did I just hear a crime being hatched?

I just can't help being paranoid when I heard this group of men in a drinking spree at a store. It is almost 9 in the evening and I had to go to the nearest small store in order to buy something.While waiting for the storekeeper to give me my item, which took about 10 minutes because there was another buyer before me, I was listening to this weird conversation that this group of men were having. They were talk about how certain banks had been robbed, etc. They knew what tools were used and which banks had been robbed recently. Then they mentioned about banks that are easy to rob because of this and that reasons. The conversation really made me suspicious since these men are jobless and always drinking almost every night. Do you think those men are involved in those crimes?

It sounds like they were up to no good but they could have been joking around hoping someone would hear them and get scared. I would stay away from that store for awhile if that's the kind of customers that go there.

These men live near that store which is a bit far from my place but it is the only one that sold what I was looking for. They did scare me, you know.

Hi Hmm it seems these men don't have any work. Such people only talk about such things. "As they say empty brain is devils workshop" so these people only drink at night and make /talk all these nonsense's. We never know they may be involved.

I really think that one or two of them could be part of this because it seems like it's a kind of information coming from an insider.

Hi Cutie I hope that you are fine. I imagine how mad, anguish and uncomfortable have you felt. In my country thereĀ“s and emergency line where you can report this facts. Just in case. Don`t you have an emergency line to report them? They are drunk in a public place, this should be reported. Good luck! Blessings Cutie... dainy

I doubt they robbed the bank. Who is jobless has plenty of time to talk about nothing and everything and a robbery of a bank is Always interesting. Me and my duaghters talk about that too (or about the fact that nearly every day a shop or so is robbed in the area next to ours and how come these are Always foreigners, muslims, wearing a white cap and white shoes but the police never catch them they even are with 5 and leave with bikes! So I also say: grab your white cap and white shoes and let's go over there.) Just like those men we also know which shops are easily to rob because they have no alarm. How come? Because we are not blind and even the shopkeepers tell us it's all useless, no matter what prevention they take.

This was rather creepy Cutie. I would be reluctant to go to that store again because if those men were serious and speaking loudly then the owner would have heard quite a lot too and been a friend of theirs. Maybe he and his shop are better avoided. Of course they may have just been bored and making loud plans for your benefit. Maybe they do it to every lone customer who enters the store to shock them and to amuse themselves. Crooks or childish - who knows. Keep an eye on the local newspaper....

Hi Combe! Yes, it did sound creepy to be hearing such stories from men who look like they did those crimes.

Unless there is something to report to the police, you best to just keep quiet and not say anything. If you saw them, then they saw you. The police can't do anything unless there is really some evidence to a crime about to be committed. Unless you want to report these men to the police, I would just avoid that store if I were you.

That is why Zoe. I am not saying anything to any police--just here on Mylot.

Well, maybe not. Maybe they are just a bunch of drunkards who just doesn't have anything more to talk about!
