If he saw a dry run for a terrorist attack, then you can make sure that obama is not elected. A few hundred lives OR eternal socialism? The choice is clear, keep your mouth shut.

In all seriousness you should call walmart and let them know what you saw and make sure they hold on to the tapes. I'd imagine they record over them pretty frequently.

It quite possibly is racist.

I doubt the average american being able to tell apart a arab from a non-arab.

No it is a very brave thing to do. But there is not much you could do in that situation but save your family and yourself.

Please call walmart. But make sure you tell them these guys were carrying backpacks that were bought at Target. That should get them involved and interested. Can't have target backpacks in Walmart.

an alternative scenario was they were two mexicans (illegals of course) that were going in with backpacks to steal shite.

They chickened out.

I know, to put it mildly, that I have written a lot of anti-Muslim posts on here. But I think I have a right to be very concerned here. The combination of walking into Wal-Mart with backpacks on, only walking in 20 feet or so, scanning the store, not talking to each other, and then turning around in unison and walking out the store is just too suspicious. If that makes me "racist" then so be it. I am just trying to behave like a concerned American citizen should.

You could hit him in the head with a can of beanie weenies and knock him out before he hit the button.

no if he was nervous of a couple of arab guys in general, that could possibly be racist. But when these guys get out of a car, put on backpacks then walk into the store its whole other matter. Anyone with any kind of sense would see this as suspicious activity.

Whenever I got out of my car, I was only 5-10 feet away from these guys. they WERE arabs, not mexicans. Then in the store, i saw them in lighted conditions at about a distance of about 30-40 feet.

How about two terrorists plotting an attack doing something stupid like almost knocking his door off? Doesn't that seem suspicious? And if they wanted to see if they got a reaction, why not go when both doors are open and tons of people are there? I am just saying. Could be terrorist.

eh. Doesn't sound too suspicious to me.

I was not there, so I didn't see the way they look. But people think a former boss of mine is indian, and he is mexican. He could totally mistaken for an arab.

And its champaign, IL. Why would terrorist attack there?

eta: if he was really nervous calling 911 was the right thing to do.

so you feel confident that if they pull the video tapes they'll see it the way you do?
