Walmart got it's own section in the town's police report where I used to live, and it's own color on the crime map. Car accidents, theft, robbery, battery ,domestic, public drunkenness, loitering, drug possession; the big box store is just a magnet.Originally Posted by QKShooter
Only thing I would have added was a suspicious persons report and vehicle description, and plate if possible. You were the mark that got away, the next guy might not be as savvy.

One goes against their instincts at their peril.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".

I agree a call to the non-emergency number may have been in order, for a LE drive by.

My instincts have saved my butt a couple of times.
If they needed help they could have asked Walmart security to call AAA, tow, 911 or whom-ever.
I hate to ignore people who need help, but when something doesn't seem right, it probably isn't.

Good instincts can save you.You mentioned they were not 'clean cut',remember,clean cut people can kill you just as easy.
Pain is the best teacher,but nobody wants to go to his class.
When the past smothers the present, there is only desperation. When the future absorbs the present, life stands still. In either case a decision must be made because you only live now and you are only what you are now.

Your spidey senses are there for a reason. You followed them and I agree with you. You did the right thing. Something seemed rotten in Denmark and I'm glad you didn't have to find out exactly what.
IMO, you did the right thing. As for the middle finger; ignore the moron and don't even acknowledge the gesture. If the clown did it after you passed by and wasn't sure if you saw it, provided you didn't flip him off back, there's a good chance he totally felt ignored by you, and that eats at those kinds of folks worse than anything.

Most exelent point. One I need to be reminded of from time to time.
Crime in Walmart parking lots?Say it aint so... do you actually mean that a car with a flashing yellow light driving around wont deter criminals?

Not to hijack the thread but I know what your saying. When I worked on my Uncles farm in SE Kansas as a kid I learned that a Kansas rain is defined as 6 visible wet spots on a brick
I carry to protect myself and my loved ones from the BG's. Not to solve societies problems. That said: if more carried the deterrent would only have a positive overall effect on those problems.
