Skittles in hand

http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/07/20/19505917-remembering-the-aurora-shooting-victims

Had any of these people smoked weed or had trouble in school? You know, I don't recall anybody asking at the time. All had reason to be in the theater that night- the Batman movie. But, no one knows where they were going next and what they might do. Some may have had Skittles in their possession. And hoodies? In Colorado in July? Maybe but, not really likely.

I just don't recall anyone suggesting they deserved to die for any reason. The people on Foxnews or Topix didn't think about weed or academic records being grounds for the death penalty here. Odd, but in this case, they actually blamed the shooter rather than the victim!

And then there was Newton...

I don't know, Ferrerman. At first I noticed they're all white!
But, there is that glint in their eyes. Barely discernible. Did anybody stop to speculate - why were they REALLY in that theater?
Could one of them, say, the little girl, perhaps - manage to blow a raspberry at the shooter?

I saw a few of the TopixTards (TeaTards as I like to call them) express their glee at the death of a hoodie wearing, pot smoking teen who had no parental guidance and obviously no future except our welfare system. They were judge, jury and executioner in terms of what he had to offer society before he grew up, matured and possibly aspired to be more than a Mall Cop. It amazes me how people think they are capable of making decisions and able to vote for what is best for all of us, when they have such Roman Empire-like views of life & death for "lesser" folk.
