Dear people posting about the shooting in Colorado:

Just because you went to see a movie last night in a place far away from where these people were murdered, it doesn't mean you dodged a bullet.

There's no cosmic connection between you because you payed $15 to watch a movie at midnight.

"That could have been me," I heard from one idiot.

Well, yea, and you could also choke on something at lunch or get hit by a bus.

Stop living vicariously through the tragedy of others.

I am starting to see more people post about the shooting, but MikeSRice is right. People care more about their lame, mundane lives then a national tragedy knowing ANY one of them could have been in that theater. In the grand scheme of things, those lil bullshit comments they post about their lives means nothing. Life is short. Look around you, be aware, mind your surroundings. The world is NOT a safe place.

Things like this could happen anytime, anywhere. Whatever film it was during makes no difference whatsoever, except that maybe this person knew that it would be a sell-out screening, so more people to shoot, perhaps?

I remember when 9/11 happened, loads of people would go on to say that they were only in one of the buildings like two weeks ago. So fucking what?! Millions of people visited that place every week.

This was no 'brush with death' on both counts!
