I think it's a little unfair to ask that of civilians.
They thought they were going to a movie.

But one guy with a CC permit and a clear line of fire might have saved
some lives that day.

Problem is - such a person would not likely have been going to see that
movie at midnight...

Aurora Theatre Gun-Free Zone

beware the wordwrap

Which will only come back to bite them on the ass in the end...
By restricting the patrons ability to defend themselves using
personally carried lawful firearms the theater assumes the
duty-of-care to ensure it's patrons safety to offset that
restriction it chose to impose upon its patrons...

Also I don't believe that there is any such policy in effect
which is zero exceptions... Off-duty law enforcement officers
are often required by law to be armed at all times, the
private property owner could not legally refuse such a person
entry or purchase of goods... If the theater makes that one
exception then legally they can not bar anyone else in
lawful possession of a firearm entry as that would be a
discriminatory policy and restricting citizen's constitutional
rights and offers the establishment no protection from
criminals who illegally carry weapons in violation of the
law, let alone the policies of some store or business...

It sounds like the theater employees were asleep at the
switch as rear exit doors are frequently monitored at all
times to prevent "theft of services" where one person in
a group buys a ticket and then opens the exit door to
admit their friends whom have not paid... A teenaged
usher with acne and a flashlight could have foiled this
incident during the several minutes it would have taken
the suspect to unpack and put on all the gear and
weapons he had stowed away in his car...

But no one checked the door the suspect exited
through and left propped open so he could re-enter
the exit to initiate his attack...
