Shopping Malls, Kiosks, Retail Center

How many times do you go to the mall with your wife or girlfriend just to walk around and browse and you pass by a kiosk and they start pitching you on their products.  I thought we lived in the United States, we are mature enough individuals to make our own decision and are old enough to ask questions.  This reminds me of the time I was in Jamaica [or most of the Caribbean Islands] where you are being approached from all sides, people trying to sell their products, which is expected and understood by most tourists, but, not in shopping malls here at home. 

If the Kiosk Employee has the right to just approach you and touch you and grab you and start harassing you, then why not the other retail stores, why not just have people wandering around the mall and handing out flyers, and bothering each and every customer walking in and out of the malls.  How do malls allow this and what precedent are they setting or allowing to be set.  I do not want to go to the mall and be harassed.  It's enough that I can't walk down the street to a restaurant without being approached by someone asking me for something [money] at least some of them have a great Pitch [stories]. 

A Kiosk employee is also know as a bunch of guys standing on the corner watching a beautiful girl walk by, and waiting for the girl to make eye contact with them, but she instead does one of the following;

1: She puts her head down and acts as though the guys don't exist
2: Turns and runs the other way.
3: Appears to be in a deep conversation with someone on her cell phone.
4: Last but by no means the Least, tells them off...

Maybe it's me?  It's you, as my family says, "you are the only one bothered by things", or my favorite "what's the big deal".  I always answer them the same way, 'If it bothers me, it's a big deal to me.'  Oh, well, I guess I am alone on this one.

Shopping Malls: A shopping mall or shopping centre is a building or set of buildings that contain a variety of retail stores, with walkways enabling visitors to easily walk from store to store.

Malls.
Shopping.
Retail.
Kiosk.
