How about signs saying “ALL MINORS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PARENT OR GUARDIAN”?
The clock is discriminatory? The sun is discriminatory?
As spelled out in “It Takes A Village”,private property is racist.
“Its illegal to do that,
The Center is a private business place ergo, they can make up their own rules so STFU
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Cut the nuts off any DinDu in violation and it will stop.
I don’t go to any “mall” where there is any level of unsupervised black youth.
Things like these (brawls) are the reason that closed malls are dying and open air malls are thriving.
“’I think that they need to take a look at how to handle this in a different kind of way, other than just to say they are going to stand at the door and bar people. Its illegal to do that,’ said Tessa Hill-Aston, president of the NAACP Baltimore branch.”
One “different kind of way” would be to bar entry to the mall on a classification other than age. It would be even more effective than the age profiling, but I doubt that Tessa Hill-Aston would like it any better than the age barrier.
The curfew applies to **anyone** 17 years and younger.
A curfew is just a way of saying kids ought to be under parental supervision at a reasonable hour.
By calling the policy discriminatory, the NAACP is acknowledging that black kids are the problem.
By saying the mall should find some other way besides a curfew to deal with it, the NAACP is further acknowledging their refusal to take responsibility for black children.
Massa, pleeez take care o’ mah chirrens. Ah don’t wants to leave dis here plantation.
Dimwits.
It’s interesting that this mall is one of the more upscale malls in the Baltimore metro area, in one of the more affluent suburbs.
the mall manager should just say, “it’s our policy to encourage homework and study during weekdays and in that spirit, we have a curfew on school-aged children after X-o’clock.”
Why don’t they do like the California is doing in Colleges right now:
SEGREGATED MALLS, One for Whites and One for Blacks???
