    If I was committing unforgivable crimes I would think I would be smart enough that I wouldn’t be sending birthday cards with “nudge nudge, wink wink” air quotes in them.

    Your mistake is assuming these bastards are smart people.

    Like so many criminals, they only think they are smart. Much smarter than those who might try to stop them. The reality is often far different.

      Have you seen the police? They are smarter than those who might try to stop them.

        Have you seen the police? I’ve met cops who failed 11th grade three times in a row and joined the force because they flunked the ASVAB.

        A detective, I think, is who you’re referring to.
