Though the link is to foxnews, the story is from the associated press. It appears there may be more to this story than was originally reported.

Lomax, 31, told the judge he was at the movie with his girlfriend and her three teenagers, enjoying the film and laughing, when a man in front of him — not Cialella — told him to quiet down.
"We can't laugh?" Lomax recalled asking.
A second man threw popcorn at the family, and a brawl ensued. Lomax said he was fighting with the first man when the second man pulled out a gun and fired, striking him in the left arm.
A defense lawyer argued that Cialella was being choked and punched as he tried to break up the fight and fired in self-defense.

"He's a marksman," lawyer Greg Pagano said. "If he wanted to shoot to kill, he would have."
Cialella spent five months in Iraq with the Army before being honorably discharged in September, Pagano said.

I wish that they would do a "REPLAY" of this before every feature film so that the ppl with children, obnoxious teens and ppl with cellphones would respect everbody else by being quiet.
