I've often thought about how fun it would be to get to play the "robber" in a police training scenario. I'd definitely join if there was something like this happening in my city, though I'd prefer it to be a more serious excercise.

EDIT: The comments here are even more unsurprising that the fact that the sun rose this morning.

What??? The sun rose this morning??? Well how long has THIS been going on??? I was under the impression that earth revolves around the sun, and the sun is a stationary flaming ball of scary!

Guys......if the sun is moving, we got big problems on our hands......BIG problems....
