yes its a video. watch it. its 2 minutes..

cliffs though:
kid goes into walmart with a fake badge, gun and handcuffs. claims he carries that for "protection" while walking to walmart.
his friend gets caught stealing. he claims to be cop and "arrest" his friend. manager ain't buying it and calls real cops. both get busted.
kid whines it was all a mistake.


lol if it worked it would be a great way to avoid being arrested. now i don't blame his story a bit. It's rather funny though.

What an idiot. Now he's going to face charges for impersonating an officer...which he should. Those charges are FAR worse than mere shoplifting.

Yea its a good way to 10x your jail sentence. Robbery fail.

At a BBY near me there was a story where some guys were ya know just perusing the LCD TV's. Asking about this one or that one, which was the most expensive and coolest. When no one was looking they loaded up a cart with like 5 of the most expensive LCD TV's and RAN straight out the front LOLOLOL. Never caught AFAIK.

ps, they are idiots and should be named in billboards and TV apperances. If they continue to play stupid, let nature have it's way.

As they did not get out of shoplifting, as the new crime is 100 times worse than shoplifting and as now they are both perps instead of just one of them, I'm going to go wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy out on a limb here and say "idiotic move".

Idiots. Instead of one count of larceny, they now have six. Larceny, impersonating, aid and abet larceny, aid and abet impersonating, plus two counts of conspiracy one each for larceny and impersonating. Nice work guys. (don't I ow what they were charged with there but that's what it would be here)

Would be awesome if done properly, meaning proper uniform and badge/gun and a white impala parked out front.

This way? Too many lawls.

as a cop..he would...he totally eventually would...

Still an arguably better situation than George Zimmerman because in that case he's actually a cop (with training, actual responsibility, etc), and his authority is legitimate, not only in his imagination just because he's carrying a weapon ;)

So, your saying that Zimmerman didn't have right to defend himself? :sneaky:
