I recently ordered a can of hair spray online to pick up in the store. Before the associate would give me my package, I had to show photo ID. This has happened to me at quite a few retail stores.

Finger pointed and accusations just lead people to not trust anyone, even if they’re being helped. Why does this tragedy need to be a political issue?
