A Pickup Mall Game 0

Through a website, sacpickup.com, Barton charges men $225 for 15 hours of instruction in how to pick up women. After talking about the principles, he said, he takes two to six men into the field – the mall, coffee shops and bars – to put what they’ve learned into practice.

On April 11, Barton and his group were asked to leave Arden Fair when some women complained after being contacted by his students, said Steve Reed, chief of mall security.

“The line is crossed when there is a complaint,” Reed said.

This fellow went to the mall yesterday, not to pick up, but the get picked up by the cops as an act of civil disobedience.

Mall management played it smart; in the absence of any complaints, they ignored him.

Aside:

Words have meaning.

“Picking up” a woman is not the same as “meeting” one.

Don’t get me started on a skeevy business based on teaching manipulation.
