Officers on college campus begin carrying ‘assault rifles’

“The university said the move is necessary with the recent terror attacks in Paris and last week’s mass shooting in California. School officials also cited the recent rise in on-campus shootings. While some welcome the news, others do not think it is a great idea, including Mayor Marty Walsh.  ‘I get worried about local police like that carrying those rifles. You need a lot of training and certainly it begins a slippery slope,’ said Walsh. The school has more than 60 police officers and 20 of them will be armed with the rifles. Students on campus had mixed reactions to the change.”

After leaf blower scare, security checks now on the bill for movie theaters

“As many as three men sparked a stampede at the theater by brandishing a leaf blower that some mistook for a chainsaw.  In response, some movie chains in Orange County are beefing up security. Bags are being searched, pre-movie safety messages are aired and, in at least one theater in Southern California, metal detectors are deployed.  Security is an issue for at least some movie fans. A recent survey of moviegoers by the research firm C4 for Variety found about one-third wanted theater lobbies to have both an armed guard and metal detectors. Nearly a third also wanted bags searched.  Law enforcement in Orange County said Monday they are keeping an eye on movie theaters.”
