Would those same theaters buckle if it were Christians boycotting a movie.
It wasn’t about a boycott, it was about the threat of a terrorist attack, and opening day, which was going to be Christmas. Ask yourself if you’re a PR guy for Harkins what happens if the threat turns out real, and they hit one of your theaters, and it goes down in history as the Harkins Christmas Massacre, and what is your responsibility in that scenario?
