Fuck the law

There is no law about any kind of chicken in cinemas. They can't even arrest you, when you bring your pet chicken.

If only that were true for every country on this earth

I doubt there is actually a country that has a law about it. That cinemas don't allow it, doesn't mean there is a law.

My sister doesn't allow people to wear shoes in her living room. Doesn't mean there is a law against shoes in living rooms and you will be arrested for wearing shoes.

You are welcome to prove me wrong and provide a source for your claim.

I'm not sure where your sister lives, but I don't think she's not going to call the police if I walked into her living room with my shoes on. They'd probably get me for trespassing or breaking and entering. /S

I know what you mean about the sneaking food into theaters. They'd just ask you to throw it away /put it in your car / or just leave. Source: first job was a theater. Now if you refused, it would likely be an officer that throws you out on a Friday/Saturday as they hired off duty officers to be around those nights for security purposes. Used to keep the K9 for the K9 units in the birthday room because we felt bad they would leave them in the running car all night in Central Florida. Surprised a few employees when they went to grab something and were startled by a happy go lucky Shepherd/Malamute.

They were very on or off duty dogs. In the car, work mode, and ready to go to war. In the birthday party room, you better be ready for pets and snuggles.

Man I thought we were shitposting

A business can forbid outside food, it's not a rare choice, they are a private business and can remove people based on their actions. Then again, I've never once seen a theater try or care.

Yes, sure, but norimee is right, they can't arrest you. If they do arrest you for it, it's false improsinment and they'll get arrested instead.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

That is not how any of that works. They would call the police to remove them. They would then determine if they do pose a threat and then maybe detain them on a psychological hold. Even if all that does happen, it has to go to a judge with a charge after it's examined by the DA. Then maybe false imprisoned. But it seems a bit far fetched for the situation.

I'm not sure we're thinking of the same hypothetical here...

I'm saying if you bring chicken to the cinema, and the staff (citizens) arrest you for it, they are beyond wrong. Because it's oviously not illegal to bring chicken to the cinema, only against policy and therefore it would be false imprisonment.

All they can really do is ask you to leave, and if you don't they can call the police, or maybe, depending on the law in that jurisdiction, they could then legally detain you for said trespassing. But certainly not for breaking their policy in the first place.
