re: #88 Dark_Falcon
It’s a bad decision, to be sure. Effective anti-‘active shooter’ measures are fairly unpleasant and involve things like metal detectors and armed guards.
The problem here is that James Holmes can into the theater unarmed, propping open a one-way exit door and then using it to get back in with his murder weapons. How was the theater supposed to guard against that at a reasonable cost?
With sentries in urban camo, armed with AR-15s, spotting night-vision goggles?
