An unemployed motorcycle mechanic who gunned down airport screening officers at Los Angeles International Airport in a 2013 attack that sent passengers running for their lives pleaded guilty Tuesday to murder and 10 other charges.
Paul Ciancia agreed last week to plead guilty to all 11 charges in the rampage that killed one officer and wounded two others and a teacher who was headed for a flight.
Ciancia, 26, was spared the death penalty by entering the plea but faces a mandatory life term in prison.
[...] Ciancia, who was living in the Los Angeles area after growing up in Pennsville, New Jersey, said in the note that he wanted to kill at least one TSA officer but hoped to kill more.
"If you want to play that game where you pretend that every American is a terrorist, you're going to learn what a self-fulfilling prophecy is," his note said, according to court documents.
The note added, "I want to instill fear in your traitorous minds. I want it to always be in the back of your head just how easy it is to take a weapon to the beginning of your Nazi checkpoints."
Ciancia signed the note with his name, adding beneath it, "Pissed-off Patriot."

You are presumably a male and thus presumably have a penis. Thus you have the equipment and a potential motive to rape someone else. Please report to your nearest federal government center to apply for your penis-possession license.
More plainly: it doesn't matter how unsafe you feel regarding other people doing things you are afraid of, because you have zero authority to make them take any action so long as they am not actually harming you or your property. Because you have no such authority, you therefore cannot delegate something you don't have to a government. If you choose to live in a sardine box with other fish that possess teeth, you have no authority to demand the other fishes' teeth be pulled because you're nervous about the possibility of being bitten. If you want to feel safer from other people, try moving your own self away from the people you're scared of - you DO have THAT authority.
