I guess if you're not really familiar with IRL gun fire, you could think it was something else

Wow, sends shivers down my back. Have been in that area many times, including last week. I wonder what he saw that made him decide that was the time to pull the gun? Just awful.

Maybe the women, but there's no way those old dudes had never shot a weapon. Most of them probably served in something decades ago.

BTW, people hiding behind luggage carts is weird. I would be running my arse off away from the scene.


I would have been running a 10 second flat, 100 yard dash down that terminal in the opposite direction. Diving on the ground 15 yards from this dude is something I certainly would NOT have done.

That's exactly what it is. It doesn't sound the way it does in movies and on video games, not to mention it would take an older person a second or two longer to actually register what is happening.

Difficult to watch. Hope this idiot gets the death penalty.

Crazy. I hope none of the victims were in the video for their family's sake

I haven't been paying attention, but its odd to me he only took 13 shots? What happened did he only have one clip (meant for the guys that hate that term) and run out of ammo? I agree when I first read the story it sounded like some kind of assassination on a victim that was made out to look like terrorism but who knows.

I'm not sure what anyone expected, pretty much how they all look. There's no way those old folks didn't know what was going on, they were looking right at the guy. Its just how people react with little or no experience or training in high stress situations though.

The victims had their back to him... freaking coward. A bunch of happy old people getting ready to meet family for a cruise.

Agreed a total POS. But the older lady hiding behind the luggage cart?

I hate to watch people simply stop and hunker down during active shooter situations.

Wait, so he took 13 shots, killed 5 and wounded 8?

That's pretty damn efficient shooting. fricked up, but efficient.

It looks like he shoots someone in the chest in the lower left. He is blurred out.

It amazes me that people STILL immediately hit the floor and lie on the ground in active shooter situations. RUN AWAY. You are just a sitting duck if you lie on the ground.

frick this guy.
