Sign of the times. Haven't the last eight years been worth it!
What airport was just evacuated because someone 'thought' they "saw" someone with a gun? (No one was found and the police confirmed that no shots were fired and no shell casings were ever found...hey dumbass, no one said "shots were fired" only that someone thought they saw someone with a gun.) But hey for an "abundance of caution" lets evacuate 10,000 people and cancel 250 flights and then re-screen everyone.
Cops, agents, and yes even Air Marshals carry guns in the airport, feel sorry for the dumbass that got his shirt caught over his piece...(no not really) but it happens.
(ETA: JFK. I get confused it's too many each week.)
