More questions to divert attention/responsibility from the shooter?

[The Colorado movie theater complex that was the scene of a gunman’s massacre this month didn’t have any uniformed security guards on duty the night of the shooting, even though other theaters operated by the same company did provide such protection for the busy premiere of the Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises."

It’s impossible to know whether guards — often off-duty police officers — at the Aurora Century 16 would have spotted the suspected gunman, ***** ******, and thwarted the attack that left 12 moviegoers dead and dozens wounded on July 20.]

100% of the blame lies with the shooter for the mayhem. However, I've always been of the opinion that if you prohibit a lawful CCW permit holder to enter the premise with their firearm, you should assume a certain level of responsibility for the security of your patrons & employees. To do any less is chickens&!t.

Well put.

At the end of the day, we are responsible for our own safety and well being.
