College dropout decides to do a 3 gun match on a bunch of innocent moviegoers at a midnight movie.
Innocent
Unarmed
Unsuspecting
Americans.
Holmes has now become the new poster child for gun control-remember also that Littleton isn't too far from there. Remember THAT?
This bastard aims a well-planned and executed attack on ordinary Americans-Americans already taxed and controlled and who now will bleat for even more control and pay more taxes and submit to more obedience training from psychopaths.
Expect a new push for gun control, but also expect a new front: tactical training will be banned for civilians. This motherfucker performed way too well without both marksmanship and tactical training.
Get your training, your DVDs, your weapons NOW. Buy with cash, leave out your name. Buy airsoft replicas of your weapons. Train in SECRET, you will now have enhanced scrutiny. Read "How To Start A Militia-And Get Away With It" and "Second American Revolution Victory Guide 2.0".
Don't forget: the enemy just loves a nut going off shooting random, innocent people, it drives the rest of the herd to embrace more slavery.
I also find it profound that Holmes chose the midnight premiere of The Dark Knight Rises; a movie about Batman taking on Bane, a terrorist himself. News article below:
AURORA, Colo. | Fri Jul 20, 2012 3:10pm EDT
(Reuters) - A gunman in a gas mask and body armor killed 12 people at a midnight premiere of the new "Batman" movie in a suburb of Denver early on Friday, sparking pandemonium when he hurled a gas canister into the auditorium and opened fire on moviegoers.
Armed with an assault rifle, a shotgun and a pistol, he wounded another 59 with gunfire during a screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" at a mall in the suburb of Aurora, which turned into a chaotic scene of bleeding victims, horrified screams and pleas of "I'm hit, help me," witnesses said.
The suspect, identified by police as James Eagan Holmes, 24, also booby-trapped his Aurora apartment with sophisticated explosives, creating a hazard for law-enforcement and bomb squad officers who swarmed to the scene.
Authorities evacuated five nearby buildings, and created a perimeter of several blocks.
Arriving on the scene within 90 seconds of the first emergency calls, officers immediately took the suspect into custody in the parking lot behind the cinema, where he surrendered without a fight, Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said.
The suspect was armed with an AR-15 assault rifle, a 12 gauge shotgun and a Glock .40 caliber handgun, Oates said. Police found an additional .40 gauge handgun in his car parked just outside the rear entrance to the cinema, Oates said.
Holmes is a University of Colorado medical school student who was in the process of dropping out of a graduate program in neurosciences, the university said in a statement.
His family issued a statement of sympathy for the victims and asked for privacy while they "process this information."
Holmes had only a speeding ticket on his criminal record and was dressed in black with a gas mask, ballistic helmet, vest, throat guard and crotch guard, Oates said.
The living room of the suspect's apartment was crisscrossed with trip wires connected to what appeared to be plastic bottles containing an unknown liquid, said Chris Henderson, Aurora's deputy fire chief. Authorities planned to detonate the suspected explosives with a robot, he said.
"The pictures are fairly disturbing. It looks very sophisticated, how it's booby-trapped. It could be a very long wait," Oates said.
SCENE OF BLOODY CHAOS
The gunman appeared at the front of the theater during the movie and released a canister which let out a hissing sound before gunfire erupted, police said.
"When we got out of the theater it was just chaos. There was this one guy on all fours, crawling. There was this girl spitting up blood," witness Donovan Tate told KCNC television. "There were bullet holes in some people's backs, some people's arms. There was this one guy who was stripped down to just his boxers. It looked like he was shot in the back or something. It was crazy."
Confusion reigned as shooting broke out during an action scene in the summer blockbuster, one of the more highly anticipated films of the year. The gunman may have blended in with other moviegoers who wore costumes as heroes and villains.
"He looked like he was in the military or like he was a SWAT person so he just kind of blended in with the chaos of the crowd. People thought he was probably like a cop or something," witness Jennifer Seeger told NBC's "Today."
Chandler Brannon, 25, who had been watching the movie with his girlfriend, said that about 20 minutes into the movie he saw a smoke bomb go off and heard what sounded like fireworks. He later realized they were a rapid volley of gunshots.
"I told my girlfriend to just play dead," he told Reuters. "All I could see was a silhouette."
SNIP
MEMORIES OF COLUMBINE
The shooting evoked memories of the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Littleton, also a Denver suburb and 17 miles from Aurora, where two students opened fire and killed 12 students and a teacher.
Bodies of victims remained in the theater while the investigation continued with some 200 local police, 100 FBI investigators and 25 representatives of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives on scene, officials said.
U.S. military personnel apparently were among the casualties but it was not immediately clear whether any were killed, the Defense Department said.

Mike Vanderboegh chimes in: http://sipseystreetirregulars.blogspot.com/2012/07/lesson-of-colorado-ignore-victim.html
Lesson of Colorado: Ignore Victim Disarmament Zones and pack concealed anyway.
You know, my daughters go to the movies. What if Malia and Sasha had been at the theater, as so many of our kids do every day? -- Barack Obama reacting to the "Colorado Movie Massacre."
I'll tell you what would have happened -- the Secret Service protective detail would have put several bullets through the facepiece of the moke's gas mask -- end of story. The hypocrisy of these Mandarins, who live in bodyguard envelopes whenever they venture out of their designated Green Zones, knows no bounds. One of my daughters went to another midnight showing of the same movie here in Birmingham last night. She went with her boyfriend who was packing his permitted FEG Browning Hi-Power clone, despite the fact that the theater has a "no guns" policy.
Virginia Citizens Defense League lists Cinemark Theaters (which also owns Tinseltown, Cinearts, and Century Theatres) as being victim disarmament zones upon orders of the management. If so, it was only a matter of time before something like this happened.
Of course, as I lay on the couch upstairs this morning trying to control my nausea, I watched the predictable blood dancers of the victim disarmament crowd (Bloomberg, the Brady Bunch, et. al.) who made it more difficult to hold down my breakfast (a struggle I ultimately lost).
To me, the lesson of last night is to ignore Victim Disarmament Zones and pack concealed anyway. Only you are responsible for your safety, not some risk-averse corporate drone a thousand miles away.
We will find out in time what motivated this evil prick, but the essential lesson is that only the ARMED intended victims of a mass shooting can interrupt them in time to make a difference. The same goes for government-sponsored genocides.TIMELINE: http://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/wv8t1/comprehensive_timeline_aurora_massacre/

One Moviegoer With a Gun Could Have Prevented 70 Innocent People From Being Shot
In light of the incident at the Dark Knight premier early this morning, it’s worth noting that we as a law abiding society could have prevented the deaths of, at last count, 13 people and the injuries sustained by scores of others.
Anti-gun fanatics will tell us that outlawing guns is the solution. In fact, before the smoke from the gunfire dissipated this morning special interests and politicians were already calling for more gun control. Mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg has asked our Presidential candidates to directly address the issue:
No matter where you stand on the Second Amendment, no matter where you stand on guns, we have a right to hear from both of them, concretely, not just in generalities, specifically, what are they going to do about guns?
No doubt Mr. Bloomberg (and his merry band of government nitwits) would be ecstatic if both candidates supported a Constitutional Convention to eliminate the second amendment.While Messers Obama and Romney will likely treat us to a host of platitudes regarding the issue, the fact of the matter is that prevention of such horrendous crimes falls not in the hands of the government, but of the people.Take, for example, the recent actions of a Florida man who spotted two armed robbers enter the internet cafe that he was patronizing. He just so happened to be a card carrying member of the personal responsibility club and had his weapon strapped to his belt.But they didn’t expect Samuel Williams to pull out his own weapon and fire…
The two robbers burst through the doors of the Palms Internet Cafe in Ocala and ordered everyone to get down as they waved a handgun at dozens of customers.
Via The Daily CruxWhen these thugs started waving their guns around and ordering people to the floor, Samuel Williams didn’t hesitate. He drew his weapon and opened fire. He may have saved dozens of lives by his actions.Video courtesy of Sherrie Questioning All:A witness summarizes how Williams took care of business:
This guy kept poppin’. He didn’t stop. He just kept poppin’… I think he shot both of them.
Seconds counted; the police were minutes away; Mr. Williams, not knowing what the intentions of the armed robbers were, took action.
Lives were saved, the armed robbers were wounded (unfortunately), arrested and subsequently released on bail (because that’s how government “prevents” violent crime).
The other ‘preventative’ measure put forth by a government that wants to ensure they and they alone have the right to impose their will by way of the gun would be to strip the rest of us of our right to defend ourselves. In a few days they may do just that when President Obama and Secretary Clinton join the United Nations in their never ending battle to restrict private ownership.
But, as we’ve seen countless times – in the UK, Washington D.C., and most notably in Chicago, Illinois – when you ban guns, violent crimes (gun crimes in many cases!) actually increase. Crime has gotten so bad in Chicago that we can’t even call it crime anymore. As the police gang unit in the city described it, it’s a war zone not dissimilar to what soldiers see in Iraq and Afghanistan.
At the risk of beating a dead horse, we’ll repeat the adage that when private law abiding citizens are banned from owning guns and defending themselves, only criminals will have the guns. And they will use them to indiscriminately murder innocent men, women and children.
Mayor Bloomberg wants to know what we are going to do about guns?
How will we prevent another Dark Knight rampage, or Columbine massacre or Luby’s incident?
The answer is to allow American citizens to arm themselves. An armed society is a peaceful and respectful society.
7/23 UPDATE: EVIDENCE THIS WAS YET ANOTHER MK ULTRA FALSE FLAG FOR UN GUN CONTROL TREATY
Second Operative Got Call to Open Colorado Theater Door for Shooter

According to a very coherent eyewitness in the Colorado theater where the shooting took place — a man sitting near one of the fire exits in the front row received a phone call near the beginning of the film feature.
This phone call struck the witness as odd due to the fact that the man did not leave the theater after he began to talk on the phone.
Just after the man disconnected the call he went to the fire exit and propped the exit open with his foot in some way and possiblely a shim of some type directing or waving another person toward the direction of the exit door.
According to the witness, about 15 minutes into the film the fire exit door swung open and a man about 5’9″ fully decked out in tactical clothing and heavy body armor entered the theater by throwing a canister of toxic gas into the crowd.
The fact the the shooter was not alone is now out of the bag as authorities are covering up what appears to be a massive PSYOP and/or staged operation in some type of MKULTRA fashion.
Some of the equipment and body armor used by the shooter is illegal and hard to obtain unless you are military or law enforcement.
The gear used by the shooter would have ran him tens of thousand of dollars even if he could legally obtain it. This again signifies possible military or law enforcement involvement.
Here is the CNN clip where the eyewitness admits there were at least two people involved;
