We were at the Mall of America.
My entire family, plus our oldest’s partner and my nibling.
Sitting on the top floor enjoying some tacos.
Then screams, and a rush of people running toward us.
There were gunshots fired nearby.
Everyone running toward us.
I live in North Mpls which means I have seen and heard some shit.
So believe me when I tell you:
I have never — NEVER — experienced such terror or chaos.
You cannot be ready for that.
You cannot active-shooter-drill your way to preparedness.
I got Eli (11) and Max (21) down two flights of escalators (why aren’t those immediately deactivated in an event like that???), and immediately searched for Matt & Leah (who were nearby).

Then all of us wondered where Paul (spouse) was — he was still inside, nearing the exit.
