      six week investigation...

      They spent 6 weeks investigating this?

      So a J walker would take them about 3 weeks, and a armed robber about 9 years. How pathetic can you get?

      Sorry we don't have enough manpower to investigate your house getting broken into, wait did you say there is a donut shop across the street? Maybe we can give it a month or two.

        6 weeks is quick

        Just consider the number of man hours they put in collecting evidence? Have you no compassion for the poor wives who had to put up with, "Sorry dear, don't hold dinner for me as I'm working late tonight on that darn donut case again. I've almost got it but I just need a little more evidence. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow if I can put this case to bed tonight... again."

    Never happens in Argos

    The only 'interesting' thing to happen to me whist calcifying in the foyer of Argos, waiting for a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal to go and find my item from a stockroom shelf, get curious as to what it is, open it and play for a while, then bung it randomly back in the box before throwing it down a hole in the floor to smash on the ground of the shop floor, from where another Neanderthal scoops it up in a dustpan & brush, pours the remains into a bag and then hands it to me, before telling me I have to queue up at the till to complain and get a refund.... is a drug dealer offering me his wares.

    You have to respect the initiative and marketing prowess of a man clearly able to identify a bored captive audience looking for something to restore the life draining from their heavy eyes.

    I'm surprised there aren't more 'shoppers' lurking in the Argos foyer and making 'polite' conversation with the lonely-looking male punters whilst dressed like Lady Gaga.

    I've always wondered why it was illegal in the first place

    Every reason I come up with is to prevent crimes that are already illegal. All of which would be easier to investigate and prevent if the victims were a little more willing to come forward. Its legal in Nevada and the state hasn't gone to hell in a hand basket.

    1. sisk

      Religious influence in the law

      It's illegal for the same reason that you can't buy alcohol in Sunday in some places (like here). Someone decided that it's immoral and therefore should be illegal. If you think about it you'll realize that that's true for most victimless crimes.

    2. Destroy All Monsters Silver badge

      You know that!

      1) It is illegal in Iowa to dismember a corpse in order to hide a crime.

      2) With Caylee's Law (i.e. the anti-Casey-Anthony law), it will be illegal to NOT call police if you haven't seen your brat for 48h and he/she turns up dead afterwards.

      It's like a series of Monty Python's Flying Circus, only more real.

    Lengthy investigation and criminalization aside...

    ... "Operation Extra Sugar" wins my personal Best Codename Ever Award. Equally hilarious as "Operation Beaver Cage" and "Operation Grizzly Forced Entry", but without disconcerting undertones.

    On the other hand... low level employees in fast food industry making a few bucks aside... police doing a sting operation...hardly a news, I´d say.

    And my condolence to "concerned citizen" who tipped the cops off. I pray for you, mister, to find one day a joy and purpose in the life, which was apparently both taken away from you a long, long time ago...
