Macy's Shooting

First off... WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THIS WORLD??!! On Friday night, (last night), there was a shooting at a Washington mall. According to CNN.com, the shooter walked into the mall unarmed, killed 4 women in the makeup department, and then shot a man, who later died at the hospital. The man later walked out of the mall without a trace. The shooter is STILL on the loose. I am extremely mind boggled at the thought of someone walking into a mall, unarmed, murdering 5 people, and walking out without a trace. When you think about going shopping at a mall, you do not think something is going to go wrong, let a lone, be shopping in the makeup department, and lose your life. A mall is, in a weird way, a "safe place"... a place you walk freely, and never (or hardly ever) look behind your shoulder. Now, I will be looking over my shoulder.

  1. This is extremely scary! It is weird that I often imagine when I am in a big lecture classroom that someone is just going to walk in and open fire? I often have this underlying feeling. People often target places with a mass amount of people and no easy way out. It is sad that I as a citizen of the US have this feeling. I am sorry to those who lost their lives in this tragic pointless event, prayers to their families.

  3. I was just reading this same article and thinking the same thing. What is wrong with our world??? I don't understand all of the senseless violence. I personally love going to the mall and go pretty often. I don't want to have have to feel unsafe every time I want to go shopping and the same goes for when I'm working too.
