| WARNING!! MN Residents This has nothing to do with our furbutts, sorry, but I felt it important to spread the word. I hope I don't get in trouble for this . . . I was informed late this evening by a dear friends son that is in the ARMY, he has been placed on stand by due to intelligence received that there is a gang initiation that involves going into a Wal-Mart and killing a woman. There is also discussion about putting the National Guard in Wal-Mart locations in attempt to deter these actions. May God protect us all!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | This story was on our local news and apparently is a hoax. Also found this on Snopes. snopes.com: Gang Targets Women at Wal-Mart

| I wonder why if this is such a hoax, they would be putting people on stand-by?? I just pray that it is nothing to worry about. I will still be keeping my eyes open though.

| I am taking the threat very seriously. There won't be any late night Wally-World runs for me for quite some time. |

| It is my understanding that the GBI and FBI are also taking the threat seriously in my community as well as in a neighboring county. My son has friends within the local police department and he was concerned enough to call me and warn me not to go to Wal-Mart alone. My son isn't one to over-react, so I'll just lay low for the time being and try to not do any shopping. |
