Unfortunate yes, security guards in shopping malls used to carry machine guns lol when I was living there when I was younger, not anymore though I think.
Even as a kid getting armed cops in schools after 9/11, I have always really hated seeing guns in public. Especially when it’s a mall cop, you know? That sucks.
We had an armed cop in my 80s high school, long before Columbine made school shootings a sport. Also, this was a solidly middle-class school, not exactly rough.
