However, please see this article, for example, written by some attorney, that says pretty much what I've said.
Or maybe he, too, shouldn't do business in the US of A.
EDIT: Oops. This article is the same one I linked to yesterday from Nolo Press. I don't know if you're familiar with Nolo but they're a very reputable and successful US (yes US) company, publishing legal assistance for the masses. My questions still stand.

You just answered your own question with exactly what I write above:

On the other hand, when the police find a weapon on the front seat of a car, it is not considered a search under the Fourth Amendment because it is very unlikely that the person would think that the front seat of the car is a private place (a subjective expectation of privacy is unlikely), and even if the person did, society is not willing to extend the protections of privacy to that particular location (no objective expectation of privacy).

Also, if any mall employee touched me - they risk the threat of lawsuit so they never will.
