"Anti-government sentiment". That appears to be the new catchphrase
stemming from the shooting at LAX. Apparently the guy was targeting TSA
workers. I suspect that to be the next new narrative, and I expect it
to be used as a lever to try to ram through even more gun control
legislation. I also suspect it won't go over that well, since it's has
very definite 1984-ish overtones.
Just for the record, if you have concerns about the TSA as an
organization (and I have many), gunning down presumably random TSA
employees is not the way to make a statement. They are just Average
Joes trying to make a living. I hate "security theater" as much as the
next guy, but nothing I've seen or heard about justifies any level of
violence against TSA agents, let alone murdering one. It's not like they
are clubbing airline passengers with billy-clubs.
