suspect James Holmes

Twelve people were killed and 59 were injured in Aurora, Colo., during a sold-out midnight premier of the new Batman movie "The Dark Knight Rises" when 24-year-old James Holmes allegedly unloaded four weapons' full of ammunition into the unsuspecting crowd.


The number of casualties makes the incident the largest mass shooting in U.S. history.


Holmes, a graduate student at a nearby college with a clean arrest record, allegedly entered the movie auditorium wearing a ballistics helmet, bullet-proof vest, bullet-proof leggings, gas mask and gloves. He detonated multiple smoke bombs, and then began firing at viewers in the sold-out auditorium, police said today.

Now they're shooting people in movie theaters. A man in Aurora, Colo., walked through the midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises and -- at the time I write this -- reportedly killed 12 people and wounded 50.

While a gunman walking through a theater killing people is a big stretch from some of the problems faced these days, violence is growing at theaters. 

I've been to a dozen screenings -- those freebie flicks the studios do to gauge moviegoer reaction -- where fights have broken out, or where drunk or drugged-up attendees begin screaming at the screen or those next to them. One night, I was nearly assaulted by a very drunk man who would not shut up then threatened to seriously harm me for turning around and asking him to be quiet.
