A clever Twitter follower of mine alerted me to this sad fact that few in the mainstream media will recognize – the theater where the horrible shooting happened tonight was a “gun free zone”:

I went to their website and found he was right:
OUR THEATRE PROHIBITS
• Outside food or drink
• Smoking including e-cigarettes
• Possession of firearms or weapons of any kind regardless of whether openly orconcealed, with or without a permit
We should all refuse to call it a “mass shooting” tomorrow, and instead call it a “gun free zone shooting.”
