Lovely headline: The shooter "had 'weird look'" -- yeah, the hockey mask and the AR-15 tend to do that to mall visitors. In Mad Max world, it's perfectly normal.

Killer: Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, using a stolen AR-15
Victims: Steven Mathew Forsyth, 45; Cindy Ann Yuille, 54; Kristina Shevchenko, 15, is in serious condition

Strangely enough, the possibly-tactless question I asked in my OP (about attitudes toward holiday shopping) was one of the primary things the OPB news discussed in their local news broadcast this morning: how malls are adding uniformed police officers to re-instate the feeling of safety shoppers expect.
