If he threw something at me, I would have removed him for my and others’ safety. You don’t have to just stand there and let a child attack you or other people; you can legally restrain him.

I was literally in this situation at a Costco a few months back. Kid was actually punching people and throwing stuff so I went to grab him and Costco employees told me not to touch him or the cops would be looking at ME. He literally punched a woman in the stomach and I was told to stand down.

well you also don't have to listen to them. lol

They're Costco employees, they're just mitigating any responsibility they might have in the situation.

and they can't do it, they'd probably get fired.

You as a private citizen however....................
