Why would LAX close down for more than six hours Friday after the shooter was taken into custody and thousands of people would have to sit in their planes for six hours and tens of thousands of people inconvenienced?
A law enforcement source says: “Investigation. Everything needs to be categorized and photoed. For serious cases like this, they’ll assign an officer to stand guard over a bullet casing for 2 hours so they can properly document it. They also comb for further clues, etc. take samples for DNA, fingerprints or other weapons.”
How could a shooter do his thing at LAX and there was no law enforcement response for many minutes? If the guy wanted to, he could’ve shot over a hundred people before the police finally got around to him. Why aren’t there armed guards throughout airports?
Benny: “Hindsight is 20/20. Perhaps the shooter waited and watched to ensure no police officer was in the vicinity. Perhaps notification that a shooting took place took a little time because people were unsure and/or busy running. Or, we can raise taxes and put a cop every 20 feet…your choice.”
Benny, we spend billions for unionized “Homeland Security” and the TSA, which, from my experience, seems to be dominantly staffed by idiots x-raying grandmas and doing other useless work. Something is wrong.
