I want to hear from our Marylanders that they are okay as well.
Thank you for checking up on us, momtothree. I live in Howard County and go to the Columbia Mall fairly regularly, but I was not there today. I have several friends who were either en route to the Mall or were planning on going there today, but to my knowledge no one I know was there when it happened.
Almost every time I go to the Mall, I eat at the Food Court. I don't patronize Zumiez (I'm not in their target demographic) but I've certainly passed by it often enough. I know it's cliché, but I do have a hard time wrapping my mind around the concept that, yes, it can happen here.

It’s happened before, just didn’t get national headlines when we are in a craze hoping every shooting is a mass murder.
A few years ago some gangbangers (in Kolumbia? NO!) got in a fight outside JCP and people died. Many years ago, I think before the huge renovation, an armored truck was robbed in the parking lot outside Sears (i.e., near mall entrance where the shooter was located today) and driver killed or such.
Oh, it happens. Kolumbiites just pretend it doesn’t in their oh-so-perfect diverse Heaven made by God Rouse.
