jlf1961 -> RE: PA man shot for making noise during movie (12/28/2008 4:58:03 AM)

Excuse me, but having been subjected to some seriously critical comments for an outburst that I did and actually posted about, and admittedly was well beyond rude, even to the point of being belligerent, may I make a simple observation.....
First, regardless of how loud, rude and obnoxious some one is, that gives no one else the right to shot them. (I am waiting for some gun control supporter to claim it was a justifiable action.)
If the person shot was say, a child of one of you, would you still have the same opinion?
This individual had already reacted in a hostile manner to a family watching the movie, it would have made more sense to report the problem to the usher, or manager, that is why they are there.
I would have even told the manager I wanted a full refund since I could not enjoy the movie due to the rudeness of the family.
Besides, a laser pointer in a dark theater really has a chilling effect, IF you move it slowly and deliberately. It is not illegal.
Oh, thanks to some brilliant toy manufacturer for releasing an inexpensive set of night vision goggles for kids. A little modification, such as putting them inside the housing for safety goggles, preferably with the adjustable solid band and not a strap, a few little parts from radio shack to make a nice device that makes an ominous clicking sound, like a Geiger counter, with a control that can speed it up or slow it down.....
I am not sure if they are still available, but there once was on the market a sport watch that was back let with a red light, with an on off switch and dimmer control.....
It even had a blink control for situations when you were trying to attract attention.....
A few props to make it look convincing, while remembering, never actually say you are with an agency, federal or otherwise....
People are just gullible enough to fill in the blanks.....
Paranoia is a wonderful thing, all you have to do is feed it.....
