Play It Safe: Shop the Internet

I live about 50 minutes south of Tacoma and used to shop the mall there. Today's news about the shootings makes me think it's probably safer to stay at home and shop via the Internet! Just a couple of months ago the mall in Tukwila, the very mall I am blocks away from when I go to Modules, had a shooting incident as well, but I think that was in the parking lot. This saddens and troubles me that there is kind of violence so close to home. I've always thought of Washington as being a peaceful place, but since coming back home I keep hearing more and more shocking stories. It wouldn't surprise me if metal detectors are placed in the malls and we have to be screened before entering them.

It's even worse for the families involved. Their whole world has just been turned upside down. Even though no one has died in this, it is nonetheless traumatic. I'll watch the evening news to find out more. Egads!
