From: "Robert G Lewis" 

Based on the news articles they were only wearing the t shirts. Most people
think of Malls and Shopping centers as public places and do not think of
dress codes.One of the wearers kept asking for an explanation of why he had
to change and per that article was never told. Also the rules were
inconsistently enforced. So I can understand why people are upset ( aside
from the loony left who would be upset no matter what the circumstances
are).  Personally I think I would go shopping and when asked to leave say
let me return my purchases first , remove the shirts and return everything
I bought explaining that since I was being singled out and had been told I
wasn't wanted as a shopper there ......
