“Gonna start at the malls too.”
And remember the states where the mall managements post signs banning a CCW from carrying in the mall. I will not patronize those malls.
Malls are from a legal standpoint completely different than “downtown”. However comma there is no smoking allowed, as it is a “public place”. I have always taken that to mean that a concealed weapon held by an otherwise law-abiding citizen is perfectly fine. It’s a public place, after all.
