Regal theaters have said, “backpacks and bags of any kind” will be subject to searches for theater goers’ safety. At the same time, The Wrap reports the theater chain admits their policy “is not without flaws.”
Of course, those “flaws” will result in law-abiding citizens paying a price for being unarmed—a price that those denying the exercise of Second Amendment rights are largely immune from paying.
But this is the path society goes down when businesses begin denying the natural rights of their patrons. First, they deny the rights of law-abiding citizens and then, when criminals ignore the denial, they punish law-abiding citizens by searching their purses, their bags, and their backpacks. |

I suspect the teens entrusted with this task by Regal will soon tire of being harassed by whatever patronage continues to show up. More likely these kids will be tasked to purloin the healthy snacks and juices thoughtful parents and kids put in "diaper bags", backpacks, etc thus avoiding the theater chain's "high-profit" concessions. |
