Yes, you're right, there is no law against being in a store, but if you've been to that store, I'm sure you'd agree that it is not designed to withstand a mob of 150-200 unruly people. Although no law exists to "run people off", with the potential for something bad to happen (which did) things should have been at least closely monitored. When's the last time you've seen a mob that large converge on a convenient store in Columbus County? My advice would be that if you think it's no big deal, go get right in the middle of it and see for yourself. I'm sure you'd be completely safe around such a group of saints. Good luck and God bless.
