1. This is sad, but predictable

I’m sorry people were injured.

But this is exactly what happens when enough people start running around with loaded guns.

In this instance it was an accident with limited casualties and no deaths.

One day, there will be a “bad guy with a gun” in some public place, maybe the mall, that shoots his weapon.

A “good guy with a gun” will be there and take matters into his own hands and fire back. Other bystanders will be armed and fire back.

It’s entirely possible for a full blown gunfight to break out in a mall like this.

God only knows how many people will be hit by “friendly fire” from one of the “good guys” in a scenario like this.
