What does it matter if it is private or public property, being able to pray is the right of Every American Citizen.

I don’t like the NO CCW rules, so I avoid the malls. Our nearest is high crime. Not to mention it caters to the youth, not to seniors. It is not wheel chair friendly either.

No, it's not your right to do whatever you want on or inside someone else's property.

RE “What does it matter if it is private or public property, being able to pray is the right of Every American Citizen.”

WTF??

You have zero legal right to pray on MY property.

We have zero legal right to pray in our written posts on FR.

Its called private property, this isn't a communist 'gov owns all property yet ' dictatorship quite yet.

“...What does it matter if it is private or public property, being able to pray is the right of Every American Citizen...”

Sure it is their right... right up until it infringes on some else’s right - like private property rights.

Think of it this way. You own a small business; say, a shoe store. A group of Moslems walk in and decide to hold a head-bump session with your floor. Sure, they have a RIGHT to pray - just NOT on YOUR property. They can go somewhere else and do it. And You have the absolute right to tell them to GTFO. The mall is no different. Someone owns it, and they have a right to regulate who and what goes on within it.

Same with CCW. And yes, I DO carry. I won’t shop in places that don’t allow me to defend myself - BUT - if I do decide to go in, that’s on me. And they’d never know it anyway, unless there was a life-or-death incident, and in that case, I’d have my day in court - ALIVE.

This is the system we have; it works. I don’t care whether they’re Christians, Jews, Muzzies, or Worshippers of the Universal Cosmic Bellybutton Lint. When you’re on private property you are there at the discretion of the owner.

Public property is another matter entirely. Your taxes pay for whatever piece of ground you are standing on, or driving on at any given moment.
