Why should they be held responsible? They didn't shoot anybody. Would you have every store, every theatre, every restaurant, have metal detectors at the door? Search everyone that comes in? How is it you feel the theatre is responsible?

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.

I don't want to sound like a nut job, as I'm not, but believe me, if Colorado was a right to carry state as Texas is, five or ten people in the crowd would have ventilated that boy as soon as he started shooting. And THAT would have saved numerous lives and prevented injuries. Right to carry really is a very very good law. Think about that next time someone starts talking about gun control laws. Because the only people those laws affect are legal owners of firearms. Any criminal or nutbag who wants to get a gun WILL get a gun. They generally don't go through legal channels anyway. But all their victims will be unarmed.

The fault lies with the shooter, no one else.  Speaking for myself, I would not appreciate being searched before going into a theater; it's bad enough we do it for schools, hospitals and airports.
