If you're going to the Star Wars premiere...

Don't forget your firearm. I've got a feeling shit's going to go down at one of these somewhere.

Verbatim · December 13, 2015, 03:03:36 PM

Golden opportunity, really.

True Turquoise · December 13, 2015, 03:04:04 PM

I'm going to the Empire

Some of you fanboys are all right.

Apparently, there were a bunch of stolen propane tanks and a bulk purchase of pre-paid cell phones in Missouri.

It's happening people!

Jono · December 13, 2015, 03:13:26 PM

Theaters would be stupid to not increase security at the premiere

Batch · December 13, 2015, 03:34:24 PM

Han shot first

Mr. Psychologist · December 13, 2015, 03:35:08 PM

Time to make the rebels pay.

Oh · December 13, 2015, 03:37:06 PM

i've got my body armour ready for a chav stabbing spree.

Thun · December 13, 2015, 03:45:25 PM

The safest option would be to pirate it m8s. That's what I'm doing.

True Turquoise · December 13, 2015, 04:13:31 PM

All the tension aside, I'd love to see a bunch of nerds beat up some guy who tried to hurt them with their plastic light sabers, like just a whole group dressed up on one guy.

The way that Holmes guy did was by propping open the emergency exit and parking his car just outside. I think if people should keep an eye out for things like that. I don't know how they're gonna screen for small arms though.

Naru · December 13, 2015, 04:59:18 PM

its going to be killer

Mmmmm Napalm · December 13, 2015, 05:20:18 PM

Isn't it just great that mass shooters are such assholes, that they've made us scared to see movies we're excited for?

Truly a wonderful time in history.

Mr. Psychologist · December 13, 2015, 05:23:56 PM

to be fair, that's what happens when you ignore gun control and mental healthcare for decades

You reap what you sow, yanks.

Mental health is definitely the core issue.

We have to analyze socio-cultural changes over the last few decades and try and figure this out. Why is this happening all the time now? I believe it to be a number of factors, including but not limited to: poor mental health programs, the increased acceptability and accessibility of extremely violent and sexual content that could be viewed by children (without the guidance of an adult) and so forth.

and guns

lots and lots of guns

god i love guns

But really though, to beat the dead horse some more because i can't really shitpost without being serious

The UK has a similar problem with it's shitty mental healthcare access, it's not as bad as the states because you don't rely on insurance/wonga to get seen by a shrink but it's hardly easy access either. We just don't have guns, explosives and god knows what other tacticool shit you can find at walmart in copious amounts, so our disturbed kids don't really get to go postal in the cafeteria.

Mental health is a big part of the problem, but if yanks didn't get gunboners like nobody else on the planet - you wouldn't have school shootings every other week/month.

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll be fine. I'm actually going to see the movie after the craziness dies out.

Yes, but why didn't shootings of this type happen so much say 40, 50 years ago?
There is a broader issue that underscores these shootings, and I believe their is a way to lessen them without completely sacrificing the remnants of the "frontier culture" that helps provide cultural distinction from other Western countries.

Declining mental health as a result of western culture's unhealthy focus on the material, 'the american dream', economy going into the shitter etc etc

Add to that all the extra guns that billybob can now pick up from the supermarket rather than tommyguns being the preserve of al capone and you have the perfect shitstorm

It's been like this mate. It's just now reported more because of mass media and the Internet. Similar to police brutality, it's always been like it is now, but now it's reported more because of current technology.
