But to me, that is besides the point - I can not believe this story is real. Even if Pacquiao quoted Leviticus 20:13, that would be his freedom of speech and right as an American, and is not against the law. You can not ban somebody unless they break the law. I think Rick Caruso had a personal agenda and I do not think what he did was legal. A public mall can ban somebody for exercising their constitutional right of freedom of speech? How is that legal?
I don't think Pacquiao is an American, but in any event the mall is a private enterprise so could ban Pacquiao or all Catholics or all heterosexuals if they wanted to - they'd go out of business, but they could do it. (See Augusta National Golf Club as an example of a private enterprise that can "ban" a particular group of people).
