In this Zero economy, who can afford to go to the Malls?

Btw, how many hundreds of thousands of immigrants have come in since these wars begone?

Crazy we never shut our doors to countries we are at war with.

There is really no easier place to attack. At our local mall you could drive a tractor tailer right to the center of the building if you wanted too.

The nearest “Islamic center” to any bombed US shopping center should be FLATTENED! Maybe then the Islamofacist BASTARDS would start to get the message!

FReepers have been writing about these kinds of attacks since 9-11. If it were at all feasible, the terrorists would have done it already.

The reason is really quite simple: if they start attacking malls, there will be pre-emptive lynchings of Muslims in any kind of public setting. Until now, they have actually been quite wise with their targets. Most Americans don’t go to airports much. Shopping centers are a whole different ball game.

The 2007 Salt Lake City Trolley Square Mall shooting was perpetrated by a Muslim jihadist, Sulejman Talovic.

The 2 malls by me are ghost malls. I don’t know how they stay open.

“the Islamofacist BASTARDS would start to get the message!”
There is no stopping the terrorists once they set their minds to do something. One, our government will NOT allow us to profile who is doing all the damage. Why do the TSA officials strip search little old ladies, babies and other unlikely people?? Instead they NEED to search every raghead walking into the airport praising Allah. I, to this day, have not seen an 80 year half cripple woman strap a bomb to herself, walk into a group of people and blow herself up.

Two, these “Islamofacist BASTARDS” as you put it, WANT to die for their religion. They WANT to go to see their 70+ virgins. They want to do this for Allah. I say if they want to die for Allah, let's do as Israel Airlines does, shoot the bastards before they board the planes. Have them interrogated before they have the opportunity to drop a jet out of the sky, killing all on board and countless on the ground. Let's let the security systems, CIA, FBI, etc.. do their jobs without tying their hands and/or threatening to prosecute them for doing it.

You can say that again - if they wanted a big body count, they’d hit the unemployment office.

Reason #29573829 to do all your shopping on line and never need to set foot in a mall again.

Now that’s FUNNY. Sad too.

We are a great Country, and we are letting subpar people do this to us.

Time for a big change on both sides of the aisle.

Time for people to serve prison time. Starting with all those who supported and engineered the bank bailouts.

Personally I think there are a combinations of reasons it hasn’t happened. I’m guessing its partly because most malls are mostly empty these days and it would enrage the public.

Just about the only things jihadists will be blowing up in our local mall are ghosts, elderly power walkers, and empty storefront windows.

They would do far better targeting Unemployment Offices...

I heard a long time ago that they were going to hit the movie theatres. Those are still pretty full, and many people crammed into a relatively small area. Plus the cover of darkness.

The one natural defense we have against a mall attack is that once a suicide bomber comes to this country and gets exposed to our society, they would become less likely to be willing to commit suicide. So the planners would have smuggle the actual bomber into the country and deploy them quickly, before they have a chance to get to Micky D’s and sample how infidels live.

I was a Mall Ninja for a while. Believe it or not, mall security is connected with Homeland Security, even if half the stores have gone out of business.

Remember the movie 'Observe and Report'? Well, those were our orders. Observe and report. Nothing more.

My mall was too small for Segways, so I didn't even get that.

My gut feeling is that it will be schools that will be hit. In several states all within the same time zone, all at once. Suicide attacks, meant to methodically kill as many children as possible until the terrorists are killed. It would fundamentally change our lives because who would trust the schools to protect our children?
