6. True, but it does seem like there is an abundance of shooting or killing in stores going on lately

8. Shootings occur in stores pretty much every day
Mostly liquor stores and pawn shops, but it happens anywhere that cash and criminals converge.

12. Different situation entirely. I was assigned years ago to make our
front lobby "bullet-proof" and I had to explain to the big bosses that there is no such thing. You can make something bullet resistant, but there are a lot of big guns out there.

At the time, getting shot at work was a major if not the major cause for work place fatalities!

13. Only if they advertised super duper specials for people with loaded guns.
I don't think that was what this was though.

14. Not exactly the blue light special most people would want.
"Code blue on aisle 6" no longer means you get three pallets of toilet paper for the price of one...
