Active Shooter(s) Ft. Lauderdale Airport

[SOMEPARTS]

Not calling it terror event at the moment... 5 dead 13 injured. Was supposed to be single gunman but now hearing maybe additional shooters.

[mass243]

Time will tell.
Could be US ally from Syria or just someone whose commodore overheated one last time.

Doesn't matter to the victims though... may they rest in peace.

[SOMEPARTS]

Hundreds of people are running across the tarmac. Not jogging...running - old people running fast. Not sure if bomb threat or what.

[SF1900]

youre not safe anywhere.

I am sitting in barnes and nobles doing work. Who knows what can happen.

Shooter identified as Esteban Santiago, they might frame as disgruntle military, as he was carrying his military ID at the time, and they're making a big deal about that.

Video from inside that area of the airport is very sad.

[JackScribber]

More guns!, not less.

This wouldn't have happened if we doubled the gun ownership rates!

[Skeletor]

Good thing the airports are full of these security theater actors highly trained and capable officers:

[Mr Anabolic]

One last gun-grab attempt by Obirdbrain before Jan 20th?

[The_Punisher]

Typical scared american thinking.  I bet you all airports all of a sudden deployed arm guards with machine guns because of their fear.

they are probably talking to each other on the phone as face to face would require exertion

[Victor Venice Beach]

Why are there almost never mass shootings in Canada?
People also own guns in Canada, right? Yanks just crazy or sumting?

Scared? No.

Just a realization that a shooting can happen any place, any time.

None of us are really safe. Anything can fall apart at any time. I am not too sure this represents fear, or just shatters the realization of the "Absolutism of Life."

Good point, we can't live in fear though. All can can do is be ready. But fuck how can I be ready when I'm chasing a three year old everywhere I go

Were you happier before or after the kid?

Bullshit. We're all safe.  This is one big ass country.  Something happens in Florida and by the magic of the internet people in Michigan feel the effects like it's close to them but reality is it's thousands of miles away in an isolated place.

Gotta love the speed of which a mass shooter's name is released when he's not a towelhead....

[NarcissisticDeity]

240 upset because of the election?

Well they won't call it a terrorist attack then.

So, the guy flies in from another location, gets his checked luggage out of baggage claim, removes gun from luggage and starts shooting people in baggage claim area.  The logistics of this seems strange.  Why even bother buying an airline ticket?  If he just wanted to shoot random people, he could have done the same thing by simply pulling up in his car, walking in, and start blasting away.  Don't see the point as to why he had to through all these unnecessary steps just to shoot random strangers in an airport baggage area.

He stopped posting a couple of weeks BEFORE the election. Posted like 80 times a day on some days ( long winded posts) that cant be good. Internet addiction grinding him to a hold perhaps? Hopenhe is OK.

Maybe he got the middle seat next to 2 permabulkers, the bingo wings, elbows and protein farts were just too much to take.
