More and more law abiding citizens have concealed pistol permits, issued by their local sheriff, and would like to carry at a mall for personal protection. Sad, but many malls are gun-free-zones (some say killing-zones) and legally do not permit any weapons - but criminals don't care. Trump for president.
I'm a boomer. I remember the rise of malls & the decline of shopping centers & downtown shopping districts. Malls have lost their luster.
Arming people to the teeth is no more of an answer than blaming any single group of people. People need jobs that pay a living wage.
Lol. Come to Danbury Mall in Connecticut some day and see if that applies. You can barely get a parking space. Its more a southern problem with the crime unless you are in one of the urban cities up here at malls..lets face it.

Malls have also been failing in Philadelphia & South Jersey. I think that some have failed in Maryland as well.
Not sure what Trump for President has to do with shopping malls. Having more guns is not the answer. Fighting fire with fire does not always solve the problem, the Iraq war proved that.
Education and more mental screening for gun control would be a good place to start. Having a bunch of armed Soccer Moms would be worse than no guns at all. I speak from experience, most ordinary people cannot accurately fire a pistol when under stress, they flounder.
