“Malls ain’t the happening place they were in the 80’s. Particularly not in the Obama Economy. Young people now hang-out online and not in the Food Court.”
You’re right; in my area they are filled with foreigners (not the tourist types, but the illegal-working-for-cash types). I watched one working-for-cash-with-a-student-visa type try on sneakers without socks (he was wearing sandals); just disgusting...
Gangs like to also hang out in malls.
