New Jersey, Alabama and Georgia malls end in brawls between last minute holiday shoppers
Again, what's your point? That we needs to keep Blacks out of shopping establishmental? I can't think of any other reason race is being made the forefront of this.

I agree, but as we see some only see color.

That is true. This is my theory. Said persons want those "good old days" back. The days of Jim Crow.

Seems most were precipitated by announcements of intended fights between teens on social media. This seems to have compelled thousands of teens to turn out to watch. Some malls experienced simultaneous fights at different locations throughout the mall.

The power of Social Media ...........
Was there some sort of occasion for all this coordinated fighting?

I seldom do online shopping. I want the stuff in my hand immediately. No patience on my part.

You literally could Google the story yourself, but I know you won't, because you won't like what you find.

I do not blame Obama for kids fighting in the malls. Teens have been congregating in malls for decades. It's increased over time but that is attributable to more dense populations.
Are you doing this on purpose? I actually really hope so.

It was the last major story off the top of my head where literally hundreds (in this case thousands) of teens caused a mall to shut down.

Sheesh.

No one has shown any proof it was coordinated.

Just post-Christmas large groups of teens go to the malls everywhere and in 1% of the malls there were some fights or whatnot. *shrug*

Really, if you think about it Dec 26 is THE busiest mall day of the year for that age group.
