think maybe we are miscommunicating, I wasn't blaming the victim, I was blaming the shooter.Quote:
