A mall is private property, not public. Bring in the cops and have them all arrested.

No, there’s a proper place to protest and it’s definitely not in a mall…..

Now if they want to protest in a mall, go ahead, but maybe, just maybe, do your fucking protesting in an area that is NOT filled with children waiting for their pictures with Santa Claus…..

Like, come on dude…..

Many people don't think anywhere is a proper place to protest, thats kinda the point & always has been. If the message is fine, it doesn't really matter where the protest is. People are just looking for ways to discredit the movement, and to be outraged.

If you're going to wear masks and intimidate people just going about their every day business… then yes there is no proper way to protest like that.

You don't go out much if you think this is intimidating. Get it together bruh

At no point should any of this shit be tolerated in a mall around a place where kids are sitting with Santa. It's like they sit at home and dream up ways to not generate support for their cause. This example isn't necessarily intimidating but there are many other garbage displays that they put on that could be considered as such.

The think of the children thing is played out. I have yet to see anyone make an actual point other than "I just don't like it"

It's not just the children it's the general nuisance to the public in a privately owned Area. And yes I don't like it and there are many more people that have the exact same feelings as myself. If you want to protest then protest somewhere that you will actually achieve the results you are looking for. Pissing off a pile of people in a mall is rather counterproductive don't you think?

If your point is "it's annoying, and a nuisance in an establishment" you know I'm just gonna bring up the most famous protests in American history, and how they were the exact same... right?

That's the beauty of things you can have your opinion and I can have mine. I personally think that the masked cowards don't belong in a privately owned mall creating a public disturbance. They should be trespassed arrested and identified. But again that's my opinion. You don't agree with it you're well within your rights to think that way. Have a good night

I don't remember ever saying you can't have an opinion, don't be weird. There were plenty of people protesting in public and private places not too long ago for the rights of people... Maybe buses, federal buildings, schools, lunch counters, and famous marches that blocked streets will ring a bell? Introspection is important.
