    why would he bother shooting his assault rifle in the air a couple of times before shooting himself if his goal was to shoot others?

    why do you think he brought an assault rifle to the airport in the first place?

    ...and are you trying to diminish the job the air marshal did?

    Who wants to dry-fire?? That **** will rub your raw. Need to squeeze off a few rounds in the air to make sure your load is ready to go.

    It's an odd scenario for sure. The AR could have jammed perhaps and his Mk-ultra programming stipulated that he skin his smoke-wagon and waste himself at that point.

    That's crazy. This morning I woke up, cooked some eggs and ate my breakfast. Then I read a book and took a nap.

    This mother ****ing shooter could have killed me.

    Glad to hear noone except for the shooter was hurt. It initially sounded like the El Al shooting at LAX in 2002.
