Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
Seth, why do you keep talking about hammer attacks? The guy pistol-whipped people - you know, with a gun - that's where his nickname comes from.

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
My bad. I didn't read the root article, I just saw the "hammer" comment at the end of the OP and made an assumption that since I've been told time and time again that nobody in the UK possesses an illegal handgun and therefore there is no need for innocent citizens to be armed for self defense against said illegal handguns, I assumed he used a hammer.Xamonas Chegwé wrote:Seth, why do you keep talking about hammer attacks?

So, how is it that he had an illegal handgun to pistol-whip people with if the laws of the UK are so all-fired effective at keeping guns away from criminals.
Oh, wait, never mind, they aren't effective at all.
But thanks for pointing out my error because it just makes my point all the more valid.

Yes, you're right, because they don't exist. They are a propaganda fabrication of the police intended to frighten the gullible and comfort the sheeple.JimC wrote:They don't want people like you to know that...rEvolutionist wrote:

And here's why:
When somebody with a gun decides to rob a bank, everybody in the place knows he has a gun about three seconds after he enters the bank because he's shooting it to frighten everyone. If you think a detector is going to matter to such a person you're a bigger idiot than I thought.
Most bank robberies (here) happen because banks have decided to just give up the cash and let the FBI track them down, which they do about 93% of the time, so you don't need a gun or anything else to rob a bank here.You just walk in, demand the money and they give it to you, and you walk out. And they have lots of pictures from the high-def video system to use to look for you.
The very few they haven't caught are the smart ones who use effective disguises and who know how to launder the cash so they don't get caught holding the bag with the recorded bill numbers in it.
Most bank robbers don't understand that scanning technology permits the Federal Reserve to make a list of every single serial number of every single bill they distribute in the Fed deliveries. Until the cash makes it out of the bank and into circulation, the vast majority of bills are in a database somewhere as being delivered to that bank, which makes them easy to trace when they hit the market.
I'm surprised more people don't understand the vast scope and reach of the federal databases.

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
If you gonna rob for a living best to go for bullion or even better base metals like copper that aren't so heavily guarded or easy to identify. Vast swathes of unguarded electricity wires straddle the industrial landscape. Easy to make a living once you know what your doing. Why rob a bank when copper is going for $6700 a tonne? A small van and you are in the money after three months in the game. Careful to spread the area of operations so you don't flag up on some state computer, hide it in a barn until the market is on the up in a good way.Seth wrote:Yes, you're right, because they don't exist.

Lol. And how does one sell copper on the black market?? Do you just drive around the streets with it in the back of the van. "Hey Guv!, want some copper!".

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
Yeah, so basically it isn't actually the smart thing to do. Cash is heaps easier to launder/dispose of.

Depends on your background. Heavy duty electrical cables wouldn't phase me. Even cash needs a launderer like you say, only easy if you know a good one.rEvolutionist wrote:Yeah, so basically it isn't actually the smart thing to do. Cash is heaps easier to launder/dispose of.

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
You'd be surprised how many manufacturers using copper are prepared to pay cash for copper at 50% of the official rate, no question asked. It's not all that difficult to slide a ton of it into the back of a ute. especially when there's a hundred bucks in it for the storeman to turn his back. Cameras can't cover everything. From there you just head for a manufacturer of taps, hinges, valves... Six grand net for two trips totalling four hours might appeal to some. Trouble of course, was that the bloke got greedy and a bit careless. He was caught on his third lap, as was the receiver of the goods.rEvolutionist wrote:Lol. And how does one sell copper on the black market?? Do you just drive around the streets with it in the back of the van. "Hey Guv!, want some copper!".
Still, you're up for ten years gaol for armed robbery, even if you never fire a shot, and the average booty of armed bank robberies in Australia was something like $700. The copper thief got two years and was out on parole after three months.

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
No, you strip the wire of insulation, cut it up into manageable chunks and take it to just about any scrap yard and get $3.00 a pound for it, few, or no questions asked.rEvolutionist wrote:Lol. And how does one sell copper on the black market?? Do you just drive around the streets with it in the back of the van. "Hey Guv!, want some copper!".
It's gotten so bad that thieves stripped the wire out of a highway lighting system under construction literally overnight one night before it could be powered up. Cost more than $200,000 to replace it and they had to have someone guard the installation until they got it hooked up and energized.
More than one thief has fried himself trying to steal 7500 volt energized lines.
Homeowners have heard thieves ripping off copper gutters and roofing while the owners are at home.
People on vacation have come home to find their houses stripped of copper water pipes and electrical wire.
Three bucks a pound makes even a small haul worthwhile for meth-heads and illegals.
I've got about 600 pounds worth of 10/3 and 6/4 SO cord lying around from my ranch days. I bought it 20 years ago when it was cheap to run with the 15KW generator I had. I also have some welding cable I'm no longer using. I keep it locked up because if I left it outside, it wouldn't last a day.
Municipalities have to put armored boxes around brass vacuum breakers in park watering systems because thieves will steal them if they don't.
The real problem is the recyclers, who need to be treated like pawn shops. Most of them now require photo ID to recycle scrap metal, and the one I use takes a picture of you and the load of scrap you're selling and keeps it on file. That's helped a bit, but there is still a black market out there for copper and brass.

Re: Skull Cracker Walkies
Yeah, copper is the thing if your a smart crim these days. I'd recommend it so long as you know what your doing with regards high tension cables. It's hanging around like it's wanting to be taken. If you don't know what you are doing leave it be, the bites are fatal.
