Alright, let's say some homeless guy decided to walk around naked. More than likely the cops would toss him in jail for a night or something. He'd get free food and a jail uniform, and then probably some clothes for his release. Then he could walk a couple hours down the road and do the same thing in the next city. He'd get another free outfit. A week later he could walk to the first town, hide his clothes and tell the police they were stolen. that way he'd get a third outfit, and another night off the streets.
Eventually he could hord up enough clothes to give to all the other homeless guys in return for a favour. One night he'd call in that favour from everyone and be like, "hey everyone, lets go raid walmart and steal all their poptarts!"

imagine how many poptarts they would have :drool:

that's amazing!

i will remember this, and when i am homeless in a few years, watch the papers for the massive poptart raid!

i like your story
but form a legal standpoint as a repeat offender he wouldnt garner so many freebies and privaledges
plus.. well
i speak from experience

sand knows the way of the hobo :nod:

true...

but lets say he had no ID or anything, and he kept going to different cities,
they'd have no way of checking out his record.

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 3/10/2005, 2:59 am

he'd have to cross state/provincial lines in that case
im not entirely sure but i'd have to take a guess that repeated offenses, even if minor, would be something various police forces would share

yeah, but there's probably a decent amount of naked guys running around. he could pull it off at least three or four times if he's dedicated enough.

beautiful liar · Post by **beautiful liar** » 3/10/2005, 3:08 am

kinda depends. if it were nothing serious, and he stuck to really out-of-the-way places that were fairly spaced apart, no connection might be made.

or maybe he has a device to erase the collective police memory.

starseed_10 · Post by **starseed_10** » 3/10/2005, 3:11 am

well if he had that he could steal tons of poptarts on his own.

beautiful liar · Post by **beautiful liar** » 3/10/2005, 3:13 am

but he wouldn't be able to carry them all, or lead a hobo army. that's not as much fun that way.

claire is clearly correct
