U.S. theater chain bans masks, fake guns after shooting

Soon to be followed by body scanners and metal detectors at the door. If only cinemas had an armed marshall at every film showing these things would never happen.

As long as any idiot fool in the USA can get a hold of a gun, way too much ammo, I agree with Simon, the USA will need full body scanners, metal detectors for not just movie theaters but for any public place, say football games, basketball, baseball etc..just need one idiot fool, armed to the teeth and all hell will break loose until that idiot fool is shot dead by another person, say an armed guard/police etc..but what really scares me is, this is just some stupid idiot white dude with mental problems, now take your average terrorist from say Saudi Arabia etc..that hate America, Israel, India etc..they will think at this very moment, BINGO!!! Time to mix with the good people in NYC, London, etc..and shoot up all mess of innocent folk and die as a martyr for Allah?? Or what ever idiot fool terrorists, etc..believe in. There WILL BE COPY cats, idiot loosers love this sort of FAME, just wait for copy cats to try and do one up on this idiot bastard from San Diego?? Do hope he gets a real nice welcome in prison, and then that he BURNS IN HELL!!! RIP dead innocent victims of this idiot fool bastard.

LOL, banning fake weapons. So, you can only take real weapons? Sometimes I am having problems understanding the American way of life.

Why would you even WANT to take a fake gun into the cinema? Bizarre notion in the first place.

Thought he broke in through a fire exit or was he let in? This is another feel good thing. Then again only an otaku would want to wear a costume to a movie.

@YuriOtani

Basically he went in like any normal person would, but instead of sitting down, he went to the fire exit at the far right of the movie screen, and had the door held open, then changed into his gear which was outside the fire exit, came back in and shot everyone. He carefully planned it that way.
