Mall Reverses Decision to Ban Anti-Police Brutality T-Shirts
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CHERRY HILL, N.J. — Jul 14, 2016, 3:06 PM ET
A New Jersey mall that asked a kiosk operator to stop selling anti-police brutality T-shirts that read "This Has to Stop!" is now inviting the vendor to sell the shirts.
The Cherry Hill Mall on Tuesday asked the kiosk to stop selling the $20 shirts because they were considered offensive. The shirts feature two stick figures resembling police officers beating a third figure on the ground.
The mall announced Wednesday it had reversed its "hasty" decision.
