Cinemark Theaters Was On Notice Their NO GUNS Policy was a Gun Free Killing Zone
Manasquan, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- As far back as 2009 pro gun activists had made Cinemark management aware that their NO Guns Policy was just creating a gun free zone where only the inncent and lawabiding would be unarmed.
Headquartered in Plano, TX, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. is a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry with 459 theatres and 5,181 screens in the U.S. and Latin America as of March 31, 2012, their website reports.
Cinemark owns the Century 16 movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, scene of last nights mass shooting. Cinemark doesnt allow anyone other than law enforcement officers to carry legal firearms in their theaters.
The ban hadnt escape the attention of some of Cinemarks law-abiding, gun-toting customerseven before last nights homicidal frenzy

Your earlier comment- about if someone had been there with a weapon (CCW holder), things might have turned out differently.
I had that exact conversation with my co-workers this morning... and they looked at me as though I was on drugs! (California people, dontcha' know...)
The population of Colorado is 5.2 million, and the number of Colorado CCW holders is 139,560- or 2.7%. Which means- statistically- there should have been several people able to stop that shit-bag, and in the process, save lives.
Sadly though, most CCW holders obey the wishes of organizations such as the owner of the movie chain... And this is the price for that naivete'... Senseless, and tragic.
When I get out of California, I'll renew my CCW, and again carry everywhere they don't require me to go through metal-detectors. I've done so at airports (when not actually having to go through security myself), universities, restaurants, everywhere.
As this incident demonstrates, the police are incapable of protecting us, only writing reports and hosing the blood off the sidewalk, after it's all over with. Look at the VA Tech massacre, to see how our brave "men in blue" behave, when they have the opportunity to actually do some good.
They'll cower behind walls, until the bad guy runs out of ammo, uses the last bullet on himself.
The police are fucking useless.
We're on our own, and have been for a long time... hopefully, people will start to get the picture, before more people die needlessly.
