From: "Robert G Lewis" 

Depends on the state. Theres a whole MESS of sites on this. Some states
explicitly allow political activities in malls others do not. Nothing at
the Federal level requires it. If there is a goverment office in the mall
it would be more difficult to forbid protest.

Not that I know much about this. I just went looking on Google over the last few days
