It now appears that not all Muslim teenagers with backpacks want to blow up your local movie theater.



The first day of 2016 ended on a sour note for a group of teenagers. That night the adolescent scamps decided to catch a movie at the Mall of America.



After heading into the theater, the backpack-toting teens took their seats for a carefree cinematic experience. At some point, the loquacious young men decided to move away from each other to keep themselves from talking throughout the flick — at least that’s how it sounds in a cellphone video of them recapping the incident for the cops.



If the crew didn’t happen to have brown skin and dig Allah, perhaps it would’ve been written off as annoying teenage behavior. But apparently East African-looking dudes with backpacks moving in the dark freaked out some paler folks in the crowd. In a Facebook post accompanying the video, one of the teens wrote that some people thought they were going to “blow up the movie theater” and called the cops.



“More than 15 whites start running from the theater like we about do some stupid shit,” wrote Facebook user Akram Oromo.
