Police Are Called After Two “Foreign Speaking” Men Buy Large Quantity Of Cell Phones From Walmart At 4 AM

Fortunately, someone at Walmart wasn’t worried about being accused of “profiling” and called the police. Americans need to be vigilant, and to never be afraid of making a mistake about someone or something you feel isn’t quite right. Do not allow the Left to bully you into submission. This is our country, and our national security is at risk…If you see something…SAY SOMETHING! 

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 last Saturday morning. Police were called but released the men saying they didn’t have a legal reason to detain them.
KY3 reported:

A large number of cellphones bought in the early morning hours set off concern in Lebanon.

Police say just before 4am Saturday morning, two men purchased about 60 phones from the Walmart store.

Police were called, but after talking with them police say they didn’t have a legal reason to detain them.

But they did call the FBI.

“I’m not going to say just because they’re a different religion or because they’re Muslim. But these people were, they were foreign-speaking. You need to take notice, you need to let us know about it because it doesn’t hurt to check on it. You’re not being racist or anything like that. You’re just protecting yourself,” said Laclede County Sheriff Wayne Merritt.

After the San Bernardino shooting, several media outlets reported some neighbors noticed suspicious activity at the home of shooters Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik.

No reports were made, however, out of fear of being accused of racial profiling.

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