LadySkinsFan Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Hope your family is okay, Hooper. I hate the TSA too, but not enough to shoot them. Why weren't they stopped before entering the terminal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebluefood Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm really starting to wonder if we're on the brink of something really bad. I don't know if it's a full on riot or a serious attempt to overthrow the government or what, but something makes me wonder if we're a few years, or even months, away from something that will completely alter our world a la 9/11.

visionary Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_LAX_SHOOTING?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT Gunman kills TSA agent at LAX, injures 2 others A man pulled a semi-automatic rifle from a bag and shot his way past a security checkpoint at Los Angeles International Airport on Friday, killing a TSA officer and wounding two other people in an attack that sent terrified travelers running for cover and disrupted flights from coast to coast, authorities said. The unidentified gunman was wounded in a shootout with police and was taken into custody, said Los Angeles police Assistant Chief Earl Paysinger. A motive wasn't immediately clear. A Transportation Security Administration union official said the TSA officer was killed, citing local union officials. A law enforcement official said the shooting suspect is Paul Ciancia, 23, from New Jersey. He was wearing fatigues and carrying a bag containing a hand-written note that said he "wanted to kill TSA and pigs," the official said, who was briefed at LAX on the investigation and requested anonymity because was he was not authorized to speak publicly.

abdcskins Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Common theme is mental illness. We need to get a handle on the mental illness problem. 100% accurate. We can talk about restricting access to guns (which I am completely for), but the root of the problem lies with mentally disturbed individuals not having any type of intervention or help.
