In the past, I have blogged about inept thieves, marijuana users, pot growers and even drunk college students to provide rules and guidelines to help them. I didn't intend to encourage crime. I just am sympathetic towards stupid people. Stupidity runs in my family too. The main reason I do this is that if I’m ever a victim, I want the criminal to be a hell of a lot smarter than I am. The criminal must be of superior intelligence like a mastermind or kingpin of the underworld. If you're one of those people, please don’t take this as a challenge. If I’m ever a victim of an inept, bungling, dull witted thug, I’d be embarrassed to admit it. I might not even report it. If you're one of those people reading this, please don’t take this as an invitation. Here is a case in point.
San Diego County police have charged a vandal who wrote graffiti in the courtroom where he was being prosecuted for vandalism and possessing tagging tools. Police later searched his house and found evidence linking him to the graffiti. His artwork with his moniker were on courtroom chairs and hallway benches. So much for courtroom security. He managed to smuggle his tools into the building. Thank goodness, he didn’t have a weapon. Here are some guidelines for this poor smuck to consider:
1. It should go without saying that if you are accused of a crime, don’t bring the evidence to court with you.
2. If you must commit a crime in court, don’t leave your signature, tag or business card. That also includes fingerprints, DNA or cellphones.
3. If you are accused of a crime, don’t leave the evidence in your home. Eventually, the police will search your place and find it. That also applies to computers and cellphones.
4. Just because no one saw you commit the crime doesn’t mean the police can’t find you. Don’t hang around waiting for accolades.
5. Freedom of speech and artistic expression doesn’t apply to graffiti or defacing of property.
