I buy my gas at the new Walmart ever since it opened because Walmart gives 3% back on my Walmart card on gas. I've run into this before in Georgia, and went inside and told the attendant. If faced with this situation here I would of gone inside and advised the attendant and asked if he was going to call 911 or at least community watch since I live here? If he said, no, I'm calling the store manager, I would of waited for that, or if he said no, I'm not calling anyone, I would of called 911 or community watch depending on the attitude of the people involved. Community Watch are not the police, I don't want to endanger them if these people look like derelicts. Which from the response given the OP, I would of probably called 911 if the attendant had refused.
