“I bet he’d shoot your ass if you pushed him.”
“Hell with that. He’s just a mall cop. They don’t got guns”
Ivan pointed at the guy. “What’s he got on his belt, then?”
“A taser, maybe. Or pepper spray. It’s not a goddamned gun.”
The guard stood like an old west cowboy, thumbs tucked into his waistband. He hadn’t caught them doing anything this time, but he clearly remembered them from earlier in the summer. He had chased them and called them punks.
“I bet his gay hair is a wig.”
“Ten bucks says you can’t snatch it, dude.”
I guess they will soon find out …if it’s a gun or taser 🙂
Nice one.
AnElephant enjoys this.
Punks. They are well written punks, but I still don’t like them. 😉
I agree with Lynda above. Your story is very well written! Good job! Nan
Bang!

Poor mall cops…they never get any respect. 😉
I actually hope they get tazered..
I hope that taser has a powerful punch – I don’t like punks either! Well written!
An amusing take. I had to remind myself that punk means something different in the US, as across the pond, it is mainly used when referring to the subculture
nasty kids
Two viewpoints here – I get the feeling there’s going to be a blow-up of some kind. I wonder who’ll come out on top. Well built characters – the dialogue is great.
It’s war! perhaps the cop does have a gun and is also extreeeeemly sensitive about his rug.
I don’t like those chaps – good writing to make me feel that way. I hope they got tasered!
Unlike the rest, I favor the kids. Mall cops should be screwed with, just for choosing that job.
