Early Saturday morning two “foreign speaking” men set off alarms after they entered the local Walmart store in Lebanon, Missouri and purchased 60 cellphones. The purchase was made around 4 AM in the morning. Police were called but released the men saying they didn’t have a legal reason to detain them.

The Macon County Sheriff’s office is investigating a second suspicious purchase of dozens of cellphones at the Columbia Walmart on Conley Road.

A third suspicious purchase was made at a Walmart in Macon, Missouri.

>>Then we need a new law that includes “suspicion” so that cops can do logical things.

I hope that’s a joke.

They weren’t buried. They were found by a deer hunter laying alongside a path a few hundred feet from the highway. An there wasn’t a large amount. When the bomb disposal team from Leonard Wood detonated them in place they left a crater a foot or two wide and a few inches deep.

Walmart Superstores pretty much nation-wide are open 24 hours now. I often park my class c motorhome along side truckers resting in those parking lots all night. Then I pick up my food for the day and other supplies early in the morning.

Often only one checkout counter open, though, and sometimes there are customers enough to need several counters open, even at 3 or 4 0'clock in the morning.

Walmart is open at 4AM???

Yes, some of them are open.

Muslims buying 60 cell phones would/should cause the same stir at 4am as if you or I were buying;

1. Rubber gloves

2. 3 rolls of Duct Tape

3. 2 gallons of Bleach

4. A large butchers knife

5. Heavy duty Trash bags

6. Lighter Fluid

I’m open to suggestions. That was off the cuff.

We need a good reason to hold terror suspects while an investigation of their behavior take place.

Bulk buys of burner cell phones by middle eastern men? Gawd. There has to be some charge, or we need to create one.

You mean enough to blow off a man's legs after triggered from a burner cell phone?

Well it does not take a genius to figure out they are going to make up a bunch of IED’s and then stick them in the mall or somewhere and walk outside and blow it up real good.

>>>>>>a huge cache of “extremely volatile” explosives, which police described to be of a style “that could not be purchased for recreational use.”<<<<<<

I’m thinking that Missouri may not be the place for a recreational vacation...

White Supremacist Preppers most likely.
Stocking up on cell phones and explosives to defend their defensive fortress.

We need to suspend habeus corpus, the entire Bill of Rights and confiscate anything more deadly than a BB gun!
It has to be done NOW!

Dirty little White Supremacist Preppers and their White Privilege.

Even though I am being sarcastic, you know this is going through some fruitcake liberals mind.

I’m guessing sometime around Christmas or Easter. Possibly in 2016/2017 rather than sooner if they are smart and don’t want to ruin Hillary’s chances in the general election.

How come there's no 'probable cause' when Muslims buy large quantities of cell phones yet police and SWAT snipers are ready to kill when bikers get together at the local eatery (Twin Peaks)?

We need to perceive Mosques the same way we perceive large groups of bikers! Breeding grounds for hate and criminality, except bikers tend not to target innocent civilians!

The phones are usually hanging on a rack and sometimes you need a key so you just have to call a manager.

I wanted to replace a phone with one a tad bit “smarter” and found one on sale, reduced from $59.82 to $9.82. That’s not a typo. I even bought a second one as backup, figuring it was cheap insurance in case it breaks, gets damaged, stolen, etc. There were no more than 3-5 on the rack, though.

However, 60 is rather odd. It’s possible they intend to make money on them. It’s also possible they can be used for “other” purposes. I would be interested if the men were members of a mosque somewhere.
