Bomb Iran

Uuuhhhh I don’t know if I should be really freaked out right now or not. Here’s the setup…

An older gentleman gets on the train. Looks normal enough. Wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase. He has a fedora hat on and a big, white beard. Normal, right?

Well, he walks into the center of the train car and we start to pull out of the sation.

Very casually he says, “I have a question. Does anyone here think they can bomb Iran?”

Ummm what?

Everyone sort of looks around at eachother and ignores him. He didn’t just say what I though he said…did he?

Then I take another look at his briefcase. Large (like extra wide), matte back, and sorta beat up. I’m thinking, boy I hope he doesn’t think HE can bomb Iran via this train car.

A few stops go by.

“Don’t you think the US should bomb Iran? We should help,” he says.

Ugh.

He got off at the next stop.

Live from the subway, back to you in studio…

    Wow, that definitely would have had me scratching my head if I had heard him. I say if as I tend to get lost in the music from my mp3 player.

    Did you snap a picture of him? A camera seems like a really good idea in this situation ;)

    Scary. I would’ve stepped off the train at the first stop after he announced his question. It’s better to be safe than sorry.
