8 p.m. update:
Around 5:30 p.m., officers were dispatched to a call of an active shooter. As they arrived, there was a mass exodus of people leaving the mall."
This writer has zazz. I myself could not possibly keep a straight face while writing such copy, but somehow this gem made it to press. A kudos is warranted. What's the minimum number of people to qualify as an "exodus"? Isn't it when an entire cultural sub-group is unilaterally exiled? I don't think a stream of sheoples going in to look for "hot buys" in this day and age and wintry economic climate poses any doubt as to their identity as a "sub-group"; obvious degenerates, one and all.
But unless the adorable teens slingin' lead actually demanded the exile of all the shoppers, and didn't just spook the herd, "exodus" is really pushing it. What can I say? Fierce pride swells in my breast.
Or maybe that's the reflux.
