Hopefully just a robbery and people are just very anxious. These random mass killings don't happen THAT often (not trying to downplay it but most mass shootings aren't random attacks.)

My brother just left my house to that mall maybe 10 minutes ago lol. He texted me saying its flooded with cops.

"GAF, I just robbed a jewelry store, what do?"

White Mans rule.

It's a strange fucking feeling to be relieved that a robbery occurred instead of a mass shooting. Like, damn.

It's called 'relief.' Strange indeed.

Still people with guns with innocents around. Doesn't matter if its a mass shooting or not.

 

[victreeb3l]

Damn dude I hope youre safe :O

 

[Perfect Blue]

Yeah, no doubt. Just weird to me that I'm hoping it's one slightly less violent act (robbery) as opposed to be a more violent one (mass shooting). Never thought of it this way before.

I'd rather be around a robber than someone out on a killing spree.

 

[Diablos]

Glad you are safe, man. Hope you're getting the hell away from there and back home asap.

Might not be guns though, just some hammer bros.

Still scary though.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I also get the added bonus of seeing guns everywhere, and I'm anti gun. I live in an open carry state. Fun times.

Well sitting at home drinking my beer now, yeah that was pretty surreal and yes I did give a statement to an officer as for it being a smash and grab I sure hope that's all it was. The guy with the gun may or may not have been a shooter maybe have been an off duty officer or even someone with a conceal carry I don't know I wasn't going to go ask him. Wife is shaken but I'm aiight.

 

[Seesaw15]

Still scary though.

Even worse in my opinion.

Glad you're safe OP.

 

[oc]

Was only a "smash and grab" robbery according to a councilman. Pretty scary tho.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Glad your Safe dude.

I was about to say, that is the most GAF thing ever.

Most GAF thing ever would be to post outrage in that FF7r is gonna be episodic thread and then evacuate the building.

Take care duder.

 

[akira28]

I wonder if it was just display glass.

 

[BokehKing]

Glad you're ok OP

Pray we never have to get a play by play by a GAF member during one of these horrible shootings

That's a lot of blue

 

[Rainy]

Glad you're okay OP, hope everyone else is too.

 

[jett]

Good thing that nothing happened.

How sad to live with the fear that a mass shooting could happen anywhere at any time.

I think these robbers might get caught...

Justifiably so.

Gun at a mall during a busy holiday season. Riverside PD is responding the right way.

Bad day to rob a place...

 

[TheExecutive]

Holy crap. Hope everyone is safe. At least it appears the motive was for inanimate objects and not just to senselessly kill people.

 

[Liberty4all]

At least 30+ police cars in that picture ... Holy!

 

[maquiladora]

Fuck....was worried this was going to be bad when I saw the title.

 

[hitmon]

Glad to read you're ok OP.

 

[SteveO409]

wish a mod would change the title.

 

[IsntChrisL]

My roommate works there. She got a call from her employees about shots being fired right after it happened.

You know it's sad when we are relieved to find out it was just a robbery.

 

[killer rin]

Holy shit man. Stay safe.

Edit: Glad to see that you both got out safely and that it seems to only be a robbery. Hopefully the Police get these guys

[ThreePiMatt]

Why rob a store in a mall... Wtf.

Glad it's not just a mass random shooting at least.

Especially this time of year when a million people are going to see you do it.

lol

 

[The Artful Dodger]

At this point, I have to laugh. Carrying Sledgehammers with you into a mall for a smash and grab is the most Riverside thing ever.

 

[thefit]

Looks at these cock suckers ruining my day.

[SpecX]

Holy shit, not to undermine the situation but glad it wasn't a shooting. These things keep getting closer to the city we live in. Planning in doing major shopping next week at the Moreno Valley and Temecula malls, hopefully nothing goes down there.

Holy Crap.

Thank goodness there were no guns involve just hammers but still, imagine those assholes decide to hit people with it.

 

[Exokell]

This is, what, a 20 minute drive from San Bernardino?

Lmao gl with that drive. Anyway there's a lot of inland empire gaffers here. It's crazy a robbery happened inside a mall.
