Likely to provoke a disturbance?

Oooohhhh, are they gonna get letters...........and I'll be sending copies of any correspondence to this paper for the opinion page.

I mean, every time I'm there I see shirts telling me I'm gonna burn in hell --in those exact words--but I guess that's not "offensive."

The problem is mall officials won't clarify what is and isn't acceptable and the code itself, in the example above, is vague. 

Likely to provoke a disturbance?

Battlefield Mall security officer asks girl to remove this bandanna, raising questions about rules for visitors.

We suggest mall officials consider using some common sense also.

Lydia Smith and her mom were eating lunch at the mall Saturday while shopping for new church clothes when Lydia saw a mall security officer ask a nearby teenager to remove a bandanna.

Lydia was wearing a bandanna, too, folded in a triangle and tied under her hair.


 
"(The officer) asked me to take it off and said there's this new rule we have or something like that," the 10-year-old said.
