  1. why so many incidents at the South Coast Plaza? it’s so funny because I was looking at a tourist brochure about it and I think I changed my mind about giving it a try. one time around 2018 I was in a women’s fashion store at the Ventura California mall when a crazy woman charged in, started cussing at the cashier and screaming as she left, threatened the woman. what’s wrong with people? be careful who you make angry.
