(sorry if this is a repost...)

"1. The theater. Karpel claims it was negligent for the theater to have an emergency door in the front that was not alarmed or guarded. It's widely believed Holmes entered the theater with a ticket, propped the emergency door open from inside, went to his car and returned with guns.
2. Holmes' doctors. Karpel says it appears Holmes was on several medications -- prescribed by one or more doctors -- at the time of the shooting and he believes the docs did not properly monitor Holmes.
3. Warner Bros. Karpel says Dark Knight Rises was particularly violent and Holmes mimicked some of the action. The attorney says theater goers were helpless because they thought the shooter was part of the movie."

I would bet pretty good money that the lawyer approached the victims about this lawsuit...not the other way around.

Let's add frivolous-lawsuit attorneys to the list of people we should publicly smear feces on.

Would hate to see any of these folks victimized again.

Don't think I agree with issues listed. Need to contemplate it more.

If anything.. I hope the insurance companies realize that allowing CCW may have helped preventing a psychopath like James Holmes from doing such thing - not the other way around.

Insurance companies force businesses to put up no firearms signs... insurance companies will pay for these lawsuits too! Greedy Lawyers vs greedy insurance, I dont feel sorry for them abit.

I'm not so sure that the lawyer approached this kid. I saw him on the news the other night and he's a fucking liberal piece of shit. Sorry, I know he's a "victim" of this horrible tragedy, but he's an idiot! I don't care, idiots can be victims too, but when they try to bring us down to their level I get infuriated. This kid wants a police state, plain and simple. He said "there's no need for anyone to own an AR-15," and "There should have been security guards at the theater." WHAT!? How about we just post a cop on EVERY corner? How about we just make theaters charge $45/ticket so they can hire BlackWater to come and guard us while we watch our movies? And violent movies are entertaining. Two of my favorite movies are Heat and The Town... I'm not more inclined to do anything wrong after watching them. I'll bet 99% of people who see violent movies are not. STFU you fucking idiot!
