So much for TSA’s vetting process. Good thing he didn’t decide to take a plane load of people with him.

In 3,.....2,...... I know that atrium well and we’ve stayed there several times for early morning flights. Gates 1-59 should be okay but 70-129 chk point are in the splat zone.

Which adds to my suspicions about “school mass shooting statements” being made by the “students” at our schools. Hmmmmm. This guy may be onto something. JMO.
