Movie theater owners Nervous about "Straight Outta Compton"
Its a film about a group of young black men from the streets of Compton California come together to form one of the most influential Hip Hop groups in the world. It's one of the most anticipated films this year. However some might not be too pleased by its release. Due to the films gangster themes, some movie theater owners have voiced their concerns of gang violence emerging within their theaters. With the recent trial of James Holmes, the madman who shot up a Colorado movie theater, and the incident in Tennessee in which a hatchet wielding gunmen threatened the lives of innocent movie goers, it appears that their concerns are well founded. In fact older movies like "Boyz In The Hood", have lead to cases of violence in the past. Just for good measure, Universal studios have partnered up with some theaters to provide extra security.
