Plus, mall security is there, primarily, to keep the place "shoppable", not merely "safe".
Who wants to deal with the chaos that would ensue if those idiot teen hanger-outer's weren't held in check by some sort of authority? (and no, in the real world, that can't be "us" and apparently will never be their "parents")
The not dangerous but annoying psycho bum who walks around panhandling? The wanna-be tough guys intimidating women and decent people but not actually breakling any law or crossing the line to where a response is justified? What about intimidating and apprehending shoplifters, is the 16 yr old girl at Sunglass Hut gonna do that?
If they weren't necessary, be sure that Mall's and other businesses wouldn't pay for them. Security has a job to do, and they put up with more crap on a daily basis without wigging-out and busting skulls than I could take in a week. Give 'em a break.
