    This is a story of one bootlicking employee who was in desperate need of fucking off and minding his own business:

    However, just as the movie started, an employee told them to put their snack bags away, the report said. They agreed but the employee apparently insisted on sitting next to them to monitor the snack situation.

    A few minutes later, one of the children popped a Skittle he was already holding into his mouth, and quite frankly, all hell broke loose, the women said. The employee started shouting at them, and said that the police would be called unless they left. This is when the children started crying.

    “My niece asked nicely: ‘If you’re calling the police, are they going to kill my mum?’” one of the women told the newspaper. “And he laughed at that stage. He looks directly in her face and he said: ‘Yeah, maybe we’ll find out.’

        Fascists have it so easy, give the average fucker a little pin and tell them they’re special helpers and they’ll do this kind of thing for free.

          Hopefully they fired the guy and referred him to a mental health institute. If I was a parent, I would definitely not visit a place where my kids get told I could be killed for their actions.

            Seriously, what is a guy like this even gonna do for the rest of his life? Moving to the US and becoming a cop?

            They were trespassed by the theater, so they don’t really have a choice in the matter there.

            Also, I’ve seen a video of the encounter, and their conduct towards the employees was pretty poor, and they refused to leave.

      Is he secretly an American? Because that sounds far more like something I’d hear here. Atrocious.

        Yeah I thought it was US based on context too. I should’ve been suspicious when the employee didn’t open fire on the family…

                I agree with what I think you’re trying to say, which is that moral narcissism is good, but I don’t think moral n*rcissists are smug assholes. I think they’re people with a pathological need to improve and treat others with kindness.

                  So by making some snarky comment about how a guy working at a movie theater would probably just shoot the whole family if they were all in America, you think the original comment is by someone who seeks to improve and treat others with kindness? Are you even reading the same thread?

                    No. I said it was a weird compliment and I meant it. It’s weird to call this movie theatre guy a moral n*rcissist. He doesn’t act like one at all!

                    Impossible to improve if there is no reflecting on the current reality before changing. I’m just reflecting on mine: I braced myself for another murder story and was pleasantly surprised, even if this story was still a bad one.

      this whole thing wouldn’t be a problem if the police were the tiniest bit trustworthy
