How did he get a gun into the airport? Do we have to put metal detectors and conduct strip searches just to enter an airport now?

My mom's flight is leaving in 10 minutes in Inchon, Korea. Hopefully, all is well.

Putting metal detectors at the entry gate would worsen the traffic around the area but it is a good idea. LAX must have more efficient method to prevent this kind of tragedy happens once again. Also those security personnel are lazy and judgemental. They are supposed to check the trunk of each car when entering the parking structure. However, they never did when I drive the Lexus. Indeed, if they check every trunk, the traffic will definitely back on to 105 but there must be some way.... Not every terrorist drives a bad car. They could be very rich....

Well... think of it this way. While I'm sorry for the families of the people that died at LAX :( , if that's the worst thing terrorists can do on the fourth of July... Hehehehehehe... How pathetic is that. :heh: :heh:

Yeah, but some of those high schools are more dangerous to be in than an airport full of terrorists. :(

My best friend works at an LAX ticket counter, right next to the International terminal. Thank goodness she wasn't working yesterday! :)
