Reeves had a choice. Retire his big, fat, rectal aperture, always on police mentality when he retired.
Fry the SOB
Doesn’t appear any of you have watched any of the testimony from the trial but you’re welcome to your own opinion
A hope this piece of human trash goes to jail for the rest of his life. He walked around pissed off at the world and trying to pick a fight with anybody while carrying a deadly weapon. When I’m carrying my weapon (concealed bc I don’t want others to know) I know it’s even more important to avoid or de-escalate any type of conflict. I don’t tail a$$holes on the road bc people are crazy and I don’t want to get shot.
They even stall and delay the trail for retire cops!!!
A young strong guy is yelling at an old man and we are wondering why the old man shot him? People really hate police. I hope these same people are good with a 40 year old guy yelling profanities at their elderly parents.
8 year to trial is total bs. Curtis should already be in jail.
Reeve's claim on the witness stand that he felt his life was in danger by a larger man doesn't work. If he felt threatened by Oulson, he wouldn't have started an argument with him in the first place. He would have just moved to another seat at the very beginning. No doubt the gun Reeves brought with him into the theater predisposed him to be aggressive, just as it does in countless other murders. Yet bringing a gun with him wherever he goes suggests a man already chronically frightened and aggressive. Reeves had a history of provoking confrontations with people minding their own business. Reeves went into that theater looking for someone to bully, and someone died for it. If Reeves is acquitted, nobody will be safe anymore, because gun-carrying aggressors like Reeves will be going around provoking confrontations, knowing they just have to say they feared for their lives and they'll walk away feeling proud of their murder.
Taking someone’s life over this? Jesus. What is happening to the world?
Should have been Arrested, Tried, Convicted, Sentenced & SENT TO PRISON 8 Years Ago!!! She needs to Sue him for EVERYTHING & Sue his Wife as well (charge her too, as an accomplice, bet she knew he had a gun with him).
Popcorn murder
All I want to know is what movie was it ?????
Why is he still out of jail? Lock his ass up!!!!!!!!
Team reeves are just desperate, throwing everything they can to try and help someone that murdered a normal family man out with his wife. So what if he looked at his phone during the trailers. He didn’t deserve to die. The killer is just making up stories and bringing those down close to him because he can’t be a man and accept what he did 8 years ago. Well justice has been long overdue and his stories and denials lend credence to the face reeves has no remorse and has no respect for human life. He needs jail like 8 years ago! What are we talking about it for? This has always been an open and shut case. No one is above the law
Americans love their so-called self-defense. It doesn't cost you anything to walk away from a fight.
"Call on the Lord in the day of trouble,
and He will deliver you"
        – Psalm 50 : 15
White on white it should not matter we or sick bruh time up on them
It took this long to go to trial 🤦ðŸÂ¿â€ÂÂ♀ï¸ÂÂ
Taking a life over popcorn? Absolutely heartbreaking.
Oh, using old is not an excuse!
With guns, a petty conflict can escalate to lethality very quickly. People in other developed countries are looking at us and asking themselves how we can possibly be this stupid.
School shootings are an American phenomenon. There is no other country in the world that has school shootings.
America used to be the land of Elvis, Ali and Disneyland but now it is known for Earth's highest Covid death rate,
mass shootings, school shootings, racist attacks, crooked cops, mass mail theft, homeless, car-jacking, karens…
Thank God I'm not American !
POSTCARD FROM AMERICA. "Mass shootings in the US are a National Embarrassment". J.Biden.
Does America's love of killing and racism indicate a 'stupidity gene' within American DNA?
44 Americans are shot by other Americans each day, 186 school shootings in the last 10 years so you may be shot while on vacation.
Homeless line the beaches so watch out for needles in the sand. Have a nice vacation unless you are Black, Asian, Latino, Jewish…
He was threaten by the guy throwing popcorn at him???
Knew I could count on you . You were made to bring happiness into our world 🌎 thanks for the valuable help you â˜ÂÂï¸ÂÂâ˜ÂÂï¸ÂÂdid to me

I'm wondering if the older man isn't suffering from dimentia..
No you live in the USA and anytime you confront someone you face the danger of being shot. That is your reality today in the USA.
8 yes. WOW
Too bad the old man brought a loaded firearm to a popcorn fight. Don’t text in movie theaters. Don’t talk on your phone in movie theaters. Don’t throw popcorn on other people in movie theaters. Have some consideration for other people who pay good money and want to see the movie, they don’t want to see the light from your phone in their eyes. Other people exist in the world, have some basic consideration for other people.
Both are dicks. Who throws popcorn at someone??? Who talks during the previews??? Everything has consequences. Father was probably a dickhead. Good on the old guy wasting him. Should old guy be on house arrest for so long. Of course not. His ass should have been in jail immediately. From non USA resident I probably take a gun to the movies for protection too as usa people love to shoot anyone anywhere anytime.
Self defense?! Only in America🙄
Take a deep breath and imagine Curtis Reeves as a young black man with dreadlocks. He would have been arrested and convicted 8 years ago. But hey This is America 🇺🇸
Grumpy gonna meet the urban youth
Nonsense like this so why so many people have issues with the gun laws in the US
Popcorn sure as sh!t doesn’t equal bullets
I hope he gets life in prison with no parole.
Shouldn't have shot him, should've had him arrested for theft (the deceased threw the shooter's own popcorn at him – a detail conveniently left out) and assault, but I also don't feel sorry for the man who got shot cuz who responds like that to someone (especially an elderly) asking you to keep it down.
That excuse doesn’t work when the victim is a white man silly goose
He didn’t need his brace to shoot apparently. And he could have pulled his gun and not pulled the trigger. A retired cop knows all the excuses
Blue Lives Murder
even in retirement.
Defense Attorney’s have charged him all this money to keep him free at his age while he took a man’s from his 2 year old child’s life. Hell is going to be waiting on him.
THIS WAS EXTREMELY FUNNY 😂
No reason to shot ANYONE. and the fact the shooter was a cop. (Thinks he’s the end all, corrupt not a big surprise). Murderer
