Simon should just settle and move on.
It is sad that this even occurred, that people were killed, and others injured. However, until this country changes its constitution to include “thought police” as legal agents, this lawsuit is moot.
Since when did ““It was foreseeable to Simon and Allied on July 17, 2022, that this particular perpetrator—given his age, appearance, behavior, and because of the unique backpack he was carrying—all fit the well-recognized profile of a potential mass shooter.”” give anyone permission to stop and search a person?
Just trying to foment greater public acceptance for red flag laws, and, if left unopposed, for “Minority Report” style “pre-crime” charges.
Very sorry for all the victims of this disturbed individual. However, how is it reasonable that a mall can have an armed security person at any possible venue on their property? Seems to me that the legal case for this will be very difficult to prove to any reasonable jury. More so, anyone in that mall the evening of this incident should thank their guardian angel that there was an armed citizen that took the shooter down. If not, there could have been dozens more impacted.
Feel really bad for the victims, but this seems fanciful to suggest Simon was negligent here, because of other shootings in other parts of the country. If one accepts that premise, wouldnt the plaintiffs themselves be equally liable for dimissing the risk? And what was the mall security supposed to do after profiling and then presumably confronting the armed attacker? They don’t have the powers of police to arrest, get search warrant, etc….
As an aside, it is interesting this was filed in Marion County, not Johnson County, where the mall actually is. Maybe attempting to leverage a potentially more sympathetic jury?
Given the pro 2A gun rights swing by the supreme court ,and the GOP, the only recourse for Americans is to make somebody else pay for the real cost of so many easily available guns. When a few of these lawsuits are successful, expect going to mall will soon be like going to the airport, because that will be the price to pay for “gun rights”.
