A compound sentence needs at least two independent clauses and can be combined by conjunctions such as and, or, but, for, yet, nor and so. The independent clauses can also be combined by a semicolon ;
(A)
If we look at A, we can see A does not have two independent clauses. There is a depend and an independent clause and that is why we have a comma after go in A.
(B)
What I said about A is the same for B
(C)
Ah! good old C. C has two independent clauses and has the conjunction and after mall and before John. This is very important because this is where one independent clause stops and another independent clause starts. C has everything that makes up a compound sentence so the answer is C.
(D)
If we look at D, we can see D is just a single independent clause, which is asking a question.

The majority of the Court, according to Justice William Brennan, agreed with Johnson and held that flag burning constitutes a form of "symbolic speech" that is protected by the First Amendment. The majority noted that freedom of speech protects actions that society may find very offensive, but society's outrage alone is not justification for suppressing free speech.
In particular, the majority noted that the Texas law discriminated upon viewpoint, i.e., although the law punished actions, such as flag burning, that might arouse anger in others, it specifically exempted from prosecution actions that were respectful of venerated objects, e.g., burning and burying a worn-out flag. The majority said that the government could not discriminate in this manner based solely upon viewpoint.
