So as I ate in the mall today I thought about a "what if" situation. Here goes:
You're walking around the mall and suddenly you notice someone robbing one of the jewelry stores, armed. You draw your pistol, telling the would-be robber he needs to put his gun down NOW or you'll shoot. He begins to turn the gun on you, and you fire.
Ok, at this point someone is calling the police or you should be. A security guard or mall representative comes up to you, explains to you that you're not allowed to have a gun on mall property and asks you to leave the premises.
What do you do? Do you stay and wait for the cops, risking trespass or leave and call the police? Can you even be charged with trespass after this?
