    Tired of stupid assholes taking their angst out on others.

    Wow. That might answer the question: "How the heck did someone get past security with a rifle?" with "Because he WAS security."

    So much for government-mandated background checks for gun owners...

    Yes, I'm just going to can the speculation as they sort things out. My apologies.

    In press conference they just held, they said the guy essentially shot his way through the security checkpoint to get into the terminal.

    Time again to "remedy" the 2nd Amendment.

    Pete Williams reported the shooter was carrying anti-government writings/literature.

    So now we are going to outlaw free speech because of "anti-government writings"?

    Just this week, a middle school student not far from here was suspended because a teacher found a notebook that contained "dark and disturbing writings". That's it? You wrote something that Big Brother doesn't agree with? Good heavens, what is society coming to?

    Hmm, usually these random shooters are huge government fans.
