At this stage it is too early to tell if this was part of a terrorist attack or just another nut with a gun... (like there's a difference)

But once again standby for Airport security to be tightened even more.

The fact that this happened on July 4th.....???

I doubt it has to do with terrorism ... probably a vendetta being carried out on independence day, but I could be wrong...

It's almost a given that security in public places in ALL states have been tightened on the Fourth ... it's the most logical thing to do, given the present circumstances...

heh, definitely not terrorism, at least of the organized variety. probably some anti-semitic nut. a lone gunman that only managed to kill one person is hardly a terrorist plot. this is no more terrorism than some nutcase going into work and shooting the place up.

Next thing people will start blowing themselves up on buses and other public transportation like in other countries! Soon you won't want to leave your house for fear that you may not return!

We've been forewarned of this.

CNN has the full story -- it's a bit more complex than one guy getting shot by another guy.

"In December 1985 at the El Al airport ticket counter in Rome, terrorists threw grenades and opened fire with semi-automatic weapons, killing 17 people and wounding more than 100. "

that is terrorism. what happened today is just a nutjob with a grudge, more than likely. i would be very surprised to find out he belonged to hamas or any other organized group..
