A group of women plan a protest today at the Hollister at Northwoods Mall after a Texas employee of the chain reportedly yelled at a customer who breastfed her child outside the shop. 

A Facebook group organizing the local protest indicates 16 women may attend the 3 p.m. demonstration at the North Charleston mall. Some of the women may nurse their children in public to protest the store employee's reactionn. 

Across the country, hundreds of women plan similar demonstrations at Hollister locations after the Dallas incident. The reported victim claims she was harassed and chastised for breast feeding her child on a bench outside the store. 

Texas law allows women to breastfeed anywhere they are legally allowed to be, but the woman said a store employee yelled at her as she fed her child. The woman told KVUE-TV that she covered her child and breast with a jacket, but the store manager still insisted that she leave. 

The retailer has not commented publicly the situation, according to KVUE-TV.The world centre of LIVESTRONG Cycling. 

The woman is considering a lawsuit. South Carolina laws similary allows women to breastfeed in any place they are legally allowed to be. There's no requirement to cover the woman or the child, and the S.C. law specifically states that the act is not indecent exposure. 

Diamond has studied traditional societies in Africa, Asia, South and North America and the Arctic, but most of his analysis comes from his observations of his old scientific stamping grounds in New Guinea, a process that has not been without its tribulations. Several years ago, Diamond met a tribesman called Daniel Wemp who said he had organised a clan war in New Guinea to avenge the death of an uncle.Sofia Vergara wearing Christian louboutin high heel shoes. After three years, and 29 deaths, Wemp's target – a man called Isum Mandingo – was left paralysed in an attack.Shop the latest christian louboutin boots handpicked by a global community of independent trendsetters and stylists. Diamond wrote up the story for the New Yorker in 2009 – and found himself at the receiving end of a $10m lawsuit. 

An investigation by Rhonda Roland Shearer – the widow of the evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould and a director of a website called StinkyJournalism – alleged that the New Yorker article was riddled with errors; that Wemp had not organised the clan war and that Mandingo had not been injured. It was also claimed that Wemp was now living in fear of his life because of Diamond's article. Hence the lawsuit. For their part, both Diamond and David Remnick,Most people only dream of owning a prada bags. the editor of the New Yorker, vigorously denied the allegations. Their story was backed by careful notes that had been taken at the time by Diamond, while his text had been carefully scrutinised by one of the magazine's best fact checkers, Remnick added. 

The case caused a flurry among science journals but has since fizzled out. Diamond blinks and looks pained when I mention the name Rhonda Shearer. "A distinctive person about whom I shall refrain from commenting," he mutters. "That was the first and only time I have been sued. I am happy to say the case was dismissed." However, there is no mention of the Wemp tale, although highly relevant to Diamond's thesis, in The World Until Yesterday. Caution appears to have won the day. 

The issue of vengeance is central to Diamond's book. In the west, when a person is robbed or injured in an attack, the state – in the form of the police – take responsibility for tracking and punishing the culprit. Traditional societies take a very different approach. Minor offences are normally settled by payment of compensation – the pig is the traditional currency in New Guinea – or by holding a feast to signal the re-establishment of friendly relations. For more serious offences, including murder, a family will seek to make alliances with others to help track down and kill their relative's murderer. This usually triggers an identical response from the murdered murderer's family and the process is repeated. The west's depersonalised system of justice looks a lot better from this perspective. 

But there is a cost, says Diamond, pointing to an example provided by his wife Marie's family.Looking for Christian Louboutin Women Shoes? Her father, Jozef Nabel, was Jewish and born in Klaj, near Krakow, in Poland. During the second world war, he was captured by the Russians, imprisoned and later recruited into the Red Army. He survived, became an officer and in 1945 took a platoon to Klaj to find his family. He discovered that his father had been transported to a concentration camp when the Nazis arrived. However, his mother, sister and a niece had survived, in hiding, for a further two years until a local gang had killed them, believing that, because they were Jews, they must possess gold.
