Eh?

I don't follow. We're not doing anything of importance (a criminally short view considering you probably know little about everyone posting here) so we can't - rightfully - brand these criminals as stupid?
Your not doing anything news worthy, correct? Then you obviously aren't doing anything that is worthy of remembrance. At least they made it into the news, yes?
So we shouldn't insult the stupid because they did something so ridiculous they made it into the news?

The stupid and the inept make it into the news all the time.

And you have no idea if I'm not doing anything news worthy. For all you know, I could be making breakthroughs in the treatment of cancer.

I mean, I'm not, but the possibility is there. You know what they say about making assumptions.

ah selective reading of forum posts got to love it well here you go again jim

"Jimmy instead of just robbing the kid and his house then going to buy a ps3 themselves they took the kid along and forced him to buy it, how is that not stupid?"

EDIT - and thats just one reason how about they used guns in the first place when fists a knife even a baseball bat would of worked fine.

There was that whole scene made about banning PS2's from Iraq (early 2000 I think?) because they can be modified to become missile-guidance systems. Dunno if that was the truth or not, but might apply to this situation.

So... wait...

They expected a teenager to be able to get them a gun?

Why did they want a gun anyway, since they were already armed?

And why did they choose the PS3 over the XBox?

Oh God, my head...
WE all know why they chose the PS3...

because even idiots know its better

As a Florida resident, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if this turns out to be legit.

Does anyone else think this is just the (very) elaborate excuse that the kid gave his parent's for taking there money and buying a PS3?

Oh c'mon, this story came out of FLORIDA. Of course, it could be true! It's Florida!

Even fark.com has a special label for news that comes out of Florida because it's so weird/stupid.
I can't debate that for a second.

Idiotic crimes (Some petty, others, not so much) happen down here all the time.

Ever been to walmart?

They won't let you hear curse words on CD's sold at their store but they'll sell a 9 year old a semi automatic if the kid has his lunch money.
