If you were going to commit a crime

lumberjim · 11-06-2013, 10:31 AM

What would you do?

I think it would be interesting to steal a UPS truck early in the morning. Imagine all the cool stuff you'd find in there. Especially if you did it, say, on December 15th or so. Would you go UPS or FedEx ground?

I'm not actually planning this. I am just sitting on my porch having some coffee, and the UPS and FedEx trucks have both been left idling in the street while the lone driver ran their packages up to a house across the street. seems like it would be easy to pull off. I'm sure there are live cameras in there or gps trackers with ignition killers to prevent this kind of thing. ....

But I think it would be awesome to go through a full truck and open all the boxes. Like on Castaway. Id even give it all back. I really just want to know what is in them.

I bet there is some cool stuff mixed in with a bunch of boring stuff.

I'd be willing to commit pretty much any crime where there isn't a victim. If there's a victim, I'd feel guilty. Like that driver would probably lose his job and it's not like he has a bunch of job options in this economy. That would eat at me, knowing that.

But if I could siphon say half a percent or so out of the bank account of some rich jackass who wouldn't miss it, I'd probably be able to live with myself doing that. Say Donald Trump, for example. He'd be fine losing half a percent of his wealth and his organization would also be fine. He probably wouldn't have to lay anyone off. Or better yet, Dan Snyder.

I would steal a hook and ladder and drive cross country with the lights flashing and sirens wailing the entire way.

I've always thought that it would be great to knock over a drug money house. CS Gas, flash bangs, rubber bullets, maybe some 40mm bean bags, zip ties, shape charge for the wall entry, 4-6 guys to clear the joint, in and out in 5-7 minutes, four back packs full of mullah.

I'd like to knock over an Amazon warehouse.

Or an evidence room.

You are gonna get a time out, missy.

Gravdigr · 11-06-2013, 04:25 PM

I'd steal Dolly Parton's original boobs.

Maybe just motorboat 'em a little.

OK, a lot.

I'd concoct a plan...an undertaking, if you will, to develop and build an earthquake machine with which to destroy the Glades...

No, wait...

Old and busted. Michael Crichton used 'em in 'State of Fear' way back in 2004.

So there.

Damn. I was pitching for Arrow.

armored car and a heavy lift helo with eather a mag or grapple,
snatch it up ,
fly over a field , tell the folks in side to jump or get squashed ,
and then climb to say 10 ft drop it and crack it like an egg ,
it would be my luck for it to be full of pennies

Gravdigr · 11-06-2013, 05:51 PM

Old and busted. Stephen Hunter did it in 'Night of Thunder' way back in 2008.

So there.

Edit: Actually, they drove the armored truck up a mountain and lifted a pallet of cash out the back of it with a helo.

Sorry, sorry e'erbody, sorry.

So there.
