Some people seem to be surprises that Federal and state laws do not coincide in all cases.
I watched a report a while ago from a local news station that Hummer's are in essence illegal in florida due to there width. They exceed the state law requirements by an inch and a half or so. So owners could be ticketed. Judges could recommend to buy a new one; and cops can write tickets. Its conflicts like these that happen when you have federal, state, city, county and even legally enforceable HOA's laws that each try's to cover every aspect of your life. there tends to be overlaps and conflicts in them.
You probably also blame video games for violence too; Dont you?
Got news for you, I enjoyed that movie and have no intentions of becoming a "cunning, ingenious and novel" criminal. Neither do 99.99% of the people that watched that movie. the other .01% are stupid enough to do the crime long before they saw the movie. And that of course would imply that oceans 11 movie was anything like this crime which it was i guess if you count stealing being involved, I guess that movie inspired whoever snatched your purse too. I think Idiots like you should be banned from voicing an opinion, or better yet, from voting. You should never take away the right of the common people because you have an opinion that people did something wrong with that common right. (ie. guns, violence in games and movies, other crimes in games and movies, motorcycles, powerfull cars, blah blah blah) /rant
