Its a damn shame when kids can't go to the movies

My two sons ages almost 20 and the other is 16 went to the movies in Prince Frederick tonight with their 2 friends, one of which was also 20 and the other was also 16. They went to see prom night anyway, the movie started at 10 and here the come through the door at 11:00.

So I asked why they were back so early? The proceed to tell me how this group of black kids in front of them were running their mouth the whole movie and how they asked them to please be quiet and also had the guy at the theatre ask them to be quiet. From that point on these black kids (about 10 of them there together) began to call all their friends on the phone and say "yeah we are going to mess up these white boys after the movie" and all this crap. My oldest son who is responsible at this point for his little brother and his friend, told his little brother "as soon as we leave the theatre, you two go get in the car as fast as you can incase something happens" They continue to call their friends asking them to meet them at the movie theatre after the movie so they can mess these white boys up.

Now mind you, my sons are not little boys. The 20 year old is 6 ft 3 about 160 pounds (not big in weight but in height) his friend is 6ft tall about 200 pds and my 16 year old is 6ft tall 180 pounds and a wrestler. However, I thank God they were smart enough to get up and leave the theatre and ask for their money back rather than something go down in the parking lot and one of them get shot or even killed by some mouthy little punks with no balls!

My son did say to one of them when they were calling talking loudly so he could hear "yeah thats real nice, real nice that you have to call all of your friends to start a fight because you would prefer to do that than watch a movie that both YOU and I paid for"

I swear, things like this just make me mad and it really burns me up that black people are constantly screaming about racism when the real racism exists within them and when they truly were acting like the N word. And when I say N word, I mean IGNORANT PERSON! Its a damn shame that kids can not even go to the movies anymore without this type of crap!

I am not a racist person but between this and what I deal with at work, it would be really easy to become one. I just pray to God that my heart does not become closed and that my mind does not become narrow due to the actions of a few.

Those kids were just ignorant and bored . It is unfourtunate that your sons went through that when they were simply trying to watch a movie. However, the culprits could have been of any race they were probably just bored and wanted to start something because they have no lives. Rude and ignorant people come in all shapes in sizes; race may not have even been an issue.

But anyway, I wanted to see that movie this weekend. Did they say it was any good?

I agree.

There are going to be dumbasses all over the place.

That's just a shame.

I've told people to shut up in the movies before.

Why the hell would I want to listen to you run your mouth the whole movie?

We're all mad here.

I know one thing that drives me CRAZY in a movie theatre is when someone sits directly behind me eating popcorn and absolutely cannot or will not chew with their mouth closed. Whenever there is an intense, quiet moment in the movie, all I hear is smack, chomp, slurp. I know I'm probably being hyper-sensitive, but it really does make me go nuts.

Anyway...

Sinwagon, your son did the right thing by not carrying on with those punks. I know a lot of people who would have considered those remarks by them a challenge.

...don't you dare post a picture. You'll be branded a racist.
 
I'm not kid by any means, but I got very tired of paying too much to go to a theatre and listen to whomever talking, phoning, being obnoxious, whatever. That was the main reason for making a theatre at home and getting NetFlix. It's way more enjoyable.

Sorry your kids had experience, glad they were smart enough to bail.

It's not just black kids that do this, white kids are just as bad. That's why I don't go to the movies anymore - you get a bunch of unsupervised punks all gathered together and nobody knows how to act. If you tell them to be quiet, they'll start giving you a bunch of #### and threatening you. And if you go tell the manager (a 20 year old kid himself), he'll just look at you like, I'm not getting killed over your problem.

This sounds like I'm "teen bashing", but what happened at the movies is really indicative of what's going on with the teens these days. I'm glad your sons were able to take the high road & rise above it - AND were able to get their money back, too.

On a Saturday night - there should have been an adult on duty. And he should have thrown those punks out. (I hate that theatre - anyway, it's overpriced, & grimy looking.) This is the reason the teens continue acting like this - they're getting away with it because everyone is afraid to make a scene. Meanwhile they're little tyrants and are running the show.

You'd think the competition between home theater and the big screen would make it in the movie theater's best interest to keep the environment a pleasant one that everyone can enjoy. I haven't gone to a movie theater in years, mainly because I could never enjoy a movie with all of the noisemakers.

This just reaffirms it. Glad it didn't become something worse for your teens.

This is why I don't blame the teens so much as the adults who are supposed to be teaching them and smacking them in the head when they act stupid. And you can't even go to an adult venue that teens would normally avoid because some durhard Mommy will bring her spawn and let it cry during the performance or run around being a nuisance.

As you can tell, I'm not a huge fan of OPC.

PACK MENTALITY. Wonder if your kids shoud have called the cops? After all they were being threatened with bodily harm. It was wise and showed maturity that they avoided the situation and removed themselves BUT for the FCA (Future Criminals of America) it was a win for them, at least in their "minds" (I use the term loosely).Ran them white boys off!! And yes what took place is racist. Don't sugar coat or chalk it up to out of control teens.

Thank God that you raised some smart kids. I am so glad that they made it home safe. You should be proud of your boys. I know i would be. I have 2 sons, one is 20 and the other is 17. I only hope that mine would react the same way.

If one of my kids were threatened by a pack of punks, I would prefer they be able to whip out the Glock and cleanse the gene pool. Backing down only encourages the bad behavior.

This is when you go to the people at the counter, ask for the manager and demand a refund. When asked why....you refer them to the thuglets who can't behave properly.
