    Why is it shots fired instead of being called machete wielding mad man? They always make it sound like the bad ppl did the shooting. But hell, he put his big knife and bug spray to use.

    That headline went out as soon as it happened and they had no clue what was actually going on other than what police put out over the radio. They should update it, but they won't. In news broadcasting getting it out first trumps getting it out accurate.

    Should have just shot his chopping arm

    I disagree. They didn't have to shoot him at all, why not just calmly ask him to stop attacking? Or threaten with a baton, or use a tazer? If all of the above fail them the last trapper would to be shoot the machete out of his hand.

    **sarcasm for those who don't pick up on it**

    Last night after the Sheriff made his statement the "news" anchor still called the perp the "alleged shooter".
    The Sheriff explained the situation well, stating the only shots fired were from an officer.
    But these douches continue to push their agenda.

    The fact that a judicious application of a firearm stopped the rampage has surely pissed off the left!! I Love It!!

    Armed attacker at a major airport injures several, relatively little coverage. Too bad it wasn't a gun, this would be all over the place even if nobody had been hurt.

    Where hasn't it been covered?
