You didn't tell him about the CHL badge, tiara, and sash.

No need for the badge, tiara, or sash. Just wear this:

You could design jackets with Velcro flip-down flaps that say "CHL" (in stead of "Police") :thumbs2:

Don't go to mall often, but last 2 times I was a Longview Mall I did not see it posted (and the last time I went through the front door).

I wonder when they took it down? I haven't been in there in a couple of years, and since my grandson is no longer working there I have no reason, or desire to return.

Two (serious) questions:

1. Is wearing this legal?

2. Is wearing this smart?

OK guys. When I wrote this it was a little "tongue in cheek", but now I hear ISIS has threatened a Mall of America attack. I think I'll start carrying the AR15 in the ScottDLS car when I go to Grapevine Mills.

I think I'll avoid Grapevine Mills.

Me too. The closest I get to that place is Bass Pro Shops and I haven't been there in a few years.

I haven't been to bass pro in awhile either. Nowadays just about anything I want I can get online. No real reason to go to malls or big sporting goods stores.

Other than behavior, their isn't an effective way. However, I'll borrow a line from Captain America: Winter Soldier.
Sam Wilson: Hey, Cap, how do we know the good guys from the bad guys?

Steve Rogers: If they're shooting at you, they're bad.

If there's a significant number of folks who NOW won't shop in malls or go where other large crowds gather, like Walmart or restaurants, terrorists win by economic devastation.

Perhaps, THAT'S what they really hope to accomplish.

Could terrorists shoot up a mall, sure, but I'm not hiding because they threatened too. The heck with that

After 911, our economy was left in tatters...many people wouldn't fly and were even afraid to open their mail for fear of anthrax.

Me, I'm gonna go where I please not tremble in my boots because of what MIGHT happen.

I guess I should qualify my statements. For me shopping online instead of visiting malls has little to do with fear of terrorists and a lot to do with avoiding stupid people and overpriced merchandise. Malls were on life support long before anyone became concerned about them being a target. The only thing that a terrorist attack might do is pull the plug.

jmra,

My post was a general rant, not targeting you at all.

If you thought so, my apologies.
