Our 15 year old grand niece was dropped off at the Parks Mall in Arlington Tx. today by her dad along with 2 of her friends. He was going to let them shop for a couple of hours and come back to pick them up. While they were buying ice cream, a security guard came up to them and asked them how old they were. After they told him, he asked if their parents were at the mall. They told him no. He then told them that anyone under the age of 18 was not allowed to be at the mall without their parents and they needed to leave immediately. The girls were scared and confused so they went outside and thankfully my niece called her dad immediately. He told her to go back into the mall where there were many people and he was on his way to get her. So everything turned out ok. However, this is how these evil people work and our kids need to be educated on what their rights are and what to do when something like this happens. It would have been great if our niece would have pulled out her phone and recoded this and gotten the name of the security officer that did this. The mall will be hearing from our family about this so please pray that we will identify this obvious sexual predator and whatever bigger group is behind this.

Obnoxious teenagers are one of the main reasons I haven't been to the mall in years. I'm pretty sure underage teens are banned in most of them these days, though. The man was just doing his job.
Illegal immigrants for me. They even revamped a mall trying to get non-Hispanics back in, but it only worked for like six months. They have a police station in that mall too.
Utah. And believe it or not, I'm not referring to the place that's literally called "Latino Mall". That, however is nearby. The entire area is little Mexico. I spoke with a Californian recently who said that her husband likes the area because "it reminds him of Compton." I don't like going anywhere near there.
I hear that playing classical music tend to ward off many undesirable elements
