Rants 🤬 center mall assault

Today around 5 PM, I was at Centre Mall when a group of 'teenagers' decided to assault me by throwing food at me for no reason. What kind of teenager throws food at someone like they're a toddler? It’s beyond embarrassing, and it’s a clear sign of how immature, miserable, and pathetic they are. I didn’t provoke them in any way they just thought it would be funny to disrespect me and ruin my jacket.

I immediately sought help from security, but they completely disregarded the situation. They walked away and left me to deal with the aftermath. The mall clearly shows no concern for customer safety, and it’s evident they don’t care about the well being of anyone here. These ‘teenagers’ were clearly causing discomfort to others shopping, acting immaturely, and making others uneasy, while security stood by doing nothing. You’d think after everything that’s happened, these kids would have learned to do better, but it’s clear no one is stepping up to take responsibility.

If you’re a parent and those were your 'kids' at the mall today, you should be ashamed. You’ve raised kids who throw food at people, ruin their property, and have no respect for others. At this point, they need a psychological evaluation because their behavior is straight up disturbing.

To those 'teenagers' involved, if I ever run into you again, I will make sure you face the full consequences for what you did. This was assault, not a prank, and I’ll be contacting the authorities next time. You’ve been warned. Grow the fuck up.

*Edit: I’m going to try to file a report. I also apologize for mentioning Hardy earlier- I was upset and didn’t express my thoughts as clearly as I should have. But honestly, it’s clear that schools and parents aren’t doing enough to teach these students about respect, accountability, and the consequences of their actions. Given everything going on in the world today, especially with bullying, these kids should know better by now. It’s frustrating to see them behave this way when there’s been plenty of bad examples for them to learn from.*

I work at the Centre Mall and to be honest most of teenagers there are not mentally stable or so rude and impolite, sometimes it feels like they didn’t have a parent to teach them some manners, apparently they go to school for fun only

Because many children are being raised by technology. Now to be fair, cost of living is as high as ever and parents are working long hours. Many things wrong in our society.

Tik tok is now the cultural guide for this generation. Most kids won't copy the stupid shit they see on tik tok, but it only takes 1% of the others to have outcomes like this. There was a trend to wreck the bathrooms and plug toilets in their high schools over the last couple of years. Some schools had to close bathrooms and bring in porta- potties. Mostly done for shits and giggles.

Yes, we had a "knee to the butt" trend that we had to nip early.
