Yes but if he thought that a large percentage of the folks in the terminal were armed, he would have had second thoughts about doing it in the first place!Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostFortunately he was subdued without the help of private citizens legally carrying weapons."It's true that everything happens for a reason.

I do that every day when I take my family to about anywhere in Texas (notable exceptions are schools, churches, and airports). Where is it is scary is Utah and Arizona where folks carry guns without having to demonstrate they are proficient in shooting one. In fact, I don't believe you even need a CHL to carry a gun in Arizona.

You can't conceal carry a gun in Texas without license that requires demonstrating that you can shoot one. That is not the case in Utah. You can conceal carry a gun there without knowing how to shoot it. I feel sorry 4 Utahns.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostYou can't carry guns?

So in your mind there is inherently something scarier about armed people at the airport than other public places?Originally posted by falafel View PostNot at the airport you didn't."It's true that everything happens for a reason.

And yet the gun crime rate in Texas is far higher than it is in Utah.

Yes. I would include other similar places where there are lots of people in confined areas and limited exits. Sports stadiums, schools, court houses, etc.Originally posted by FMCoug View PostSo in your mind there is inherently something scarier about armed people at the airport than other public places?Ain't it like most people, I'm no different.
