Man arrested for bringing gun into Thornton movie theater

[meuxse]

Fair enough. What is the population of Pleasant Grove , Utah and was there a mass murder there at a theater a little over a week ago? By the way, I did OC at my local grocery store with an empty holster while my pistol was in my Maxpedition bag after work the other day. Nothing happened.

34,000 as of the July 2011 census. Versus 5,222 in edge water Colorado for the same census month and year. Point?

Come on dude. Edgewater is a bordering suburb of Denver, as is Aurora. I work in Aurora. Emotions are very high in this area after the shooting. How hard is that to understand?

I also have a CCP. Got it more for the education that comes with it and the fewer restrictions for carry. I can OC two actions from firing. Or round chambered. OC only and no CCP has to be two actions from firing. No round in chamber.

I live in Aurora, and I go armed... because tension is high. How hard is that to understand?

I respect your opinions and views here, I really do. To avoid looking like you are here only to stir up this thread, can I suggest you involve yourself in other threads and topics on this site?

Sounds a bit funky. We have no such restrictions. Still- it sounds like you live in a kind of small town very far away from here. Probably a great place to live. It's likely a little different here a little over a week after a mass murder. That's my only point with you. I'm still waiting for the local headcount of people who will OC at a theater around here this coming weekend to show their support for Thornton OC man. Don't think I'm going to get any takers.

Sorry to come across as a stirrer. I happened on this site through the Utah concealed carry site. The only thread that isn't about "post whores" or "is this site legit" or "what are your mods" or any others that don't really apply to me is this one. I am not trying to cause problems. Just trying to defend OC from going away anywhere. First it goes, then the "assault rifles" or anything that looks like one, then my handgun. Ugly road we head down when we roll over, even if only for a minute. Doesn't take much to lose what we aren't willing to constantly and consistently defend. It is much easier when we restrict it ourselves for them to relinquish us of them. I understand the sensitive situation there. How could we not?

Education is never a bad thing.

I agree completely. Hopefully, if you look past general discussion (our off topic area), you will find some more worth-while topics here that you can contribute too, in addition to this one. I know I certainly do. If it wasn't clear, I am NOT asking you to stop posting in this thread, not the point I am making.

I posted on another thread about business's not CCW friendly. I have a few credit card receipts from this place. Never carried in there, used to be safe to see a movie. The staff seems scatter-brained and the poorest customer service you could ever expect for high priced items. They serve alcohol and the staff must be drinking and smoking backstage. Burnt food, the wrong check, staff just scratching their heads at simple requests. I agree this guy used bad judgement, but maybe this poor excuse for a business will get less income from this incident. Or maybe more? now that it's safe. Vote with you dollar.
