If the person is a peace officer then they are allowed to carry a concealed firearm.

TSO's aren't peace officers. And, as is clear in the article, they call police in the event of an incident. I don't know which police cover the airport in Philly...but in NY/NJ it's Port Authority Police.

I'd suggest you do your homework in this regard.

It doesn't bother any of you that a sworn officer of the law was so incompetent that he accidentally discharged a firearm in a public venue?

This is far from the first incident with law enforcement. The Glock had them looking stupid for quite a while. Dont put your damn finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot.

Yet year after year, we hear of someone shooting themselves while cleaning. Countless accidental discharges etc etc. Remember Ron Whites quote.....Sometimes you just cant.

That's not "man bites dog". Hell, it's not even "dog bites man" anymore. It's more along the lines of "dog takes a shit on the kitchen floor."

She may have had a permit, but shouldn't she have said she had a gun before she passed through the scanner?
