I explained that we were there to oppose the peace-NAZIS down at 41st street.

He looked at me and said, "Wait until Monday, there will be a switch in attitudes, there will be a "pole shift"..people will change their minds about that"

I didn't know what to think, he said it as if it was privelidged information of some sort that he was revealing to me, as if he knew there was some sort of incident going to happen on Monday, October 29.

I went to the cops there and told them what he said, and they dismissed it as a crank.

He did not look like some loser, not really, he was clean, adequately dressed, just a normal person.

5'10, Green German Army-type jacket, Jeans, about 45 to 50 years old, greying hair, almost shoulder length, last seen heading north on Broadway towards Times Square.

Was that before or after he washed your windshield?

about 45 to 50 years old

That would make him 16 to 21 years old in 1972. The year he cooked his brain on blotter acid.

Race, I'll risk the flames, but have your thought of calling the FBI tip line? Did you read the Peggy Noonan article posted here on FR a couple of days ago? You were right to go to a police officer. But, if you are really spooked, trust your judgment. Call the Fed tip line...

After Pearl Harbor there was a report to the FBI that a dog was at the beach barking in code. No joke.

Let's examine what he was really saying to you. He was saying that after Monday people won't be peace loving anymore? People will demand war? What do you think it means? I don't take anything as a joke anymore, but we really are kind of helpless, aren't we?

Freepers are famous for taking pictures at these events. Any crowd shots featuring this guy? I agree with PA Mom - phone the FBI tip line. Think how terrible you would feel if ten days from now this guy's picture shows up on TV as the perp of some big new terrorist attack.

Seriously...

Would anybody with enough resorces or connections to pull-off any type of terrorist attack be running around telling strangers about it?

But the bottom line is, if you're concerned enough about it, call the FBI.

Where I come from (and, consequently, NEVER get to do live FReeps, because I live in Reality Land aka West Texas), shoulder length hair is NOT normal.

You know, if this bothers you this much you should call the FBI. You're going to be the butt of a few jokes on this thread, I'm sure, and I guess I will be too but I say better safe than sorry. I've read your posts here on FR for some time and think that you're generally a serious and level headed person and if this incident feels weird enough that you're willing to start this thread and take the heat that you'll be taking I say call the FBI.

I wonder if he could be some kind of agent monitoring the peace groups. It's interesting he asked you what you were doing there.

I can't think of a better way to for the police to respond right now that to just totally blow off a possible threat.

Is it possible the police you spoke with, knew this guy as a neighborhood nutcase? That they were dismissing it as a crank, based on prior experience with this guy?

I find all the other possibilities very unsettling.

John Lennon is dead.

Perhaps, his ghost.

If you're truly concerned about this, you literally have only TWO options...

Contact the FBI.

Or...

Contact a shrink.

No offense intended.
