i just got off the phone with Tom, the manager today, and got the same impression. he insisted that he was unclear on the law, and he called the police only to find out what was legal, not to have her arrested or escorted off the property. he also contacted corporate HQ, and confirmed what all of us know already. he seemed pretty amicable, though he was upset that she took what he said out of context. he also said he never told her she couldn't shop there, he just was concerned because customers were complaining. i talked to him for about 15 minutes; my impressions were that he wasn't harrassing her, he was just being a store manager.
