This is a very poor analogy.  The real issue is property ownership and property 
rights.  Your attempts to say other wise are bullshit.  

You must prove that it is a correct thing morally to interfere with my property 
rights.  So far you have not done so.

The situation is not in any way like a corporate mall.  You have no choice 
where you are born.  You have rights and the right to property is one of them.  
Your attempts to say that you have a moral right to interfere in my property 
rights are false.  Your analogy is misleading.  Your claims that you can 
interfere with my rights because the constitution says you can only point up 
the fact that the constitution is wrong on this point as well.
