WTH??? Were the police so bored that they had to CREATE thieves?? Unbelievable! What the heck was the purpose of this? How stupid.
Ayn Rand would love it!
I dunno. I can see Ragnar Danneskjöld setting up a decoy trap to catch the “looters,” and then kicking some major ass.
Francisco d’Anconia did something similar in Reardon’s mill, if I recall.
