Shots fired at LAX

I'm not entirely sure you do either. Terminal 3 can be reached from the Upper World Way and is accessible from the street. It sounds like the shooting occurred at one of the perimeter TSA checkpoints of the terminal

Do you know?

Terminal is where the overall building. Where passengers transfer form ground transportation to the planes. In the terminal you can buy tickets, get baggage, ect.

The portion that goes allows passengers to board a plane is called a CONCOURSE.

Though to be fair do here terminal used more frequently than concourse outside of at the airport

Anybody who has ever flown into or out of LAX understands the urge to grab a gun and open fire. I'm surprised it doesn't happen there every day.
 
What is it with that airport? Shots fired, dry ice bombs, etc.

I was there about a week ago. For one of the nation's largest gateway airports, what a shithole, in line with JFK. I can't believe I'm saying this, but LAX is more or less what PHL looked like 15 years ago (except for the new Intl terminal, that is very nice).

It was an Assault Rifle in a (supposedly) secure airport terminal in a state with an assault weapon ban, magazine restrictions, a waiting period for purchasing firearms, no private sales of firearms without an FFL/background check, and carry restrictions.

And who stopped the bad guy with a gun? A good guy with a gun.

They won't be talking about this for long.
 
LA Times is reporting it was a former TSA agent who did the shooting.


As much as i dislike the TSA...still a sad day one of them has passed away due to this.

Gun appears to have been a Mini-15 or 30. Not an AR. Even though the MSM will call it an assault rifle i am sure instead of what it truly is. Least thats what people who actually know guns are saying. Looks like a Ruegr Mini 15 Tactical to me

Many will say it just proves the law doesn't go far enough.

It probably doesn't. I bet your life the guy had a history of mental issues or acting nuts.
