SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -

The FBI is aware of reports of [middle eastern] men [from Michigan] visiting Walmart stores in several cities in Missouri and purchasing or trying to purchase large quantities of cellular telephones. An FBI spokeswoman won't say exactly how much its agents are delving into the purchases. Some of the cities where the purchases and attempted purchases are reported by police and media are Macon, Columbia, Jefferson City, Lebanon, Ava, Jackson and Cape Girardeau.

After an earlier version of this story was posted on Thursday afternoon, the Marshfield police chief called to say that a man who gave a Michigan address made a similar purchase of a 19 prepaid cell phones in his city in October. The chief said that man gave a false tax exempt waiver form to the store and bought the phones without sales taxes.

News release from Ava Police Department:

“On 12-05-2015 at approximately 0623 in the morning, the Ava Police Department received a report of a Middle Eastern male subject who had purchased a large amount of cell phones from Wal-Mart and had left a cell phone in the restroom. Officers responded and secured the phone.

“While speaking with Wal-Mart employees the subject who left the phone returned to the store to get it. Officers spoke with the male subject who was of Middle Eastern decent and asked for identification which was provided. After speaking with the subject, officers did not have any legal reason to detain him, so they allowed him to leave.

My husband thinks they’ll strike Mall of America but I think they’ll pick smaller venues. Pick a few small malls around the country and see what kind of chaos that will cause.
I do think that if there is one more attack Trump might as well just take the oath of office right then and there.

the phone numbers must be associated in some way to the phone packaging box, they should be easy to intercept if the NSA wanted to

I hate to say you are right but you are probably right.

That may be true but apparently these purchases haven’t been commonplace there or there would be nothing to report.

I remember after 9/11 it was revealed that the muslims had planned an attack on some out of the way small town America town in the south.

They did it with the intent to stir up panic and make us feel that no one is safe for any reason, that they can and will reach any where.

For that reason, I suspect that we’ll see more smaller attacks rather than one massive one, ones that will be easier to write off as an individual working on his own. It wouldn’t cause the massive backlash a 9/11 type of event would.

So they may think......

They can attack and we’ll be warned to not blame them because that isn’t who we are.

That's a bunch of bull crap.

That's now who we are? SAYS WHO?

It may not be that's who the traitor in chief and his minions are, but it certainly is who the American people are to know a terrorist when they see one and call a spade a spade.

And yet, people will agree. It sounds mean and we're not like that.

Please.......

The media is already terrified of the “backlash” this possible slaughter may bring the Muslims.

Does everything need a sarc tag? There isn’t a person on FR who agrees with the Imam in Chief about the “that’s who we are” crap.

And then wait for the call from the Justice Department which has filled a racist lawsuit against you ... There will be an IRS auditor on your doorstep in the morning for your records and dropping the line “your bank account has been sized with your credit cards.”

Thanks for your help, citizen.

In all seriousness, I think you will find these are either drug dealers or people sending them overseas for their families to sell.

What we are starting to see is the “See something, say something” wave starting. This type of stuff has been going on for decades (in general terms) and no one cared.

Well, there is that.
I’m thinking more on the line of someone remote detonating their IED, and then what.
Defend, of course. But what other scenarios to act upon.
That’s what keeps running through my head.
I’ll think of something, eventually.
