I was ruminating on this rule and doing some research so I would have a solid answer to give mall customers when I find them without shoes or shirts. Some of what I read stated the law came into effect in the early 70's in any establishment with food for sale. Others said the law has never existed, it was a sham to keep hippies out of 'respectable' places in the 60's. Others state that the rule can be imposed on private property, but not in public ones (fine line there, being as how a lot of private property is open to the public). I'm leaning towards just telling people that not only is it a mall rule, it's a health and safety concern, since I can't find a specific health code regulation or law. Technically, we could kick someone out for not liking the color of their shirt! But since it seems EVERYONE we talk to is a lawyer
I wanted to be specific with them. Does anyone have specifics for me?
