This is true crow… Unfortunately, their stupidity is about the only way they seem to get caught.

About the “choice of clothing”. Only a retard planning to commit a crime would be dumb enough to wear pants that rest below buttocks and must be held up with hands in order to run. Not to mention bell bottoms that are 2 feet longer than legs in them. Good thinking, makes catching em much easier.

Once again, just take a look at the generic description of the suspects. It’s become so common to see it in the majority of all reports of violence and crime in our area. Just about the only difference between them is the hair style, choice of weapons, and clothing.
