It’s unfortunate that there’s been so much controversy around Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Trilogy. With the death of Heath Ledger and the Aurora shootings. Now this. On January 2, five schools in Narrows, VA cancelled classes after an article linked the name of their town to a conspiracy surrounding the Sandy Hook shooting and
The Dark Knight Rises.
The Dark Knight Rises is also tied to another tragedy with the Aurora, CO theater shootings which took place at a midnight release of the film.
In the article that was posted RevelationNow.net, but has been taken down, the article titled "The Next School Massacre Target?" tells officials in Giles County, Virginia to warn parents and cancel classes on Wednesday. No specific threat has been made, but Giles County Sheriff Morgan Milliron said,
"We have to take this as serious information."
The of an attack of a school in this town came from a scene in
The Dark Knight Rises which depicts Commissioner Gordon referencing a map of attack sites: one is called Sandy Hook and the other is Narrows. Recently, several conspiracy sites such as InfoWars.com have picked up the story, which has resulted in widespread speculation. The schools reopened on January 3rd and security has since been increased. Thoughts? Comment below. Peace.
