I don't think the TSA agents should be armed, but I'm sure everyone (even the TSA agents) were happy deputy Slyve was.
- burger_moon 12y agoAt every airport screening point I've been to there's always been at least 1 deputy there on post. I feel that is sufficient. The tsa screeners are not the kind of people I would trust with a firearm.
- jacquesm 12y agoYou can't really screen against crazy one-offs. This could happen again tomorrow and the rest of the days of the year without anybody being able to come up with a plan to effectively screen out people like that before they can do harm. The only way you can do that is by completely uprooting society. Any idiot can take a machete to the airport or a schoolyard or any other place where there are a lot of people and act out their ill fantasies. An airport is actually a really stupid choice exactly because there are a ton of armed officers floating around. Suicide-by-police officer is a pretty good description of acts like these.
- Osiris 12y agoExcept for the bystander and TSA agent that were shot by the officer. I actually find it irresponsible to fire a weapon in a crowded security line. Two innocent people were shot.
