i've never heard of a theater having a policy like that, and why would such a policy make me feel safer?

No. Most of my theater visits in my life have been by myself. I dont usually have anyone to go with, nor do I feel the need for someone sitting next to me

What is the point of a no singles policy? I saw movies by myself 3 times.

To prevent shooters, probably.

What is to prevent a group of people or 2 people from shooting people? You can't just say anyone seeing a movie alone is a shooter. -_-

Banning singles won't make shootings impossible

that's... ridiculous. just because someone goes to the theater alone doesn't mean they're gonna shoot up the place. if this policy is really a thing and that's really the reason why, then it's as much of an unfairly targeting overreaction if not more than that whole "teach men not to rape" thing.

Yeah, I'm sure being denied a ticket will keep somebody from shooting up a theater.

This topic again? This isn't a policy I've ever heard of beyond some theaters not letting adults in to see kid's movies by themselves.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

A no singles policy means you can't leave a single empty seat between you and the next person.

Stop making these stupid topics. We already established that the "no singles" policy isn't as literal as you're making it sound.

I don't usually chime in on stupid topics like this, but as someone who manages a theater, this is a stupid topic. (Just as it was the other day)
