    Americans shooting each other.
    Only news because it's at an airport.

    A major international airport. It would be global news, I think, if it was any major international airport.

    not if you're the TSA guy who gets shot.

    But based on what i've heard about the TSA, in a case of Terrorist VS TSA i'd nearly side with the terrorist.

    Another example of how this tragic situation could have been prevented if the "good guys" had more guns.

    Unconfirmed reports now that the shooter was an off-duty TSA person.

    Most odd.

    seemed to be confusion about number of gunmen

    one of the witnesses was including cops as gunmen when counting..

    Well what do you expect?

    I had a 93 year old Irish female relative stripped down to her underwear in JFK while travelling to Shannon.

    People hate the TSA.

    Yeah. Its not like an actual human being, got shot (and died) or anything. Just focus on his line of work why don't you....

    No you do.
    And celebrating a murder like that is just sick.

    So because you had a family member suffer a moment of embarrassment it makes your comment ok? Of course people hate the TSA, but I'm not sure the workers are proud of what they have to do at the same time. National security is what they want to focus on at the end of the day

    I'm not celebrating it, I just don't feel that sad about it.

    Right now his or her status is wounded, not dead, btw.

    If not celebrating, then most certainly sneering!
    Equally as disgusting.
