Cinemark Theaters Was On Notice Their NO GUNS Policy was a Gun Free Killing Zone
Manasquan, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- As far back as 2009 pro gun activists had made Cinemark management aware that their NO Guns Policy was just creating a gun free zone where only the inncent and lawabiding would be unarmed.
Headquartered in Plano, TX, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. is a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry with 459 theatres and 5,181 screens in the U.S. and Latin America as of March 31, 2012, their website reports.
Cinemark owns the Century 16 movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, scene of last nights mass shooting. Cinemark doesnt allow anyone other than law enforcement officers to carry legal firearms in their theaters.
The ban hadnt escape the attention of some of Cinemarks law-abiding, gun-toting customerseven before last nights homicidal frenzy

Your earlier comment- about if someone had been there with a weapon (CCW holder), things might have turned out differently.
I had that exact conversation with my co-workers this morning... and they looked at me as though I was on drugs! (California people, dontcha' know...)
The population of Colorado is 5.2 million, and the number of Colorado CCW holders is 139,560- or 2.7%. Which means- statistically- there should have been several people able to stop that shit-bag, and in the process, save lives.
Sadly though, most CCW holders obey the wishes of organizations such as the owner of the movie chain... And this is the price for that naivete'... Senseless, and tragic.
When I get out of California, I'll renew my CCW, and again carry everywhere they don't require me to go through metal-detectors. I've done so at airports (when not actually having to go through security myself), universities, restaurants, everywhere.
As this incident demonstrates, the police are incapable of protecting us, only writing reports and hosing the blood off the sidewalk, after it's all over with. Look at the VA Tech massacre, to see how our brave "men in blue" behave, when they have the opportunity to actually do some good.
They'll cower behind walls, until the bad guy runs out of ammo, uses the last bullet on himself.
The police are fucking useless.
We're on our own, and have been for a long time... hopefully, people will start to get the picture, before more people die needlessly.
"Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one's self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all." Michael Rivero
"According to the nation's citizenry, calls for a mature, thoughtful debate about the role of guns in American society started right on time, and should persist throughout the next week or so. However, the populace noted, the debate will soon spiral out of control and ultimately lead to nothing of any substance, a fact Americans everywhere acknowledged they felt "absolutely horrible" to be aware of."
"With scalpel-like precision, the American populace then went on to predict, to the minute, how long it will take for the media to swarm Aurora, CO, how long it will take for them to leave, and exactly when questions will be raised as to whether or not violence in movies and video games had something to do with the act.
The nation's citizens also confirmed that, any time now, some religious figure or cable news personality will say something unbelievably insensitive about the tragic shooting.
"Unfortunately, I've been through this a lot, and I pretty much have it down to a science when President Obama will visit Colorado, when he will meet with the families of those who lost loved ones, and when he will give his big speech that people will call 'unifying' and 'very presidential,'" Jacksonville resident Amy Brennen, 32, said, speaking for every other person in the country. "Nothing really surprises me when it comes to this kind of thing anymore. And that makes me feel terrible."
I was channel surfing and bored and noticed CBS did a one-hour coverage on this story following their nightly news. They canceled whatever mind numbing program that was scheduled for that hour...for another one. I watched for about three minutes.
What was interesting was that they interviewed a young black man who had some buckshot in his shoulder - injured victim. The black guy didn't know whether one of his woman friends he attended the movie with was dead or alive.
Talk about total information control...or lack thereof...
