20 people shot at Batman midnight screening.

Interesting how he gave himself up in the parking lot; usually mass shooting goofs don't allow themselves to be captured alive.

Well, in Dark Knight Joker allowed himself to be captured as well.

EDIT: Watching the video here. The youngest at the Children's hospital is 6.

6 year-olds definitely shouldn't be watching midnight screenings.

Liberal parents. Serves them right.

Apparently, there was a 3 month year old there.

I'm watching the CNN and Fox News coverage. Already, some of the commentators are talking about violent video games and movies and how they probably influenced the shooter.

One last thought: You know some slimy Hollywood execs are pissed because this incident will scare some people from going to showings this weekend and therefore the movie won't set the new record for highest weekend opening gross.

This is what happens when a society tolerates a lack of affordable day care.

Is midnight considered day in Maryland?

Naturally you would play semantics with such a critical topic.

Only an asshole would bring a baby to a movie.

Looks like the assailant was a mall-ninja type, given all the tactical gear he was wearing.

I think it is okay for our society not to provide care at midnight so that parents can hang out at a late night movie.

3 month old baby is the youngest victim, in fair condition.

Dude used tear gas. How hard is that to get for civilians.

Easy enough for one asshole to get a hold of a canister every now & then.  When I was in college some jerk dropped one in a crowded night club I was in.  People on the first floor panicked and some were trampled.  People on the second floor broke out windows and I think a couple even jumped out.

I saw a baby get hit by a foul ball at a Reds game one time.  I wondered who the hell wants to bring a baby to a baseball game, particularly on one of the hotter days in August.

Well, on the bright side, this might make it easier to get in to see TDKR this weekend.

Breivik in Norway gave himself up.
