If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts; if you have the law on your side, pound the law; if you have neither the facts nor the law, pound the table.

That’s the adage as i remember it.

Officers responded to Terminal J around 11:30 p.m. after reports of a stabbing, officials said in a news release. The victim was eating a meal while sitting on the floor when, officials say, Love attacked her without provocation, stabbing her about 18 times in her face, head, arms, shoulders, neck and legs before he tried to throw her over a safety retaining glass, officials said.

“The victim was able to escape the attack and ran down the stairs to the third-floor level, which is where the officers found her,” police said.

Airports that late are just creepy in general considering how empty they are. I’ve been in them and rarely seen anyone beyond a handful of passengers and some janitors in those concourses when I was waiting for a late night flight. I could absolutely see someone being attacked in one for any number of reasons. I’m glad she was able to escape and he was caught.

Old Sleepy Don. It’s what you do when your own weak campaign can’t raise cash like the Dems.

How did the attacker have a knife in a secure terminal?

cbarrick ,

He didn’t. The attack occurred in the pre-security area.

Where does it mention secure terminal?

@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The article says “officers responded to [an incident in] terminal J”. Every airport I’ve ever seen, large and small, have had the terminal behind security.

Are you claiming that there are metal detectors and agents at every single entrance at every airport you’ve been in?
Are you confused as to what a terminal is?

You must be lost, bud. Reddit is that-a-way.

Maybe I should have started all this by saying I’m not an airport expert. I’m a dude who has flown on planes before.

I’ve always understood the terminal to be the waiting area that the plane pulls up too—in other words, the journey terminates at the terminal gate. Yes, I have only ever seen that area assessable after you’ve passed security—at least it’s been that way post 9/11.

If there is some nuance here where a terminal includes some parts outside of security, just say that. The tone I perceive in your post seems to be trying to make me look like a fool, and I don’t appreciate it.

ipkpjersi ,

FWIW, I’m a dude who has flown on planes before and my understanding of terminals was the same as yours.

The terminal includes everything from check in to baggage pick up, before and after security, and often includes a food court and shops that are before security.

Maybe you’re thinking of the “gate area” of the terminal? That’s behind security.

WeirdGoesPro ,
@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The baggage check area often leads to multiple lettered sections with collections of gates.

If the terminal is all of it, what is the letter designated collection of gates called?

How the fuck did this guy get a butcher knife into an airport?

Thank god for the TSA, keeping us all safe from 4oz of shampoo and water bottles, though, right?

cbarrick ,

He didn’t. The attack occurred in the pre-security area.

By walking through the front doors, as at most airports in the world.
You realize walking into an airport is no different than walking into a mall?

KeefChief13 ,

I think one has planes.

dogsnest ,
@dogsnest@lemmy.world avatar

And?

Anyone, anytime can stroll into any airport.

Can’t you?

catloaf ,

No. Tegel Airport, soon as you walked in, you were at security.

It’s closed now, but that only means you can’t even stroll in at all.

dogsnest ,
@dogsnest@lemmy.world avatar

Curious.
Was every person, passenger or not, screened?

catloaf ,

If you went in, yes, you went through security. There was no pre-security area.

dogsnest ,
@dogsnest@lemmy.world avatar

That would be the least-fun trip to the airport ever.

Not that any of the big ones are “fun”, anymore.

When I was younger a man joined our church and decided to teach Sunday school. He one day attacked a girl just after his class finished and did it as a church service was going on and fled carrying the knife through the congregation up the aisle out the front door. This made me remember this for some reason.

Plot twist: OP is the assailant.

Edit: apparently /s was required.

No, we understood the comment, we just thought it wasn’t funny and in poor taste. Adding “/s” doesn’t automatically make something funny.

Fair enough.

Officials said that at the police station, Love admitted to being involved in the attack and said he had become acquainted with the victim beforehand.

“The defendant added he was possibly drugged and someone inserted an unknown object in his rectum,” the report says. “Although the defendant is not certain the victim is responsible for this, the defendant made a statement indicating he needed to hurt whoever hurt him and was prompted to purchase the knife at a Target store near Miami International Airport.”

Ah yes, the good ol’ transphobic psychosis combo (it’s actually more common than you’d think, mental illness can showcase some hidden inner prejudices that people normally mask better in some pretty ugly ways). Those biases are really deeply interwoven into our society and they often worm their way right into those that are already psychologically vulnerable, then they wind up featuring strongly in delusions and hallucinations.

It can also be genuinely trauma related, a lot of my patients have been bouncing between the street, correctional and psychiatric institutions, and shelters, any one of which a sexual assault can and is often even likely to happen in. Traumas are another thing that frequently pop up in people’s hallucinations and delusions.

One time we had a newly admitted patient literally covering their clenched butt with their hands while waddling down the hall and looking around suspiciously. It was kind of humorous to watch but in that dark, sad way that hospital shit gets sometimes.

Yeah, I’m trans and I have an aunt with schizophrenia. After I came out she started behaving very strangely whenever I am around. For example, she doesn’t call me by my name or my deadname, and instead makes up strange nonsense words that she calls me. Then she gets angry when someone tries to correct her. I only see her at holidays and I always dread going whenever she has been invited because she makes me very uncomfortable.

Lets see if we can find a way to delay the complaint until after the election.

aseriesoftubes ,

There’s no need to force a delay; the FEC moves at a snail’s pace. They’re still working on cases from the 2016 election.

Working is a strong word. It’s more regulatory capture and violators release.
