He certainly is a weedy-looking doofus with his clothes on, but yeah, I don’t know anything about his dick.

Does she actually independently have that much money? I would have assumed her wealth came through her family, in which case her parents should be telling her “lolno you are not buying that no-count idiot a car”.

Meh, let’s use that staple gun on his body a few times just in case.

Ooh, stemless wine glasses, just like the ones Diamond and Silk favor.

(Well, of course the people who file the lawsuit are always the plaintiffs, but my point is that Cinemark is being accused in the comments here of something akin to SLAPP, when they didn’t actually file a lawsuit at all.)

Do they really want to live in a world where every ‘public’ building has the same security guidelines as an airport?

But a SLAPP is a vexatious lawsuit filed when the merits of the case don’t support it in order to intimidate people into not exercising their rights. The people who filed meritless lawsuits in this case were the plaintiffs, they did it multiple times, and they had the opportunity to stop at numerous points. The…

Yeah. This thing about seizing on the exit doors and demanding they have alarms is an obvious red herring. I don’t know if these people are really so unobservant that they’ve never noticed that customers use those exits routinely in just about every movie theater, or if it’s just out of some psychological-driven…

Obviously, but why do you think that matters? (Because, of course, it doesn’t actually matter.)

What happenedto her is awful but it won't be helped by demanding money from a third party who wasn't responsible.

Do you work in a retail setting? One in which customers pay when they leave? Movie customers pay when they come in. The alarmed exits at retailers are to prevent customers from stealing cartfulls of merchandise. That’s why so many theaters have rear exits and so many people use them. They’re not meant only to be used…

Clearly there was no liability. That's what the judgment established.

Pushing private businesses to make these kinds of (thankfully very rare) events impossible is not just frivolous, it's actively dangerous. I don't want mall cops armed and responsible for dealing with terrorists. That would have a lot of collateral damage.

Evidently, however, this was just a door, like the exit doors right there in pretty much every movie theater I’ve ever been in.

I know perfectly well that I don’t trust private companies to enforce anti-terrorism efforts. You’re the rube here; you’ve been fooled into thinking that it’s easy and consequence-free to stop things like this from happening; I know that in reality, efforts to make it impossible for a bad actor to do a bad thing end…

If all theaters did as you claim they wouldn’t make a dime because everyone would enter through the emergency doors.

Most people in this thread are acting as if they wouldn’t want their millions endangered if their stupidity made a disaster possible so they’re siding with the corporation.

Wanting businesses to have basic safety measures—like emergency doors with functioning alarms

Or, you know, keeping making your conviction that I somehow picked this up from comments I didn’t even have time to fucking read a hill to die on.
