The Mall of America in Bloomington, MN is something to witness on Saturday nights.

They built the light rail train from downtown Minneapolis so what they have is entire gangs riding the train to the Mall and wreaking havoc. Of course the local media will not really report on it unless something big happens.

If I was a retailer at the Mall I would lock up early on Saturdays.

I don't like "O" either but it's tough to blame this one on him.
Retail is in decline everywhere thanks to on line shopping for the most part.
These guys at The Limited didn't adapt fast enough to changing conditions.
Sears will be next.

Please do tell us how the President should have stopped people from choosing to shop online.
