[Air-L] public private

[Hugemusic]

Maybe, but if you misbehave in that "private" space, the cops will arrest
you for a public misdemeanor ...

and this would absolutely wrong and total nonsense, at least in America. In
American, EVERY mall is private property and is specifically posted as such.
No one may do research within them without the express written consent of
the mall owners. You'll find that posted on the outside doors of virtually
every mall you enter.  
If it isn't posted on the doors, it's up on a wall someplace. If you don't
believe me, just call your local marketing firm and ask them about the
contracts and permissions they have to sign with the mall in order to do
research within.
