Shoppers at the Mall of the Bluffs Tuesday ducked inside back rooms and U.S. Marshals scrambled to the roof with guns drawn after people called police to report a man with a gun inside the mall.
The man was carrying an umbrella. [More]I couldn't find a code of conduct for the mall online, possibly because, Iowa being a "may issue" state, the practice of carrying firearms is not prevalent enough for the mall to post prohibitions against...?

Our preoccupied-with-consumption/fatted calf culture no doubt heartens them tremendously.
