I bet there are a LOT of armed mofos at the malls on black Friday (depending on what part of the country you are in).

At an outdoor area such as waiting to get in a sporting event, a crowd could disperse much more quickly.

I really think that to kill as many people as possible, it's pretty hard to top a crowded gay bar at night.
unless of course they are all fenced in with only one exit available. like an outdoor concert venue.

mid-size busy mall, might have 3 guys with flashlights and radios, but not guns, mostly there to discourage shoplifting.

you won't see me at a 'pretend gun free zone' if i have any say over the matter. very dangerous places.

anyone can pull up the concealed carry permit laws for any state, and they will tell you quite clearly what all the 'gun free' places are.
Prescient post, as it turns out.

The scenario I worry about is a large airliner crashing into the seats in a sold out sports arena. Easily 20-30K dead. Another one is that same plane crashing into a loaded cruise ship.

Neither of these would be a lone wolf project, it would require a team and some financing, but they've proven that could be done.
