I’m a cashier, and it’s really strange just how easy it is to spot a criminal. It’s like they go out of their way to fit as many stereotypes as possible into their identity.

Someone tried to pay with fake bills earlier today at work, wearing a baseball cap, reflective glitter sunglasses, a leather jacket, and jeans, smelling of cigarettes talking in a heavy accent with a silent large guy following behind him, and pretending to not understand English even as he pulls fake bills out from a bulging pocket.

Like, wtf

    I find the things all the time, so I’m definately missing a lot. That’s not really what I’m talking about though.

    Which makes your question “Why do a specific subset of criminal folk, that I’ve defined as looking and acting in a specific fashion, look and act in a similar fashion?”
