That's all great for you and me, but for 12 other people, who like us, were in pursuit of a little happiness by going to a movie, things did not turn out so well. And while we could adapt the attitude that so long as we are okay, who cares what happened to them, I prefer not to do that.
I'm happy for you, not so happy for all those who had just as much right to be safe going to school, to the movies, shopping, eating etc, but ended up dead.
I rarely get involved in these discussions, but now I am angry. Angry at the selfishness of some people who are willing to dismiss the lives lost while they worry about any regulations on an activity that when it comes to rights, does not trump the right to life no matter how hard they try to make it the ultimate right. It isn't.
