附录：一篇较为全面的报道 Gunman turns Batman screening into real-life“horrorfilm”
(CNN) — The man suspected of shooting up an Aurora, Colorado, movie theater screening the new Batman film early Friday, killing 12 and wounding 59, also left his apartment rigged with traps, police said.
“It’s booby trapped with various incendiary and chemical devices and trip wires,” Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said, adding that it could take days to work through the apartment safely.
Five buildings around suspect James E. Holmes’ Aurora apartment were evacuated, Oates said.
Police say Holmes, 24, dressed head-to-toe in protective tactical gear, set off two devices of some kind before spraying the theater with bullets from an AR-15 rifle, a 12-gauge shotgun and at least one of two .40-caliber handguns police recovered at the scene.
Holmes had colored his hair red and told police he was “the Joker,” according to a federal law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation. Police have not yet released Holmes’ mug shot.
A law enforcement source said the weapons were purchased legally at sporting goods stores in the Denver area over the past six months.
Oates said investigators are “confident” that Holmes acted alone.
The shooting unfolded inside a darkened theater packed with Batman fans, some in costume for the premiere of the movie “The Dark Knight Rises.” Screaming, panicked moviegoers scrambled to escape from the black-clad gunman, who wore a gas mask and randomly shot as he walked up the theater’s steps, witnesses said.
It was a scene “straight out of a horror film,” said Chris Ramos, who was inside the theater.
“He was just literally shooting everyone, like hunting season,” Ramos said.
The gunman went to the rear door of Century 16 theater and propped it open, then tossed in a canister before starting to shoot, according to a federal law enforcement source involved in the investigation.
A federal law enforcement official told CNN the man used tear gas, but Oates said Friday afternoon that it was not clear what the substance was.
Holmes surrendered without resistance within seven minutes of the first calls from panicked moviegoers reporting the shooting, Oates said. He is scheduled to appear in court on Monday, court officials said.
Police officers swarming to the theater encountered bloody, groaning victims streaming out of the complex. Others remained inside, many with gruesome injuries, according to recordings of emergency calls with dispatchers.
Victims flooded overwhelmed hospitals. One of the injured is just 4 months old, the child’s mother said. The infant was treated and released from the hospital.
“I don’t know how else to explain it. It’s horrific,” said Tracy Lauzon, director of EMS and trauma services at Aurora Medical Center.
Oates said the man was wearing a ballistic helmet and protective gear for his legs, throat and groin, black gloves and a gas mask.
Jennifer Seeger, who survived the attack, said she had seen the man and thought his get-up was part of the entertainment for the film’s debut.
She said the man first shot toward the ceiling, then began shooting at people. He reloaded during his attack, she said.
“He was just literally just massacring anybody that got up that was trying to run away,” Seeger said.
Holmes is scheduled to appear in an Arapahoe County, Colorado, courtroom Monday morning, Rob McCallum, spokesman for the Colorado Judicial Department, said Friday. The court file was sealed, according to a court order.
A statement from Holmes’ family in San Diego asked for “privacy during this difficult time.”
“Our hearts go out to those who were involved in this tragedy and to the families and friends of those involved,” the statement said, adding, “We are still trying to process this information.”
The FBI is assisting in the investigation, officials said.
FBI officials said it did not appear the incident was related to terrorism.
Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said the attack was the work of a “very deranged mind.”
“Obviously no words can express the intensity of this tragedy,” he said.
President Barack Obama canceled campaign events Friday, telling supporters at what had been scheduled as a rally in Fort Myers, Florida, that “there will be other days for politics.”
“This will be a day for prayer and reflection,” he said, calling for the country to unite as one and support the victims.
“Such violence, such evil is senseless. It is beyond reason,” he said before ending the event to return to Washington.
Flags at the White House were lowered to half-staff Friday afternoon in honor of the victims.
CNN iReporter Adam Witt, who was in the theater, said it took a few gunshots before he figured out what was going on.
“I hit the floor and hid behind the seats in front of me, pulling my wife down to hide with me,” Witt said. “It was the longest minute of my life. The gunshots just kept coming. I knew it could be over any second. I knew my wife could be gone any second. It was absolutely surreal. I felt something hit my left arm, and my first thought was, ‘At least it’s just my arm.’”
“There were so many people running,” he said. “I didn’t look back. I just remember getting up from the floor and shouting, ‘We have to run.’”
Witt said he held his wife’s hand as they rushed out of the theater.
“There was a moment where I lost her hand, but I grabbed her shirt,” he said. “We didn’t let go of each other.”
Quentin Caldwell, who was attending a screening in the adjacent theater, said he wasn’t sure at first what was going on when he heard a “pop, pop, pop, pop” sound.
“We really didn’t know something was happening until someone came from the left entrance and said we should not go outside because somebody with a gun was out there,” he said.
Armed guards appeared at the theater exit and demanded audience members raise their arms to ensure they were not carrying weapons, then told them to run, Caldwell said.
Officers rushed many of the wounded to hospitals in their patrol cars.
Police initially said 14 people had died — 10 in the theater and four at area hospitals — but revised the death toll to 12 later Friday morning, according to Aurora Police Lt. Jad Lanigan. The initial injury count of 38 was revised upward to 59 Friday afternoon.
Several people remained in critical condition at hospitals.
It may take hours or even days to clear Holmes’ apartment, Oates said.
Investigators looking into a window with a camera have seen a sophisticated booby-trap with trip wires connecting incendiary and chemical devices, he said.
Oates said he has never seen anything like it.
A woman who lives across the street from the suspect’s apartment said police evacuated her building around 4 a.m.
“They told us there was a bomb or bomb material located in the house across the street from us.” Rebecca Bradshaw said.
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents were involved in the apartment search, agency spokesman Tom Mangan said.
In addition to looking into the possibility of explosives, ATF agents are conducting emergency traces on the weapons to see how they were obtained, Mangan said.
A law enforcement source said two of the guns were purchased at a Bass Pro Shop in Denver, while the two others were bought at separate Gander Mountain Guns outlets in the area. Investigators also found a drum magazine, capable of carrying 100 rounds of ammunition, which was attached to the AR-15 rifle, two law enforcement officials said.
Authorities also searched the suspect’s car in the parking lot of the movie theater.
Warner Bros., the studio behind the movie, said the company and filmmakers were “deeply saddened” to learn of the incident. The studio canceled the movie’s Paris premiere, while New York police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said his officers would watch over screenings of “The Dark Knight” in the city to prevent copycat shootings.
Aurora, a Denver suburb, is about 13 miles from Littleton, Colorado — site of the April 1999 Columbine High School massacre.
In that incident, two teenage students, Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris, armed themselves with guns and bombs and shot people inside the high school. They killed 13 and wounded 23 before killing themselves.

以下是对疑凶詹姆士背景报道较为详细的一篇文章。
A closer look at Aurora shooting suspect James Holmes
奥罗拉枪击案疑凶詹姆士·霍尔姆斯浅析
AURORA, COLO.— The man suspected of shooting 71 people in a sold-out movie theater was a neuroscience graduate student who decked himself out in full-body armor for the attack.
科罗拉多，奥罗拉 - 在一个电影票售罄的电影院里枪击71人的嫌疑人是一位神经科学的研究生，发动攻击时他全副武装。
James Eagan Holmes, 24, legally bought the four weapons he used. Holmes opened fire in a suburban Denver theater with four sold-out showings of the premiere of the Batman movie “Dark Knight Rises.”
詹姆士·伊根·霍尔姆斯，24岁，他所使用的四件武器都是合法购买的。霍尔姆斯在丹佛郊区的一座电影院里开枪，电影院的四个小厅里正在进行《蝙蝠侠前传 - 3》-“黑暗骑士的崛起”的首映，电影票早已售罄。
There is no confirmed evidence so far that the motives of the assailant in the Aurora, Colo., killings on Friday had any specific link to “The Dark Knight Rises.” New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said he was told the gunman had painted his hair red and called himself the Joker, but Aurora police would not confirm that.
“至今尚未明显确凿的证据证明上周五在科罗拉多州奥罗拉市枪击案疑凶的动机与电影“黑暗骑士的崛起”有任何特殊的关联”，纽约市警察局长雷·凯利说，他被告知枪手将头发染成红色并将自己称为乔克（小丑，Joker），但是，奥罗拉警方尚未对此确认。
译注：乔克（小丑，Joker）是蝙蝠侠系列电影里的一个虚构的角色。参见下面维基百科中的注解：
小丑（英语：Joker），是蝙蝠侠漫画系列中的一个主要反派角色。他也直接地造成蝙蝠侠人生中的一些悲剧，例如，芭芭拉·戈登（Barbara Gordon，蝙蝠女）的瘫痪、贾森·托德（Jason Todd，第二代罗宾）的死亡。小丑这个角色是由杰里·罗宾森，比尔·费格和鲍勃·凯恩（Jerry Robinson，Bill Finger and Bob Kane）所共同创造的。第一次登场是在蝙蝠侠（Batman）杂志的第一期（1940年春季）。 小丑本来是一位喜剧演员，因为丢失了工作，同时妻子也生下了小孩，走投无路而偷袭化学工厂。后因蝙蝠侠出面阻止而不小心跌入化学池内。虽然幸存了下来，但是身体与脸产生了化学变化，眼睛头发变为绿色。妻子最后死亡，使得小丑也疯了，成为了恐怖的犯罪者。
Police say he threw tear gas into the crowd to disorient moviegoers.
警方说：他向人群中投掷催泪瓦斯，使看电影的观众迷失方向。
Authorities are still piecing together how the young man from San Diego went from the study of human genes to suspected mass murderer.
当局正在拼凑各方面收集的证据，力图找出来自于圣迭研究人类基因的学生为什么会沦为这场大屠杀凶手的嫌疑人。
He was in the process of dropping out of the neuroscience department, according to the University of Colorado, where he enrolled last June as a graduate student.
据科罗拉多大学的说法，他正在办理退出神经科学系博士生的手续，他是去年六月才入学的研究生。
“He was in some of the research towers,” said Dan Meyers, communications director for the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Holmes was not in the medical school, but worked in research facilities on the campus.
据科罗拉多大学医学院的联络主管丹·梅尔斯称：“他曾经在某栋研究大楼里工作”。霍尔姆斯现在已经不再上学，但仍旧为校园里的研究部门工作。
Meyers would not say if any particular event led to Holmes’ withdrawal. He said Holmes “voluntarily left that program in June 2012. He was in the process of completing withdrawal.”
梅尔斯不愿说是否有什么特殊的缘故导致霍尔姆斯退出博士生的学业，他只是说，霍尔姆斯在2012年6月自愿退出自己的博士生课程。事发前，霍尔姆斯正处在办理退学的过程中。
He said Holmes’ access to the facilities was terminated and his entry cards were confiscated.
他说：“霍尔姆斯进入校园的许可已经被中止，他的出入证已经被收回”。
However, the university still evacuated three research buildings on the campus Friday afternoon where Holmes may have worked.
即便这样，大学当局依然对三栋霍尔姆斯曾经工作过的研究大楼进行了疏散清场工作。
“We want to make sure everything is safe for our people,” university spokeswoman Erika Matich said.
科罗拉多大学的女发言人艾丽卡·马迪齐称：“我们想确保一切对我们人员都是安全的”。
A federal law enforcement official said the four weapons police found when they arrested Holmes behind the movie theater were purchased within the past six months at Denver and Aurora-area gun shops. Police said he used an AR 15 assault rifle, a Remington shotgun and a 40-caliber Glock handgun during the attack. Police found the weapons and another 40-caliber Glock in Holmes’ white Hyundai when they arrested him, said Aurora Chief Dan Oates.
一位联邦执法官员说，在影院后面逮捕霍尔姆斯时警察发现的四件武器都是在以往六个月内在丹佛及奥罗拉地区枪店里购买的。警察说凶手发起攻击时使用了一支AR15突击步枪，一支雷明顿猎枪和一支40口径的格鲁克手枪。在逮捕霍尔姆斯时，警察在一辆白色的现代排轿车上发现了这三件武器和另一支40口径的格鲁克手枪，奥罗拉警察局长丹·奥茨如是说。
The assault rifle was traced to a Gander Mountain gun store in Thornton, Colo., the Remington shotgun and one of the Glock handguns were bought at a Bass Pro Shop in Denver, and the second Glock handgun was purchased at Gander Mountain store in Aurora.
那只突击步枪已经查明购自于科罗拉多州桑顿（Thornton）一家名字叫甘德山（Gander Mountain） 的商店，雷明顿猎枪以及一支格鲁克手枪购自于丹佛的佩斯普鲁商店（Bass Pro Shops），而是第二支格鲁克手枪则购自于奥罗拉当地的的甘德山商店。
詹姆士·霍尔姆斯使用的三种枪支。

Holmes bought the weapons in May, June and July, the federal law enforcement official said, adding that investigators have recovered at least one video from a store security camera recording the purchase.
“霍尔姆斯在今年5月、6月和7月购置了这些武器”，联邦执法官员说：“此外，案件的调查官员从枪店的安全监控录像里至少已经复原了一段记录购枪过程的录像”。
The federal law enforcement official, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said a cache of ammunition was recovered in the suspect’s car, and used magazines were found discarded in the movie theater where the assaults took place.
未经授权公开谈论此事的一位联邦执法官员说：“在嫌疑人的汽车里发现了一处隐藏弹药的地方，在电影院枪击现场还发现了一本嫌犯丢弃的杂志”。
At Holmes’ apartment in a student-housing complex in northern Aurora, police are still working their way inside the booby-trapped unit.
在学生居住区里的霍尔姆斯公寓里，警察依旧在从事排除诱发爆炸装置的工作。
“We have an active and difficult scene there,” Oates said during an afternoon press conference outside of the theater. He said the apartment has been booby-trapped with various devices and trip wires.
下午在电影院外召开的新闻发布会上，奥罗拉的警察局长奥茨说：“公寓现场的活既敏感而且有点儿难度；霍尔姆斯的公寓里布上了各种各样的诱发性爆炸装置以及触发爆炸的拉发线”。
Biology student Kaitlyn Fonzi, who lives below Holmes, says loud techno music began playing in his apartment promptly at midnight.
住在霍尔姆斯楼下的生物学学生凯特琳·福兹说：“在午夜时分，霍尔姆斯的公寓里立即响起了恼人的铁克诺音乐声”。
译注：techno music是指一种电子音乐，有时还可称为“高科技音乐”，发源于80年代中晚期的密歇根州特津市，是一种现代音乐形式，广泛流行于美国。
Against the advice of her boyfriend, Fonzi says she went up and banged on the door but no one answered. She said she called police to report the loud music, which was playing on a loop and stopped at exactly 1 a.m., she says.
福茨说，她没听从她男朋友的劝告，径直走到楼上去敲霍尔姆斯的门，但里面没有人回应。她说她打电话向警察署报告这恼人的音乐，这种音乐周而复始一直闹到凌晨一点。
Fonzi says they went to sleep but were woken up by a SWAT team breaking down doors and ordering everyone out around 2 a.m.
福茨说他们后来去睡觉了，直至凌晨两点左右被特警部队破门而入而闹醒，特警命令他们所有人立即撤出居住的公寓楼。
Fonzi says she’s seen Holmes around few times, and that he looks like any other student on the medical and academic campus across the street from their apartment.
福茨说，她曾经多次在附近见到过霍尔姆斯，他看上去与他们公寓楼街对面医学院以及大学校园里的其他学生一样
“You never really think anything like this is going to happen,” Fonzi says while standing outside her cordoned-off building, still in her pajamas.
站在被警戒线封锁的宿舍楼外，依然穿着睡衣的福茨说：“您根本想不到会发生这样的事情”。
Holmes was not on the radar of any law enforcement agency. He had no previous contact with the Aurora police department, save for a traffic summons for speeding in 2011, Oates said. Holmes will have a preliminary court appearance on Monday.
“霍尔姆斯从来就没有在任何执法部门的视线以内，以前从来没有与奥罗拉的警察局打过交道，2011年霍尔姆斯曾收到过一张开车超速的传票”，当地警察局长奥茨说：“周一，霍尔姆斯将出现在初审法庭上”。
Holmes graduated with honors in the spring of 2010 with a B.S. in neuroscience from the University of California-Riverside. He graduated from Westview High School in San Diego in 2006.
霍尔姆斯2011年春以优异的成绩毕业于加州大学河畔分校，获得神经科学学士学位。2006年毕业于圣迭戈西景（Westview）高中。
In San Diego, a woman who was contacted by ABC News told reporters she was Holmes’ mother. She said she had awoken unaware of the shooting and had not yet been contacted by authorities, but immediately expressed concern to ABC that her son may have been involved.
在圣迭戈，一位与ABC新闻联系的妇女告诉记者说，她是霍尔姆斯的母亲。她说她被这桩不期而遇的枪击事件惊醒，虽然至今尚未与当局联系，但立即向ABC新闻表示对此关切，事件的疑凶可能是他的儿子。
“You have the right person,” she said. “I need to call the police. … I need to fly out to Colorado.”
“你们找对了人”，她说，“我需要给警察打电话，.....，我需要立即飞往科罗拉多”。
The woman is identified in public searches as Arlene Holmes. The family lives in a two-story house that was assessed at $398,000 in 2000.
通过公共搜索得知这位妇女是阿琳·霍尔姆斯。他们家住在一栋两层楼的住宅里，该房屋2000年的估价为三十九万八千美元。
The family released a statement through the San Diego police that reads: “Our hearts go out to those who were involved in this tragedy, and to the families and friends of those involved,” the statement said. “We ask that the media respects our privacy during this difficult time. Our family is cooperating with authorities in both San Diego, Calif., and Aurora, Colo. We are still trying to process this information and we appreciate that people will respect our privacy.”
通过圣迭戈警察当局霍尔姆斯家发表了一个声明：“我们的心飞往蒙受这场灾难的人们，飞往他们的家庭和朋友”。声明称：“在此艰难时刻，我们祈求媒体能尊重我们的隐私，我们家庭将与加州圣迭戈警察当局以及科罗拉多州奥罗拉警察当局合作。我们依旧在试图消化这个突如其来的消息，我们期望人们能尊重我们的隐私”。
A neighbor in the upper-middle-class neighborhood where the family lives describes him as a “quiet young man,” according to the North County Times.
据当地的“北郡时报”（North County Times）报道，霍尔姆斯家庭居住的一个中产阶级偏上的街区里，一位邻居描述说，霍尔姆斯是一位“非常安静的年轻人”。
Neighbor Tom Mai, 61, told the newspaper that he had lived next door to the Holmes family for years and was friendly with them. He said James Holmes had a degree in neuroscience from a University of California school. He said James Holmes’ mother told him that James had been unable to find a job, so she sent him to a school in Colorado to earn an advanced degree.
61岁的邻居汤姆·梅告诉记者，他多年住在霍尔姆斯家的隔壁和他家处得很好。他说，詹姆士·霍尔姆斯在加州大学医学院得到了神经科学的学士学位。他说，詹姆士的母亲告诉他，詹姆士一直找不到一份工作，为此她将詹姆士送到科罗拉多大学的医学院，以便得到更高的学位。
Mai told the newspaper Holmes was a “typical American kid,” who “kept to himself,” and “didn’t seem to have many friends.”
梅告诉记者：“詹姆士·霍尔姆斯是一个典型的美国孩子，但有点儿自闭，似乎没有许多朋友”。
Police believe Holmes acted alone.
警察相信詹姆士·霍尔姆斯是一个人作案的。
“Lone-wolf terrorists are extremely intelligent and often come from very good socio-economic backgrounds,” said Todd McGhee, a former Massachusetts state trooper who is now managing partner of Protecting the Homeland Innovations, a security training firm in Braintree, Mass.
“孤狼型的恐怖分子通常的极聪明的，而且常常出自于社会-经济背景极好的家庭”，前马萨诸塞州骑警托德·麦克基说；他现在是“保护国土创新公司的全权合伙人，这是一家位于马萨诸塞州布伦特里（Braintree, Mass）的安保培训机构。
“But they become despondent. They become isolated from family members. Then they grab on to an ideology. Some people find religion. Some people find anti-government,” he said.
“他们会变得沮丧，会变得与家庭成员格格不入。然后他们会抓住某种意识形态。有些人会笃信宗教，有些人会会找到反政府的理念”，托德麦克基说。
There is no doubt the accused shooter knew the theater well, McGhee said.
麦克基继续说：“显然这位枪手非常熟悉影院的情况”。
“He had a level of comfort to walk in to the theater. He had been there before. He knew the layout.”
“他舒舒服服地步入电影院。他以前来过这里。他熟悉这里的平面布局”。
“He planned his attack well enough to create what is called “a fatal funnel.” When people hunker down to avoid bullets, he throws the tear gas to flush them out and shoots them when they do.
“他对这次攻击做了充分的计划，以便制造出所谓的“一个致命的陷阱”。当人们匍匐在地上躲避子弹的时候，他投掷出催泪瓦斯罐，迫使他们外逃，而就在人们外逃的之时，他便开枪射杀”。
But, he said, Holmes took his attack one step further.
麦克基说：“但是，詹姆士·霍尔姆斯的还有进一步的杀人计划”。
“His mission wasn’t to end it right there at the movie theater,” McGhee says. “There was a part B to this attack.”
“他的杀人计划并不以电影院的攻击而终止”，麦克基说，“攻击还有第二步”。
Part B was the booby-trapped apartment.
“这个第二步就是装置在他公寓里的诱杀炸弹”。
“He can see what he was a part of,” McGhee said. “He can view the response. This is what his claim to fame would be.”
麦克基说：“他可以亲眼目睹亲手执行的一部分，还可以了解接下来的反映；这就是他想由此声名鹊起的设想。

更有“一段尴尬的因缘”，奥罗拉的一个男子吉米·罗尔斯（Jamie Rohrs）带着女友佩特里西亚·里格莱特（Patricia Legarrate）、自己的儿子和女友的女儿一同去电影院。枪击事件发生之后，吉米棄女友佩特里西亚及她四岁的女儿不顾，抱着四个月大的儿子伊桑逃出影院，驾车而去。此时，一位19岁的大学生贾雷尔·布洛克斯（Jarell Brooks）挺身而出，帮助佩特里西亚和孩子逃出影院。佩特里亚及女儿几乎安然无恙，佩特里西亚脚上被弹片擦伤，掩护她们的贾雷尔却腿上中枪。
事后，怯懦的吉米来到医院看望佩特里西亚并公开向她求婚，他说：“虽然我知道这不是说这话的时刻，但我还是要向您求婚”。而佩特里西亚居然说了“Yes”！为此，美国网站上乱作一片，网友们都说：“对于这个在危急时刻连女友和她的孩子也不顾的人，佩特里西亚怎能答应他的求婚？如何能与一个将她棄于死地而不顾的男人结婚？”
译注：也有不同的报道，有报道说：事发时他抱着四个月的儿子伊桑，他立即抱着儿子翻越影院里的座椅逃出，到停车场后打911电话报警，惊慌中开车逃出停车场，后又返回寻找佩特里西亚和他的女儿。假如他和佩特里西亚是同居关系，伊桑又是他俩的孩子；对于一位没见过这样场面的普通男子而言，到底先救谁这是一个两难的问题。为此，佩特里西亚有可能原谅他，这也是情有可原的事情。求婚大约是吉米的一种道歉和自我谴责的行为。

奥罗拉枪击案后随之发生的五个恐怖后果
枪支销售旺盛、针对华纳兄弟公司的诉讼、一位未遂的枪击案模仿者，这场大屠杀的后果已经令人十分惊讶，常常令人烦恼，并不断地蔓延展开。
2012年7月25日，11:45。

As victims of the shootings in Aurora, Colorado continue to grapplewith injuries and trauma, and more details leak about the alleged shooter James Holmes (who hasreportedlyexhibitedodd behavior in jail, spitting at officers so often they've slapped a face guard on him), people in Colorado and around the country have responded to the massacre in surprising, sometimes distressing ways. From stocking up on guns to filing lawsuits against the theater where the shootings took place, here are 5 consequences of the shootings:
随着科罗拉多，奥罗拉枪击案的受害人继续与伤病及精神创伤搏斗，更多有关枪杀案疑凶詹姆士·霍尔姆斯的详细情况逐渐披露出来（据报道他在监狱里表现出稀奇古怪的行为，常常将吐沫吐到警官的脸上，以至警官不得不给他戴上面罩）。科罗拉多以及周围地区的人们开始对这场出其不意的大屠杀做出反应，有时是以悲伤及痛苦的方式。从购买囤积枪支到向立案诉讼案发地电影院，下面就是这场枪击案后随之产生的五个后果：
1. Gun sales in Colorado have soared
Despite new condemnation of America's lax gun laws, which allowed the shooter to amass a veritable arsenal of weapons and ammunition, gun sales shot up in Colorado in the days after the massacre, with background checks up 41 percent. "Firearms instructors say they're also seeing increased interest in the training required for a concealed-carry permit,"says Sarah Burnett atThe Denver Post."A lot of it is people saying, 'I didn't think I needed a gun, but now I do," Jake Meyers, a gun store employee, tells Burnett. "When it happens in your backyard, people start reassessing... 'Hey, I go to the movies.'"
2. An alleged copycat killer has emerged
Police in Maine say they arrested a man on Sunday who claims to have attended a screening ofThe Dark Knight Riseswith a loaded gun. The suspect, Timothy Courtois, was pulled over for speeding, and cops found "four handguns, an AK-47 assault weapon, ammunition, and articles about the Batman massacre in Colorado,"says David Moye atThe Huffington Post. Courtois allegedly told police that he was on his way to Derry, N.H., to murder his boss, and that he had attended the movie the previous night with a gun in his backpack. Charged with having a concealed weapon, among other charges, Courtois is being held in the York County Jail on a $50,000 cash bail and hasreportedlymade repeated requests for marijuana and Chinese food.
3. A lawsuit is filed against the Aurora theater
Torrence Brown Jr., who was in the crowd when the shootings occurred, is suing Aurora's Century 16 theater for failing to equip the emergency exits with alarms or guards. While Brown sustained no injuries himself, his friend was killed, and he claims he has since developed extreme trauma. Brown is also suing Warner Bros., "claiming thatThe Dark Knight Riseswas so violent that it delayed the reaction of many moviegoers who thought the shooting was a promotional stunt,"says Neetzan Zimmerman atGawker. Rounding out the suits, Brown is suing Holmes' doctors for failing to treat the suspected killer's "as-yet-unconfirmed medical condition." Brown's lawyer says someone has to be held responsible for the "rampant violence" that took place.
4. Facebook tributes to Holmes are proliferating
In the aftermath of the shootings, "there's been a disgusting rise in Facebook fan pages paying tribute" to Holmes,says Erin Sherbert atSF Weekly. One page shows a doctored image of Holmes as a decorated soldier receiving a medal from President Obama, while another is written from the alleged killer's perspective. While Facebookers are mostly ignoring these tribute pages, says Sherbert, at least one is "collecting a disgusting number of 'likes.'"
5. Theater stocks are dropping
"Movie-theater stocks have tumbled more than the broader markets" since the shootings,says Paul Bond atThe Hollywood Reporter. Investors are not primarily concerned with repeat incidents, but rather with reports that theater owners areconsideringramping up their security efforts, which could bump up ticket prices and hamper profits.The Dark Knight Rises,however, still managed tobreakthe weekend box-office record for traditional 2-D movies.
