Good food for thought that can be applied to different scenarios.

Re: Ultimate survival a the movies
I'm of the opinion that if I need a tactical battle plan to attend a movie, I'll just stay home and watch a DVD.
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. - John Adams

Re: Ultimate survival a the movies
Wife & I do that anyway, with the cost of 2 tickets, popcorn, drinks & candy approaching $45.00 for us, it's just plain not worth it. I can get a lot more fun spending $45 on other things than just an outing to the movies.Pawpaw wrote:I'm of the opinion that if I need a tactical battle plan to attend a movie, I'll just stay home and watch a DVD.
IMO, the author wrote the article to educate his readers that have absolutely NO situational awareness what-so-ever. A primer into situational awareness if you will, overemphasizing in detail, what options can/should be considered. And it's obvious that the author did not even consider those that have CHL's. Only unarmed people.
I also believe that he went into such detail, that his research material came from military situational awareness training manuals, and applied them to a theater setting. Just my opinion. But still good for thought for all of us.

Re: Ultimate survival a the movies
Forget the tactical battle plan....it's been a long time since I could find a movie theater where people weren't texting, talking on their phones, talking loudly, or letting their kids run up and down the isles. I gave up on movie theaters years ago.Pawpaw wrote:I'm of the opinion that if I need a tactical battle plan to attend a movie, I'll just stay home and watch a DVD.

If memory serves me, I believe the last movie I attended was Ghostbusters.

Re: Ultimate survival a the movies
I'm a big movie buff but I gave up on theaters long ago once I saw the digital projector setup in my son's dorm at A&M. When we were in town I had a dedicated "theater" room with a projector. Since we moved out to the country I've scaled down to a 70" TV. Mostly streaming with Netflix or Amazon, but still buy DVD's.Abraham wrote:VMI77,
