“Apparently this guy also thought it was for cleaning his ears...”
It’s a permanent cleaner.
My hubby is a commercial pilot. He has always said that someday some crazy person is going to figure out how much damage can be done by going off in a terminal. Forget the plane-think of all the people in a terminal on the non secure side of our beloved TSA critters.
One another note, it is interesting to study history-the history of propaganda and “false stories” that Hitler and nazi germany put out to discredit the jews. It is strangely familiar.....
About 1:35 p.m. today, a report of shots fired at Bush Intercontinental Airport was received by HPD at Terminal B. A lone armed male has suffered at least one gunshot wound and has been transported to an area hospital with life threatening injuries. There are no other reports of injuries nor other persons involved. Further information will be posted as it is confirmed.

Huh???
“Shep said he was dressed like an elf. I think”
Wait. Who was dressed as an elf, the gunman or Shep? :)
It’s been done, Lod Airport 1972.
Shep only does the elf thing on the weekends lol.
Brain fot.
Meant to say 200 miles from Austin to Bush Intercontinental
LOL!! Both?
Oh the drama!... Why don’t these people just drown in their bathtubes and be done with it, rather than making it a state or national issue. Sheesh!
One person has been shot dead at Terminal B of Bush Intercontinental Airport, according to the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences.
Houston Police Department spokeswoman Jodi Silva said that an armed male suffered at least one gunshot wound at 1:35 p.m. Thursday near a ticket counter in the pre-screening area of Terminal B.
The man walked in with an AR-15 and fired it into the air, according to KHOU. An air marshal confronted the gunman, who shot himself in the head, the station reports.
Not there...
Well, it is clear.
We must ban airports.
Lots of possibilities here-—the old Bushmaster pistol looks “AR” but would fit in a briefcase. Just taking a wild guess but, it’s Texas, he could have been carrying a guitar case with a couple Willie Nelson stickers and almost anything inside. The 24” rule doesn’t mean much to this guy since he obviously wasn’t planning on boarding anything but a gurney. As with every other casualty news story you’ve ever heard——the first version is halfassed and never quite right, ESPECIALLY where weapons are a factor.
....”fired two shots in the air and then shot himself in the head with a pistol, police said.”....
Sounds like something the Amisssh do...celebrating death.
Also the air marshall missed his target.
Where did his bullet go?
“It was an elf inflicted wound.”
Bahaha! That is some Post of the Day material right there!
LOL...I was wondering how many mph it was to San Jose ;)
