I don’t make the news I just report it

Nope, you aren't reporting it, you're telling a lie.
THere's essentially a limited curfew for kids on friday and saturday nights at a boogie mall in NJ. Mentioning 2 other ones with similar restrictions. And there are let me check 28 malls in NJ. So less than 11% of NJ malls have restrictions on kids going to a mall without adults 2 nights a week is equal to
"You can’t go to a NJ mall without a chaperone"
Which again, is a lie. There's a nugget of truth there, but it's the tiniest nugget of truth ina much bigger story.

A in that context means a lot of things.
I can't live near a school because of a court order could mean I can't live near a certain school because of a restraining order from my ex who's a principle there, or I can't live near any school because I'm a sexual predator. A and any often are interchangable when used in that style of writing.
I can't go to a strip club because I have no money, doesn't mean there's a different strip club I can go to that lets me tip in smiles.
And yes it is a patent lie. Again more accurate would be children cannot go to certain malls because of a curfew on certain days. That's no remotely the same statement as
"You can’t go to a NJ mall without a chaperone"
So first off the you aspect, I would hedge my bets that every person here is 30+. Which means any one of us in fact could go to any mall in NJ as long as they're in normal operating hours.
So part one of your lie.
Again there's the a/any issue. I talked about that above.
Here I'll reword your statement to make it factual.
A mall in Paramus NJ won't allow people under 18 in after 5PM without a Chaperone on Friday and Saturday nights for the foreseeable future.
Don't even need that last bit on the end.
One of these is sensationalist, one is not.
For example I could say
You can't go to a Florida Theme Park without a chaperone
Like you said, but what I would be talking about is when Universal put a curfew on kids on weekends for the same reason.

Again, lies are lies. I know you can't tell the truth because you're indoctrinated by conservative twitter to read headlines.
YOu didn't even read the article you linked which mentioned the other malls in it. Which means again, you're not reading things, you're just being the baby bird to the momma bird that is ****ty conservative twitter and eating their puke.

No I won't. I'm a 35 year old. I can go to that mall whenever i want and the headline to the article says
"Teens must be accompanied by a chaperone on weekends at this N.J. mall"
Not as close to what you said as you seem to think.
And the diatribe was to point out clearly how wrong you were including pointing out you saying you "don't make the news just report it" link to the article and when I mention something from the article you linked, you say you had no idea about said information. Which means you didn't read the article. So yeah the extra stuff was me gilding the lily. I didn't have to but sometimes it's fun to twist the knife. It was very fun to point out a place in Florida doing the same thing last year as a counterpoint to you supposedly "owning" me.

When I come across the chaos and ****hole status of Jacksonville, I will post it
Do you believe places like Portland, SF, and Chicago are currently healthy?

Going by one index of health (life expectancy) they compare favorably with most of ruby red America. Feel free to add another index of "health" to make your point.
