Yesterday

Some things changed right after I claimed nothing had changed. The police came knocking on our door. They were looking for our favorite neighbor, Jose, who is wanted for attempted robbery. Turns out he has some aliases. Isn't that just lovely.

Now let me tell you all about robbery since it is one of the many topics I took a test on today.
  1. Robbery- the use or threat of force to obtain money or property
  2. Robbery is a crime of direct confrontation.
  3. Most robbers are violent people.
  4. You are more likely to be injured if you resist (don't resist).
  5. You are more likely to be injured if the robber has NO weapon (because you are more likely to resist).
  6. 40% are committed with gun, 20% with a knife, and 40% with no weapon.
  7. Prison time for robbery is up to life in prison.
