My take. Frankly this country has too many angry people walking around just itching for an excuse to unload.

There really isn't anything to hear, so why get bent out of shape about it.

I mean as long as the sound is turned off on the phone.

Now people who leave their phones on so that they ring, or that talk on them in the Theater, they should be thrown out.

The light is a little bothersome but can be easily ignored. However the main point is, the movie hadn't started.

The issue is a former SWAT man trying to look cool in front of his wife who was, appropriately, blown off by theater management because he possessed no authority.

He just couldn't take it and murdered a guy texting his daughter before the movie.

Probably also has a lot of pent up rage due to Obama being president.

From what I see on the internet there are a lot of angry white male conservatives out there in the same state of mind.

Ready to blow like Krakatoa at the drop of a hat and willing to drop the hat themselves.

I have to be very careful about how I question this...

Especially in his second term, I couldn't stand GWB as President but I didn't desire to shoot him or anyone else.

What is it with terrified, middle aged, white men that makes them all turn into Micheal Douglas's character in Falling Down if/when they don't get their way?

That might be worthy of its own thread...

Me too.

I want to shoot the son of a bitch that stole my Obama sign out of my front yard.

That wasn't you was it?

LOL! Nah, no need to take them. The new plastic ones burn easy where they sit, with a little lighter fluid

Gives me a GREAT idear though, next election I'll get bumper stickers for the GOP candidate, then go through my preppy neighborhood and stick them to all the Priuses lmao

Sure you will. If you're so rough and tough, why don't you try that in the 'hood?
