It is an embarrassing state of affairs when an Italian American in South Philly can't afford a silencer for his gun! What is the world coming to?

Another good reason to arm everyone over the age of 21 and require them to carry heat any time they leave their homes and practice preemptive strikes against anyone who may disapprove of their actions.

Just remember, those who die winners are still dead. Shoot first, ask silly questions later.

Thank you.

I figured I'd beat the "Guns and Bitter" crowd to the punch and save them some time.

Did anyone report whether or not he was legally carrying his gun? From his actions, I'd guess it was an illegal weapon.

What possible difference could that make? He was absolutely in the wrong if he was an on-duty FBI agent.

Besides - instead of shooting a family at the movies he should have been out on the interstate smoking drivers talking on cell phones. No priorities any more.

Well, Redbox is cheaper. My only gripe is they don't have such a wide selection. I've used the service about 3 times.
I might need to renew my subscription with Blockbuster and get my DVDs through the mail. $14 bucks a month-that's less than admission to two movies. Now if you add in popcorn and drinks...I'm really saving.

It cracks me up a little that this happened during Benjamin Button. Though I understand the movie is very different, it was the most whimsical, JM Barrie-esque of all Scott's stories.

And what do we learn from this? That you shouldn't be talking during the movie! (And don't crunch too loudly on those potato chips, either). You don't know who might be sitting behind you.
