Wow, get a grip. The FBI agent was discussing the type of bomb tear gas he might have used, and they were going through all the options. The most likely thing was that he made his own pipe bomb, and just used mace canisters. The exact weapons are not known, but it is known that explosives were used.
So kindly, get off my ass. I have been following this more than anyone here since it started and you new people barge in and try to tell me how things went...
From the beginning of this topic there were three ATS members who were all making jokes about this mass murder, and they were making meme joke images with a meme image generator, which were were taken down by moderators. The member "SilentKoala", "Kastogere", and "IpsissimusMagus" were the ones making the meme images. I wouldn't be surprised if one of them made the 9gag rumor / image. They were disrespectful and disgusting human beings in the beginning of this topic.

You're entirely wrong .. a friend of mine's cousin was wounded in this attack, and her boyfriend killed.. this is not a staged event.

Every theatre I've been in for a big release, or a special viewing had people stationed at every entrance AND exit. It is so extremely common for people to go let their buddy in the back exit, and the theatres know this. Most of the time it isn't worth the extra payroll to man the doors, but for a big release, and midnight showing, they should have had someone either stationed at the door, or at least walking around and checking the doors every so often and keeping an eye on them.

I need to get a grip? Youre the one speculating and telling everyone else they are wrong, even AFTER we know that YOUR reports come from a SCANNER , and not from post incident reports that INCLUDE inspection of bodies and hospital reports.......

I am a resident of Columbine in Littleton, CO. I call a staged event with this shooting.
I watched her "brother" on channel 9 news and he seemed to be acting.
Look at this blog he supposedly made.
www.jordanghawi.com...
How on Earth did a grieving man have time to fly from San Antonio to Denver, go to the crime scene and be on the Channel 9 News AND write a blog about his sister?
I think this whole thing is staged in order to instill more fear in us. Next we will have to go through metal detectors and a pat down to go to a flippin' movie.

So if it WAS a staged event, that means no one would have been hurt?
That's nonsense.
The bullets weren't fake, obviously.
Anything else beyond that is up for speculation...

And were suppose to trust your judgement?

If I may, perhaps your friends cousin was indeed there and indeed wounded, the thing is... Holmes could have been shooting to wound and the 12 dead could be fake I.e. plants, yet through the chaos of the whole scene, the authorities staged the deaths. Real event, just designed to be a mass wounding spree colored as a killing spree, achieves same effect but saves lives but still is portrayed as real.

Seeing as how this thread as swelled with 50+ pages of conjecture and off topic argument, someone should make a big post about the FACTS, and everyone not reporting facts needs to go start a thread about gun control or opinions or w/e and stop cluttering up the thread with crap.
I seriously hate having to scroll through 5-10 pages to find an on topic post.

What are you talking about. My reports came directly from the Police Cheif, law enforcment, media, etc. I've been watching this like a hawk, and even reporting things before it was even on the news.

Good points.
I suppose we all feel a little helpless in hindsight. Surely there must have been SOMETHING that SOMEONE could have done differently right? Or is this type of thing just impossible to predict or prevent or counteract?
Its hypothetical, but I think that is why I, and many others keep tossing out suggestions. It is difficult to believe the people in that theatre, and the theatre itself, and the families, and the police, and the roommates, and the neighbors all did just what we are supposed to do, and yet this tragedy still happened.
