Theater Shooting Prompts Hightened Security

Is stepping up police presence at movie theaters the most appropriate response?

News of the tragedy at a Colorado theater during the opening of the new Batman movie had parked outside local theaters over the weekend.

The reaction sparked some debate on Patch. Reader Curt questioned the threat: "So the police moved resources away from places they would otherwise be used to stand in front of a movie theater," he pointed out.

Others called the response the right move, for safety and for peace of mind.

Does the increased police presence make you feel safer? Is there any other reaction you would like to see? Tell us in the comments.
