Time for the newest entry in our series of utterly stupid wrongdoers!
Setting: A cell phone store near Pueblo, Colorado.
A 60-something man with a felony record sees a younger man talking to the clerk. He apparently decides he’s got an easy score, so he identifies himself as a cop, and asks the man in front of the desk if he’s a drug dealer because he has so many phones. He then demands that the younger man give him the drugs. The younger man asks for his credentials, and the older man demands the drugs again.
ooopsie!

A young twenty-something guy breaks into an elderly man’s house thinking that the theft would be easy pickings. Unbeknownst to him, the man he is seeking to rob is a former pugilist. Let’s just say he got the beating of his life, lol.
I saw that on Facebook, and–yes–that was definitely a howler!
