[size=5]K[/size]ANSAS CITY, Mo. — A southwest Missouri man accused of plotting to shoot up a movie theater during the new "Twilight" film was charged Friday after his mother contacted police, telling them she worried her son had purchased weapons similar to those used during the fatal Colorado theater shooting.
Blaec Lammers, 20, of Bolivar, is charged with first-degree assault, making a terroristic threat and armed criminal action. He was jailed in Polk County on $500,000 bond.
"Thankfully we had a responsible family member or we might have had a different outcome," Bolivar Police Chief Steve Hamilton told The Associated Press. He said Lammers is under a doctor’s care for mental illness, and court documents said he was "off of his medication."[/quote][/size][/font][/color]

You mean to tell me the crime was prevented by someone acting responsibly and not by tighter gun laws?!?, Whaaaaaa?! (Head explodes)

Hopefully the movie theater he was planning to shoot up would have been posted with a "no guns" sign. That woulda stopped him, right?

Oh once they see the 'no guns' sign, they're out of luck. Lol
