The local mall has an anti-youngster policy. From 4pm to close on Friday and Saturday, you cannot be in the mall if you’re under 18 unless you have a 21-year-old guardian (only four per guardian, too). Starting at 4pm, there are white-shirted fascists checking IDs at every entrance as well as throughout the mall (in case any 16-year-olds got there at 3:15).
I would be opposed to this policy even under normal circumstances, because it’s anti- tons of people (single-parent families, poor families, large families all would have trouble getting a guardian/an appropriate number of guardians there). But it’s even worse when 95% of the ID checks I see appear to fall into one of the following categories:
1) White guard hassling black customer.
2) Male guard hassling attractive female customer.
