I don’t know what the courts would do.. but it seems the security knew this guy and his MO and on this day just decided to confront him before he started doing anything, at least that is what I can gather from what has been reported.
I just not falling for the knee jerk on this, that this was just some random guy who just happened to walk into the mall with a Jesus Saves T-Shirt on and the Jack Booted thugs jumped on him for that.
That doesn’t seem the case here. I doubt the mall or its security would win the case if it went to court, but context matters.... and this certainly seems to be a context of a known rule violator showing up, and being confronted. Whether they handled it well or not, is another story, but this report certainly does not come across as ooooo this mall is just out to persecute and discriminate against anyone who displays christian messages on their clothing.

That is exactly how it comes across if ‘security’ knew this guy and on this day decided to confront him.
