The Cinemark theater in Aurora, Colorado bans customers from carrying firearms (legal or otherwise). In doing this, they haven taken upon themselves the responsibility of protecting their customers.

If one person in that doomed audience didn't bring their legally permitted firearm due to Cinemark's ban and was injured or killed, does that person (or their estate) have an excellent case against Cinemark for failing to protect them?

I think they do.

If you blatantly refuse to let me bring a completely legal fire extinguisher to your place of business and I die in a fire there, that really looks like you screwed up.

Yes, I bet their litigation team is on full time. They will settle and insurance will cover most of the cost. I am sure most theaters are covered for mass casualty incidents (fire, panic, terrorism, ect...)

Gods know I carry a fire extinguisher with me everywhere I go.

Somebody may have let him in through an exit door

There was one witness who said this. No other witnesses have claimed this. Short of more definitive evidence emerging to the contrary, it sounds like he acted alone.

I think it is more likely he went in after buying a ticket and cased the place a little while sitting down and that is what this person saw. Then he went out the emergancy door and propped it open on the way out, then came back in with equipment.

But didn't some say he walked down the theater to the front? Aren't emergency doors usually to the sides of the front? If that is so then he didn't come in that way. I guess security cameras will shed light on how he got in with the weapons.

There was a law enforcement person who repeated this story.

It doesn't have to be a conspiracy.

It may be that somebody in the theater helped him unknowingly by propping the door open at his request while he went out to get his guns.

I think that that is the most likely scenario. The door shut behind him, and he knocked on the door and someone let him in. Unfortunately for that person, they probably got the first bullet.

TMZ has already reported someone (who wasn't hurt) is lawyering up against the theater, Warner Bros and anyone else he can think.
