Related: About this forumMan starts panic at theater in Fla.
Aside from the facepalm value of the story itself, what I think makes this relevant to the RKBA group are the comments of the officer about 40 seconds into the video.
"That easily could have been a justified homicide. Somebody could have responded... Shot him..."[/q]

I'm glad no one shot him, but holy shit. What a dumb-ass thing to do. People could have been killed in the rush to get out of the theater. I hope he gets to think about this for a long time in jail.

Why is this in RKBA? There's no gun in this story.

Actually this almost seems like a civilian version of suicide-by-cop.
