Many years ago my ancestors landed here on the very first boat to these new shores, life as a criminal was bound to happen. Times were hard and not what any of the flyers I saw in mother Russia even came close to the depravity of this so called "Promised Land"

Drugs and liquor was everywhere but the thing that caught their eye was the bulging pockets of the people here that were well off.

My family adopted the new rule of "If they don't see, you they won't miss it"

It was a hard but sometime fulling life.....we did lose a few cousins to a over active and protective few people. This was a black time for all. Many said that if you have the money don't show it off. (Use the bank) Others did not care at all about sharing there wealth, they could make more on the next pickup. Of course back then the pockets were made deeper and many could reach deep for a lot of cash.

Now with the new money clips the amount was limited to 5k not bad still, and any Rich person should and would never miss that amount.

So if you see any of me or any of my Russian friends near your pockets be for warned "We may ...no we will lighten your load if you choose to show off your wealth.

Bank it or Live with a lighter load.

Thanks for your time and have a good day turns and heads towards the bank were the pickings are good.

My point also

Hence I have adopted the stance of "Live with it" 5k really is not worth the pain of arguing over. If you are so hooked on the

"IT MY MONEY"   if you want to save it Bank it

5 k can be earned by a gangster in 5 minutes I don't understand why anyone would have an issue. The banks have been here longer for that matter.

If people are to lazy to make a couple more clicks and bank it, then their pockets will be open for any attack now matter what the profile says .
 

Well that would be an interest thought...not true, but worthy of some debate.

its part of the game.. whats 5k to people its nothing ... if they cry like bitches then they need to be shot.

Let's see, well I have PP'd Brick countless times. 

Chocolope chuckles

What I find even more funny is that a lot of those that complain about the measly 5k I steal from them and then wipe my ass with is that they will gamble away so much more than that then publicly say it to the rest of the crew. But if a FAMILY member reaches into their pocket they get all uppity about it, even though that family member is most likely going to contribute that to their leader instead of waste it to some blackjack dealer. 

I got mugged less than 5 minutes ago as well, oh well, good thing I banked their 5,000 right after I did it!

BoomBoomBetty nods in agreement, however she raises her right index finger to make a point.

My great great...great grand-mother believed the same as all  of you. However, a certain pickpocket incident was brought to her attention and with a roll of her eyes, she dismissed it. "Oh please, just bank your money." she said, or something of the sort.

Well, not only she got into trouble with one Godfather, but she got into trouble with two Godfathers. She ended up apologising (with clentched teeth) and made restitution of course.

From that point on, without changing her personal opinion, she learned to respect other peoples wishes and made sure people around her checked suits before posing such an act.

You need to tread carefully, you never know who you are dealing with.

Out of a flash Castiel appears, he stumbles around. Seeming drunk.

I found a liquor store...and...and drank it.

All all in all, why must we discuss pick pocketing? We are all thieves. Am I right?

I hate you FastFingersFreddy.

You all seem to semi agree the PPing is in our lives to stay

Let learn to live with it, many pockets I have picked and many I will still pick.

Kal_El I know where you live and I believe your pockets are next. LOL

 if you don't want to be mugged. then try to dig your hands inside the pockets of corrupt agents.

Agreed! I guess you can say that's the safest way to go.
