Shooting (plus explosives found) at Brooklyn subway

Hey guys, this news just came in about the shooting at one of the Brooklyn subways. Seems like quite a number are injured and the gunman is still on the run. Don't know how to feel about it ...especially when it's not just guns involved, but there was said that they found some detonative devices. That is just scary. It could have been any other subway too. 

Anyone feeling shaken or is this something we should not worry about too much? I am an incoming analyst going to NYC so it's just been kinda worrying for me to see this kind of news. I already been seeing the news about Asian hate crime and stuff that happens day to day but this is some other kind of scary. 

How to even take the subway when it doesn't feel safe? And companies still want us coming back to the office.....

Yeah, the subway’s unsafe… unlike movie theaters in CO… or nightclubs in Florida…. or festivals in Las Vegas… or churches in TX… kindergartens in CT… colleges in VA… mass shootings are awful, absolutely, but let’s not pretend like this is in any way unique to the location. Also, no explosives were found, although there were smoke grenades
