Working for a law firm isn’t a protected right by law.
Why is this so hard for you chuckle heads.

Well, according to the "clip", the guy had shown up several days in a row, and was loudly preaching at shoppers, which caused numerous complaints from venders and shoppers, and they had to remove him, several days in a row. The guy keeps saying that he hasn't said anything "today". The security guard says, and I paraphrase, "Okay take off your shirt then, and we'll be fine.", but the guy wouldn't.

Neither is bothering people by preaching your religion to them on private property. Chuckle head.

Sigh....
You think these people deserve a clean slate because it's a new day. But, here they are again, at the scene of the crime, again. They're oh so innocent and the weary enforcers are oh so intolerant.
How does it go.....Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me..
Actually, the cult of Climate Change is a kind of religion, as it’s not really based on scientific evidence, and the Agenda 21 Climate Change cultists worship Gaia, the goddess of Mother Earth. Don’t believe me?

That "Stop Climate Change" shirt is quite offensive to me. Who are you, to tell me what I can and can't find offensive? Who made you the arbitrator of offense?
There is nothing in those Mall of America guidelines about protecting snowflakes like you from being offended. There is a rule against wearing religious slurs, which the shirt contains.
But he was not asked to leave for preaching. He wasn't preaching. He was asked to leave for wearing a t-shirt.
He was asked to leave several days in a row for preaching. He has a record with Mall Security.
On this day, people, no doubt employees and shop owners, saw him wearing the same shirt again, and complained to security that "preacher guy" is back. They didn't ask him to leave for preaching at this time. They asked him to take off his rule violating shirt, or they would ask him to leave again.
. Gaia worship is at the very heart of today's environmental policy. The Endangered Species Act, The United Nation's Biodiversity Treaty and the Presidents Council on Sustainable Development are all offspring of the Gaia hypothesis of saving "Mother Earth". This religious movement, with cult-like qualities, is being promoted by leading figures and organizations such as former Vice President Albert Gore, broadcaster Ted Turner, and the United Nations and it's various NGO's.

The Gaia hypothesis can be credited to James Lovelock. Lovelock worked for NASA during the 1960's as a consultant to the "life on Mars" Viking spacecraft project. Lovelock's theory claims that the earth's "biota", tightly coupled with its environment, act as a single, self regulating living system in such a way as to maintain the conditions that are suitable for life.
amp.theguardian.com...
Environmentalism has "become a religion" and does not pay enough attention to facts, according to James Lovelock
uring a 2002 United Nations meeting at which religious and spiritual leaders were called upon to move "from an exclusive preoccupation with Divine-human relations and human-human relations to renew human - Earth relations." "In other words, Earth worship should replace any belief in a divine being," explains Contender Ministries' Jennifer Rast. " . . . They envision for the religions of the world 'a major transformation from their theological and anthropological phase to their ecological and cosmological phase.' Following one of the major themes of the New Age Movement, humanity is spiritually evolving from being worshipers of God to being gods ourselves." A core belief among those who are pushing for a global earth-centered religion is that the earth is a self-regulating, self-sustaining entity which is in a state of continuous adjustment to the environment. Known as the Gaia hypothesis,

But it can be proverbially a final straw.
This didn't happen in a vacuum. The guy had to be removed before for causing a disturbance, several days in a row, and here he is back again wearing the same shirt as the other times. Each time security has to deal with this guy, they are going to become less and less charitable to his quirks, and more sensitive to the disruption and the cost his presence has come to represent.
I was resisting noting that situation seem oddly analogous to the woman in the UK who being a known religious activist, was arrested for silently standing and allegedly praying in a public place which suffered activism before.
The reasoning could have come from the same playbook "The guy had to be removed before for causing a disturbance, several days in a row, and here he is back again wearing the same shirt as the other times."
I notice the similarity extends to the fact that the "justice" being served relates to the antecedent alleged events... but delivered an a subsequent day with no complaints of disturbance being made ... just an observation that "that's the guy..." and in England "Yeah, that's her..."
I'm sure righteous virtue feels good to spread, but I see something very synchronous about the reporting here... as if it came from the same place.

Freedom doesn't mean coopting an unrelated designated business because you're too lazy to license and advertise your own designated business. The word for that is soliciting.

I'm not seeing that information in the clips provided, maybe you can include a time stamp with transcript of the dialogue in question. If accurate, then it makes sense that someone who is habitually intruding on the peaceful conduct of business would be questioned and then instructed to tone it down or depart the premises.
I stand by my previous comment that it's useful for idiots to wear highly visible hazard signs, including ̶𝐂̶𝐎̶𝐄̶𝐗̶𝐈̶𝐒̶𝐓̶ iconography.

Yeh some of the younger gens didn’t get to experience people wearing orange robes and giving away books if the Bhavagad Gita to people in the malls, parking lots and airports. Haha

I’m guessing some people didn’t like that the shirt replaced the coexist symbol with Jesus …
