Sheesh! Everythings about making a statement today...one way or another....killing onesself and others seems to becomeing the “fad”....if the media didn’t run with it it would likely not be a big deal.
Something like this:
Man shoots self at airport. Died of gunshot wounds. End of story.
How much you wanna bet Obummer makes a statement about this????
Do you think it ever dawned on him that he just might not see himself on the 6 O’clock news?
Maybe just like the guy in Atlanta that decided blue suicide was better than getting foreclosed on. But the Air Marshall missed and he decided it would be easier to show him how to do it instead of trying to explain it to him.
Sounds like we need an Air Marshall who needs a few less flights a week to go to the range.
It's the gun issue that drives this story in the news cycle. If he'd jumped to his death he would still have been a threat to those below him but the local and national media never report jumper suicides "it might push some viewer over the edge and solicit copycat behavior".
