People are coming in with a good attitude looking to spend money. We asked a mother why theyre still excited to take picks with santa. One kid is 20 years old. He wants to continue to do it. For as long as they can. Its ridiculous but they love it. Consumers have already spent 2 billion online this black friday. Even so a lot of shoppers say they actually want to come to the mall. Because they want to take a breather. Why in store vs. Online . I didnt think it would be that crowded. I was right. And i like instant. I dont like waiting. Others say they shop in person because you never know what youll get. We won a raffle. This was not on the list . No. To the man who possibly knows the best, mr. Clause himself.

Senator klobuchar on her thoughts on gun violence legislation followed by Chuck Schumer and john cornyn majority whip. Think about the incredible courage of the people who were in dayton and el paso and odessa. Literally shielding her baby from death and she perished herself from gunshot wounds that she kept that baby alive. Or how about the grandpa who died shielding his wife and granddaughter for the offduty soldier who carry children away to safety. All that happened in that store. As we approach the anniversary of 9 11, i think also of the First Responders and all of these Mass Shootings and dayton ohio who got there in one minute but still be lost nine people in 30 seconds but they were there in one minute and saved so many lives.
