    Chad Oulson (43) was shot dead in a movie theater by a man who asked him to stop using his phone during the previews

    http://mydeathspace.com/article/2014...g_the_previews

    Oh, Florida!!!

    The shooting suspect, identified as retired Tampa police officer Curtis Reeves, 71, became annoyed when a couple sitting in front of him were texting during the movie's previews, according to the Pasco County Sheriff's office.

    Police said that Reeves asked Chad and Nichole Oulson several times to stop, and then Reeves left the theater. When Reeves returned, Chad Oulson asked Reeves if he reported his phone use to the theater managers, police said. That prompted an argument which ended when Reeves pulled out a gun and shot Oulson in the chest, police said.

    This story makes me so fucking mad. Totally worth killing someone over. Now that little girl has to grow up without her father because of some trigger happy nut job.

    Yeah I'm sure he'll be here soon enough!

    And seriously? First off, while it's a dick move to use your phone during movies, if it's just the previews then shit, motherfucker...calm the fuck down!.

    I don't find it a problem during previews, but once the movie starts and you're distracting me? Yeah, no. Sounds like both the victim and his wife were douchenozzles. I want to hear more about what happened, but that's my take. Doesn't mean they deserve what happened to them, but there's a reason you don't text/use your phone in the theater. It's fucking rude! Not "I'm going to shoot you dead" rude, but rude nonetheless.
    Don't like what I have to say? I respect that. Now go fuck yourself.

    An argument over texting in a Florida movie theater that escalated to involve popcorn being thrown ended with a retired Tampa SWAT police captain opening fire on a man sitting in front of him - fatally shooting him and wounding the man's wife as she tried to save him.
    Curtis Reeves, 71, was charged with second-degree homicide of Chad Oulson, 43, after he was shot dead at around 1.30 pm in front of 25 horrified witnesses during a screening of the Mark Walhberg film, Lone Survivor.
    'Somebody throws popcorn. I'm not sure who threw the popcorn,' said Charles Cummings, who, as a birthday treat, was about to watch the movie at The Grove 16 Theater.
    'And then bang, he was shot.'

    This. For sure. While nobody should be shot over something so trivial, the victim acted like a jerk. It's not even the texting that is the worst part, it's continuing to text after a person near you has expressed his problems with it, blaming the guy for telling management, and then arguing with him over it. Curious to see what type of "argument" this was that caused someone to pull of a gun on him. Common courtesy goes a long way. Being self-centered and disrespectful doesnt. Unfortunately, this guy didn't seem to care and got into a stupid argument with a nutjob with a gun.

    Feel bad for his kid and wife though.

    There were only 25 people in the movie theater.

    Why didn't the old man and his wife get up and MOVE?

    Why can't people just respect others? I get so angry at people being loud and using their phone at the movies. One of the reasons me and my husband quit going unless it is something really really special. As ill as I get though..... hurting someone over it? Never. Get management or move. So sad. ... so many lives affected by noting more than a temper tantrum.

    As if the pain that the former police officer caused couldn't get any worse:

    A witness said the victim was texting his three-year-old daughter before he was shot dead.

    This is absolutely crazy! What makes people reach the point where they say fuck it, I'm killing this guy over something stupid? I don't get it. That's why I don't argue with people in public. Since Illinois has a conceal and carry law, I go out of my way to be nice. I never want to annoy some damn fool who doesn't mind spending 25 to life in prison for killing me!

    I feel so sorry for his family. He should've just let it go, or maybe stood outside until he finished his texting....because it's obvious he didn't care about the previews.

    And if the perp's pic doesn't scream "God fearing Republican gun nut asshole" I don't know what does. Nothing wrong with going to church, it's the worship of guns and what they represent that angers me. This man obviously thinks that it's perfectly fine to solve any problem with a FIREARM. How fucked up do you have to be to think that? Who taught you that? Are you fucking retarded?

    Someone stole my parking spot: Imma shoot 'em.

    That woman cut in front of me in line: Imma shoot her.

    Asshole texting during the previews: Let's see how he feels after a bullet.

    WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?

    This is enraging. I don't care if that guy was doing the fucking macarena on full fucking blast during the most important part of the movie, you don't take out a gun and shoot him?!?! Crazy ass old man. Hope he never sees the light of day again.

    Oh whatever. I'm that person who hates people who use their phones in the movie theater, but this was during the previews. He was probably texting his daughter goodnight before the movie started and this asshole just had a bug in his ass. No amount of texting during a movie or arguing gives a guy a right/reason to use a gun.

    He left the theater and came back, so he probably went to go get his gun. 1st degree murder.

    I think the fact that he left, walked to his car, retrieved the gun and walked back in shows premeditation..doesn't it??

    Now the guy is setting himself up for a SYG "i was afraid for my life" defense...because popcorn was thrown.

    According to the arrest report, Reeves claims that the victim struck him in the face with an unknown object and said that he was in fear of being attacked.

    "Somebody throws popcorn. I'm not sure who threw the popcorn," said Charles Cummings, who, as a birthday treat, was about to watch the movie "Lone Survivor" at The Grove 16 Theater. "And then bang, he was shot."

    Cummings and his son Alex -- who both had blood on their clothes as they walked out of the theater -- told a group of reporters Monday afternoon that the show was still in previews when the two couples started arguing.Cummings, who said he was a combat Marine in Vietnam, said Oulson fell onto him and his son. "Blood started coming out of his mouth," said Alex Cummings. "It was just a very bad scene."

    Movie popcorn is expensive. Seriously, that shit costs waaay too much for someone to just throw it around. Also, stupid old man.

    Since when do 3 year olds text?


    I'm sure he was texting the baby sitter to tell his daughter something, but that sentence makes it sound like him and his 3 year old daughter were texting back and forth.


    This is really sad, and I feel awful for the victim and his family...especially his wife, for having to see that. She can never un-see her husband getting shot and dying right in front of her. I just couldn't imagine....ugh.

    Sounds like she'll forever have a scar on her hand too as a constant reminder for how she tried to stop the bullet.

    Stupid fucking old man.
