<p>[Report:</a> Gunshots fired at LAX Terminal 3](<a href=“http://news.msn.com/us/report-gunshots-fired-at-lax-terminal-3-1]Report:”>http://news.msn.com/us/report-gunshots-fired-at-lax-terminal-3-1)</p>
<p>Fox Sports columnist Bill Reiter happened to be there and is live tweeting. I don’t think I can link but it’s easy to google.</p>
<p>Wonderful. :(</p>
<p>Sigh. Because travel isn’t stressful enough…</p>
<p>oh great…</p>
<p>One TSA dead.</p>
<p>News just reported that the shooter was also a TSA agent who knew the person who died. This seems to have been personal.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Despite the public setting, that seemed from the beginning like the most likely explanation.</p>
<p>I hope the bullets knew that.</p>
<p>Since several other people were hurt, clearly not, 07DAD. But it doesn’t appear to have been part of any larger effort directed at travelers. I think that’s important to note.</p>
<p>Aside from the shooting itself, there’s a possibility of being trampled to death in stairwells, etc that comes with panic. Doesn’t appear that there’s any injuries like that, thankfully. </p>
<p>Too scary. Too common.</p>
<p>He (who shall not be named) now is being described as a 23 yo “anti-government” guy with an assault weapon.</p>
<p>Terrific…family member flying home from New Mexico today. Hope there are no further injuries at LAX…and that air traffic isn’t all snarled up as a result.</p>
<p>What kind of crazy world do we live in. And HOW did someone with an assault weapon get IN the airport?</p>
<p>A bit about the shooter:</p>

<p>Thumper, maybe it was in a carry-on type bag and he took it out once he got near airport security. Or maybe hidden under a coat. </p>
<p>I can’t imagine he walked into the airport holding in weapon in his hand.</p>
<p>Oh no…how terrible. It looks like many flights have been cancelled or delayed.</p>
<p>thumper I flew home from New Mexico yesterday through LAX to SFO.</p>
<p>Just like the Aseana crash, LAX passengers were fleeing with their luggage. </p>
<p>Dude, when someone is shooting at you, let go of the wheelie bag…</p>
<p>Sounds like it was a very scary time for all the passengers and a lot of chaos. Glad so few were injured. Very, very sad. </p>
<p>Was just thinking how pleasant our three flights over the past two weeks have been. I was pre-screened so didn’t need to remove my shoes. Didn’t need to take off belt, light jacket or remove electronics or bag of liquids. </p>
<p>S, D, and we fly thru LAX a lot, so glad it was so in eventful. D will be flying back into LA in the near future, hopefully after things are calmed down again.</p>
<p>Husband is in the air right now. All I can do is pray for his safety.</p>
<p>I am sure everyone else is fine- same risks as any other day. Seems to have very much just been a lone nut.</p>
<p>Given his name, apparent motivation, and low death count, I suspect this story won’t be in the headlines too long.</p>
<p>Bookreader…my husband is in the air now too.</p>
