This is what we should do to stupid criminals like the guy below:
It’s bad enough being a criminal but being a dumb one must be really bad – You know your robber is really stupid when he tries to rob you by pretending his extended finger is a gun. Yep. That’s what an unidentified man who fled the scene did after an unsuccessful attempt at robbing a Git-N-Go convenience store in Des Moines Iowa this past December.
His robbery attempt was foiled when the clerk noticed that the gunmans thumb was visible from his pocket. He was holding his hand in his pocket as if he had a gun. The clerk argued with the man, who insisted that he really did have a gun in his pocket.
I guess the guy fled when he realized the gig was up.
