Girl who was at the theater said shooter just came in and started shooting, and cops shot him, according to FB


sounds like the cops got him quick and probably saved a bunch of people. sounds like a similar copycat Colorado theater shooting. not sure if that POS was actually watching the movie, or just walked in.

anybody in Lafayette that can say if any TV's stations have gone on air Live?




Katc did but went back to regular programming. It's an ongoing situation apparently.

I don't know if it's more frequent or if it's just the quickness of the media, but these things are definitely on the news more in the The last 10 years. And I think the attention they bring only makes it more likely for crazies to get an idea on their head. Really sucks to hit so close to home. Really gets me angry. I'm a gun owner and am against restricting freedom to own in any form, but there's something wrong in this country. I'm not blaming guns, but there's something pretty fricking wrong for this many people to want to kill people for no reason. That's the problem.

I know this is a gruesome thought: but why do many mass shooters not get away before the cops arrive?

Please let it be true that someone with a CCL shot the shooter. Please.

Would be fantastic news. The media could then start an agenda, like they did with the fricking confederate flags and how the blacks have been wronged. But, they won't.

The people with CCL's aren't the ones doing these mass shootings most of the time. Businesses that don't allow people to carry should rethink their stance on it, because one person with a CCL can save lives in situations like this.

Honestly the only way to get rid of GUN violence is to remove GUNS.


You are about to piss some people off. They will have tons of data that is flimsy at best, but refuse to use common sense when presenting their argument.

I'm saying there needs to be something better done about gun violence in this country, I don't know the answer, but there has to be something.



The criminals obviously do not care what the laws are. The best way to stop this is for law abiding citizens to be trained and to shoot back.

What a fricking piece of shite!

Why kill others because you are a frick up

You can't make me believe he didn't do this because of all of the coverage these things get.

Back in the day he would have probably just suck-started a shotgun.

Why is it only in the U.S. though? Or so much more prevalent here? It's an awfully big coincidence that we have the most relaxed gun laws in the first world, and have by far the biggest percentage of mass shootings in the first world.

But as HH said this isn't the place for that discussion. This hits way too close to home. I've been to this theater literally 50 times. I was planning to go see Ant-Man there sometime in the next few weeks. Bad enough if this was a personal conflict gone bad, but if this was an attempt at an Aurora like situation...just frick man.
