12 dead, 58 injured in Colorado at midnight showing of Dark Knight

Five apartment buildings, all three stories tall, are evacuated thanks to what they've found in the apartment.

 

Update on the national check. Pennsylvania doesn't use it as it has a stricter system.

Some Colorado tidbits.

 

Sorry. I'm in the middle of a demo and renovation in my basement. I have been in the dark all evening. Horrible tragedy all around.

 

By that thinking if you say you shouldn't take your infant to a midnight showing of a movie, then you shouldn't stay out past 8 p.m. anywhere.
My wife and I were lucky. Our child slept through the night from Day 1. If you have a kid like that, you equip them with earwear to protect their eardrums from damage. If they wake up, sucks for you, your night is done. If your kid sleeps through the night, what's the harm.

On another note, this was the trailer shown before the Dark Knight in Rhode Island; good to see WB pulled it.

This guy had one speeding ticket.

 

What do you mean "sucks for you"? No, how 'bout it sucks for everyone else in the theater too. I've raised kids of my own and I'd be pissed if I went to a midnight movie and it was disturbed by a crying infant who shouldn't be there in the first place.

I just have a problem with a parent thinking it's OK to take an infant to a midnight movie. The baby should be in its crib at that hour, not galivanting around so mom and dad can hang on to a social life.

It's kind of selfish and immature on the part of parents. Parents don't have to be hermits, but they also shouldn't act like they're still living a single life either. That ended when the baby came.

If you're jonesing to go to a movie that bad, hire a sitter or have grandma and grandpa come over if they're around. Otherwise, suck it up, rent a movie, and have a stay at home date.
