I'm not sure I understand your perspective as the incident had nothing to do with shopping and everything to do with an individual going to a place where there are many people and attacking them. There is terrorism in Russia, England, Turkey, France...it is everywhere. We disguise it with other terms, but it is still attacks against people without provocation nor reason. Russian has it's own terrorism page on Wikipedia, and I remember the Moscow theater attack and hostage situation not that long ago. I long for the day when we can all live in peace, but I fear that our violent and argumentative nature will make that path a long one to travel. Thank you for your input. Traditions and culture may be different, but violence in one form or another is everywhere.

Thank God we don’t have such tradition of great sales in Russia. Although we have seasonal sales (low prices on winter clothes in summer, etc.) – we don’t have experience of such acts of terrorism. Our people are sure that they can go on shopping in days of sales without danger of being killed. Different countries, different traditions, different emotional characters…

Todah, Hatulie!

Thank you for being a part of a country that taught me what true courage and bravery is. I keep calling upon the lessons learned in my many years living there. Thank you for being such a fantastic example of how things should be (as well as not, LOL!).

Reblogged this on nebraskaenergyobserver and commented: The lady has a very strong point to make here, and I agree with her, notwithstanding my views on Christmas, which you all know.
