They'rrre OFF! Lawyers off and running after Batman massacre

There's only four days on the clock but America's legal profession is filing briefs 'n torts in courts far and wide already.


Torrance Brown's legal team was the first to file a claim. Since Brown wasn't shot or otherwise injured the claim may lack credibility in the eyes of some. But that is not the case, said a PR person for the team.


"Mr. Brown's right to enjoy an evening at the movies has been irrevocably prejudiced and we intend to seek redress."


Mr. Brown's claim is the first of many. Hell, if people who weren't hurt can sue, what about people who were not actually in the theater? There could have been dozens of traumatized folks in the lobby.


And what about passersby on the sidewalk? What about people who were just in that theater the night before? Hell, I think anybody who's been to Colorado in the last year can probably find a lawyer willing to file a claim on their behalf.
