Like the retired Minn. officer, I'm also a
former LE. Something that I learned in the 11 years on the force is that
YOU CAN NEVER EVER TAKE A STORY SERIOUS UNTIL YOU'VE HEARD BOTH SIDES.
Besides, you have to admit....Something of this magnitude would definitely be on the national news and probably highly investigated (more than I did...LOL). And you got to ask yourself, "Why is a retired Minn. cop becoming victimized in a Texas Walmart? And he never explains what he's doing in Texas.
Personally, I'm not going to blast on BLAST (no pun intended) for posting this without checking it out because he probably found it on another site and took it to be a creditable allegation. In defense of BLAST, it's all good, bro. My nephew's girlfriend does it ALL THE TIME. She finds a hot item that requires everyone's alert and attention, post it on Facebook, get cheered for it by many, and then her boyfriend's uncle (that's me, btw) would post the snope.com page that kills it.
