Forget Transporting guns on planes in CA

[Blade Gunner]

Airports are controlled by the feds. Airport property is federal.

However... try checking a firearm at JFK or LaGuardia. Port Authority will be on your *** so fast.

All commercial civilian airports in the US are locally owned except one (Reagan National). Due to Federal law, airlines cannot ban you from transporting firearms if you adhere to the protocol. Cities(owners of the airport) also cannot ban airlines from transporting firearms due to the aforementioned Federal supremacy. But they can ban firearms on airport property even in checked (or to be checked) luggage. So you live in a free state, lawfully checking your locked case firearm, fly to SFO, go to pick it up at special handling and SF airport police are waiting for you there with handcuffs.
I'm not giving the Progs ideas, Kevin DeLeon, LA and San Fran Prog politicos are already busily drafting emergency legislation this week end.

There was no TSA or armed security near luggage claims that thought it particularly odd when they saw him unlocking a firearm case?

Dropped my cable channels so what did he use as his snackbar of choice?

First report I saw said he retrieved his bag went to the men's room, and stared shooting when he came out.

Why would they?

Exactly, Every LEO and CCW in the nation retrieves their luggage and goes to the rest room to re-arm. Nothing to raise a flag here.

Real question is why did we cut TSA Budget so much there were no armed TSA in Baggage claims to quickly return fire.

Real issue is he felt Baggage claims was a soft target. Minute he got resistance he surrendered. If he thought he was going to get immediate resistance he would have gone somewhere else safe like a school.

KNX radio had a bit from the director of HLS at LAX... and he sounds like the ultimate hoplophobe; a title for which I thought only those with a uterus were capable of, when talking about persons who may transport a declared firearm.

That said, another! person in authority suggested that "that won't change"... If I want to take my rifle with me on a hunt, it will be checked baggage and according to existing airline protocol.

This is some of the worst knee-jerk reaction to a madman I have ever seen.

Agree absolutely the worst knee jerk reaction, but the second rule of politics (after getting elected) is never let a good crisis or tragedy go to waste. The Fed will make some changes to the protocol of air transportation of firearms, but the Prog states/counties/cities will ban it on their property. The Progs view madman shootings as an opportunity, not a tragedy.

Ban restrooms in non-sterile zones. Better yet, ban all the restrooms. Those are not sterile anyway.

I was listening to a leftist commentator saying we should have airport screening 5 miles out from any airport. So what happens when some jihadi shoots up the crowds being screened 5 miles out?

Based on the typical intelligent decisions, they move it to 6 miles out.

Although FAA controls air transportation, the airports are controlled by state and local authorities. California will once again "lead the way" and ban air transport of private firearms through airports. Also any former military that seek treatment for PTSD will become non permitted persons in CA. A made for politics event. DeLeon and Newscum will be all over this.

Have you forgotten this:

There is zero difference in the gun and the shooter coming in from the plane, or coming in from the street. CA isn't going to change anything.

Oh learned Librarian, wisest of the wise, while I am always humbled by your gracious acts of group enlightenment, some how this news tidbit slipped by you. Florida airport shooting. Shooter had gun in checked baggage. Picked up bag,went to men's room, loaded up, came out shooting. While the CA state and local Prog legislatures are not in session, expect political pronouncements on Monday. San Francisco and LA will be the first to act.

Ah. I was aware of the shooting.

But I typically wait for an actual political act before posting such a thread. Not everyone shares, nor needs to share, my reticence.

Oh I remember that. The difference is that shooter walked into the airport with a loaded weapon with no case. He had no intention of checking in. We'll know in a week what excremento and the Prog villages are going to do.

I have never seen so much cowering in fear as in this thread.

Actually, it's in most threads that deal with these events.

Some of y'all need to grow a pair.

Well taken. I see your point.

Is this a 'free floating anxiety' or do you have a particular event or announcement in mind?

My thoughts too

Some prognostication, but a lot of chicken little comments and fear comments.
