I just can’t wait until the stories begin coming out about all the “high capacity ammunition clips” he had in a bag. The move to ban them will gain some serious TV time.
“If only he had 7 bullet clips, he would have had to reload more often. Those 30 bullet clips must be banned!”
3-2-1... BREAKING NEWS...
Of course...if they’re going to take their life then slip away in the tub... pills/booze of some sort and do the deed...rather than create all the drama.
Whitney Houston comes to mind.
So THAT’s why they call it a terminal!
Yep!
There is a report that there was two shots fired (AR-15 fired in the air), then three shots fired.
If the guy shot himself in the head with the pistol and the air marshal shot at the person as well, where was the 3rd shot from.
There is security footage of this.
Maybe Obama has allocated $100 million to edit this security footage to promote gun control. He will probably take from the Pentagon budget to do this...
Then the edited footage will be used to promote gun control.
Probably Obama will take $100 million from the Pentagon budget to do this.
With the fact the air marshal missed, that may be made into an excuse to buy 2 billion rounds of ammo for TSA/air marshal target practice.
Did he shoot a bystander? He definitely needs some more range time.
Absolutely correct - they report the use of a gun which does engender some copycats, while not reporting jumpers. Had a friend who worked in one of the tallest high rises in the city, had seen more than one “jumper” - but they never made the news. There were more than one every year from that building - never reported to the public.
Was this a “Manchurian Suicide Victim”?
Bingo. Spot on.
I think that’s the United Express terminal, under reconstruction. Caught flights through there last yr.
actually “D” terminal is international
“B” terminal is for the small commuter jets
“E” and “C” terminals are for the larger jets and interstate travel
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE RACE OF THIS GUY OR IF HE YELLED ALLAH AKBAR?
nO NAME?
Not normal MO of Arab Moslems. Ft. Hood being the exception.
Likely white guy, not Moslem.

At least it was only himself.
According to KHOU, the shooting occurred near the ticket counter in Terminal B of Texas’ largest airport...
****************************
KHOU needs to do some research. DFW is the 2nd largest airport in the USA, with Denver being number one.
Houston Bush is first in Texas in international flights, and DFW is second.
That said... Many earlier comments mentioned this might have been political. Since terminal B handles the bulk of domestic flights, is it possible this guy was trying to cause the terminal to shut down just to disrupt the arrival of people coming to the NRA convention?
Probably not. I think he had other problems.
I’ve been wrong more in the last few years than I used to be. Usually pretty predictable, but we’re getting more diverse in every way.
The man wrote on his facebook page today that he was having trouble controlling the monster inside him.
He was from Beaumont, Texas.
This apparently had NOTHING to do with the NRA convention!
Given all that, he appears to be an African-American.
But this could have easily have been a WHITE man who was troubled.
RACE IS NOT a factor in this case.
