Late last night

Its always interesting to view the demographics of the area where both sides of a conversation live.

Yes it is. That was my point concerning violent crime rates between Kentucky and New York.

I suppose yelling "Bomb", or "I'm a terrorist" on an airplane is OK too?

Ever consider yelling "Theater!" in a crowded fire?

Won't work. Nobody will hear you over the roar of the greasepaint.

Another "joke."

PD: Teenager Tried To Rob Officer At Police Station « CBS Dallas / Fort Worth

Keithan Manuel is sitting inside the Dallas County Jail Tuesday night waiting for someone to believe him -- it was a joke, he told investigators. He didn't really want to rob that police station.

not to mention "the smell of the crowd"

Being the ole Grunt I am. Good thing it wasn't said with serious intent. Obviously no one took offensive action. But when they all turned to look the serious perpetrator would have. My point being by the time the perpetrator takes "accompanying action" it's a bit late to go on the offense.

thanks, that was the point I have tried to make and failed miserably.

Who says Freeze!?

The police say Freeze! Robbers don't say Freeze! (I Googled it, plus I've never heard that in the movies either.)

For the intended audience, folks in the convenience store, Freeze! is sort of funny if most have had close encounters with LEOs--which is entirely possible in some areas.

That's my new theory.

So tell us...what do robbers say instead of "Freeze"....something like: "This is a stickup" or "Hand over the money and nobody gets hurt" or some other witty choice of words....???

"Don't nobody move! Hands up! Don't move! Get over there! Don't move!"

"Don't nobody move! Hands up! Don't move! Get over there! Don't move!"

Hmmmmmmmm ... sounds like you've had practice
