Rent A Casket



Happened yesterday in Delaware. A young guy robbed a bank in a decaying shopping mall and used a Rent-A-Center truck to make his getaway. How did he get the truck? He worked there and had the keys.
Rent-A-Robber was pursued by several citizens driving leased cars. They called 911 as two state cops and a county cop joined in the chase of a box truck with a governor on the engine. Well not actually Delaware’s governor because who wants a truck that can’t go uphill?
The guy turned down a service road was boxed in and so came out brandishing a non-loaded pellet gun designed to shoot plastic pellets.
Three cops went center mass with deadly force and that was most emphatically that.
The cops were placed on paid administrative leave and immediately and ironically ended towards the beach to rent umbrellas and chairs and potato air rifles to shoot tennis balls into the surf for the retriever to fetch.
It’s a fine line between good and really bad decisions.

Comments:
Geniuses end up in jail because of arrogance. The remainder of the residents are usually lacking in gray matter. No need to ask "What were you thinking?" because he wasn't and hasn't. Reminds me of football players who take off their helmets in a fight, what possible good is going to come of this?
