That sheriff's deputy probably saved the lice of that TSA agent. The TSA agent says so anyway. The LEO shot three times and hit the guy with the machete three times. She rea ted within just a couple of seconds and ended what could have been a horrific situation. What if tbe guy got to the rest of the akrport with the machete and hid bag of MOLOTOV COCKTAILS? By the way, nobody else was hit by the three gunshots. The female deputy did a fantastic job that day.

I guess I assumed you understood I was referring Jenoch Mar 2015 #20

"The passenger" referred to the nutcase who was hit x3, and then killed. MADem Mar 2015 #21

Why would you refer to the perp as a 'passenger'? Jenoch Mar 2015 #22

Because you need a ticket to get into the sterile area. nt MADem Mar 2015 #23

You don't need a ticket Jenoch Mar 2015 #24

Most airports I know, by the time you get to where the TSA people are checking bags, MADem Mar 2015 #26

I still don't know why anyone would refer to him Jenoch Mar 2015 #28
