Grocery store in my area (SW Missouri) was robbed by a guy in a mask. Next day the store had a new mask sign posted on its front door: Absolutely no masks allowed.
? These people are stupid!
My sister told me her bank in central Missouri now says masks are not permitted.
An elderly woman walked into the grocery store wearing a mask and as she got to the end of the first aisle where I was shopping, I saw her rip it off and told her 'good for you'.
I've been waiting for this to start happening, I can't wait for the pro-maskers heads to start exploding when they are told they can't wear their masks anymore like it used to be.
This is what I was thinking. Perfect time to commit some crimes like robbing banks, with these mask mandates. And I think it has been happening, just that the media has covered it up. I know of a hand full of stories of these types of CCP virus mask robberies but there are likely way more. And all of them were violent (people shot or run over by car).
I mean and this is very hypothetical
If you have a mask on,
Wear some sunglasses,
Wear a hoodie of x color
Wear nondescript jeans
Wear nondescript shoes
Wear gloves
I'm pretty sure you are basically undetectable.
Like you could roll in somewhere with a weapon, point it at whoever, take what you want and go. Even if people saw you and they got you on tape as long as people didn't see where you went after the fact you could probably just dump all the clothes and be perfectly fine.
I can not imagine a situation where you have any identifiable traits.
The caveat to this whole situation is if someone nuts are bigger than yours and they shoot back or fight you. In which case it gets bloody, and if it gets bloody they will identify you. But I mean if you just strolled in somewhere totally covered and walked out with a bunch of stuff with no resistance I don't see how you would be tracked.
Just leave phone at home and have someone pick you up in an older car.
Like the cam footage would at best get your sex height/weight estimation but if you are 5'10 170 dude then that doesn't really narrow anything down. I imagine they would have a hard time finding you at all. And if it was just a $100 worth of shit from a gas station I doubt they would really try too hard.
I used to do security and it was terrible if I walked across a car that had it's window broken where it did not just an hour before. But in those situations it really is that If the tree falls and no one is around to hear it, it did NOT make a sound.
A man robbed a credit union in my state years ago dressed in drag. Still has never been identified. So take your suggestions, and then wear a stuffed bra if you're a man or flatten your chest if you're a woman and you're good to go.
I know there was a robbery recently in my state, and of course the guy was wearing a mask, but it doesn't seem to have woken anyone up. I'm sure it has happened more...it's got to be a criminal's paradise out there right now.
Yup, need to throw in a fake limp, too.
