If you could get away with one single crime

What would it be?

Mine would be robbing a bank I think. Plenty of money to keep me going

Rigging the euromillions so I won 100% (especially if I can rig a few rollovers in the previous weeks)

The way I see it is its a victimless crime. The money was waiting to be won, no one is anymore deserving than anyone else so why not me?

I’d like to be able to get away with driving into inconsiderate drivers and just shrugging at them when they start losing their shit.

you know the type, arseholes who park across 2 bays to “protect” their car, those who use parent spaces or park across no park areas just because they are clearly special.

Id absolutely LOVE to just smash into the side of them. I don’t want to hurt them of course, just massively inconvenience them when I provide them with fake contact and insurance details (as well as a fake licence plate!)

I have often fantasised about some sort of spike that comes out my car to catch stupidly parked vehicles or aggressive motorway drivers or people who cut me up etc.

I'd just like them to feel the consequence of their actions without having to damage my car

I would like for someone who really badly wronged me to have everything they hold dear slip away from them. Their job, house, future prospects and the respect and love of everyone who right now somehow cannot see what a vile person they are.
I'm not sure what the crime would be to make that happen, but I'd do that!

Oh shit, screw my last post. I'd do this instead!

Yup murder, definitely murder.

thedogsmum · 20/02/2023 20:50

I can't put mine here in case it's read out in court at some stage.

PuppyQuestions · 20/02/2023 20:54

And there was I thinking I’d rig the job interview I have this week… murder, wow! 🤣

paulaparticles · 20/02/2023 21:01

One crime. Murder everyone i wish to in one go.

CeriB82 · 20/02/2023 21:03

Id like to kill a local guy who is a cunt.

many would thank me. But he has a dodgy heart, so he could drop any day. Which would be grand

Hawkins003 · 20/02/2023 21:04

@Soubriquet insider trading on the stock market to make about £250,000 - £750,000 so I can then begin my business and retire from my current role.

To corner any child bullying one of my children and threaten them and, depending on severity of the bullying they’ve inflicted, physically harm them.
I am a professional woman who has never so much as flicked another human being, but someone bully my child… and I wouldn’t give a f* how old they are and if such an opportunity arose where I knew I wouldn’t be caught… I would leave them profoundly disturbed and possibly physically harmed

Wow

purpleme12 · 20/02/2023 21:05

Making the people who are harassing us feel the same as we've felt.
How would I do that?
Unsure if harassing them back would work to be honest....

I guess damaging their garden or their car might work actually!!

These threads make me so glad for the law 😂 is this really all that stops you? I’m hoping most of these are lighthearted and jokes.

mostlysunnywithshowers · 20/02/2023 21:13

It's a tough choice between something that benefits just me, like a lifetime supply of money, and doing away with nasty people, which benefits everyone. I always wanted to invent a bioweapon that took out greedy people or sociopaths. Just why are there so many t#£%s!!

Wallywobbles · 20/02/2023 21:32

If I won the lottery I'd like to have an assassin on retainer.

lljkk · 20/02/2023 21:36

I'll have 20% of Jeff Bezos' fortune. That would do me nicely and he can't even notice.

Doihavetogotoworkdotcom1 · 20/02/2023 14:33

I would kill my neighbours

Oh my god 😂😱

If that doctor ruined the poster's daughter's life by negligence and then covered it up, I completely understand the rage.

I'd want that maniac gone over there in Russia.

I don’t blame them either

Nope mine isn't and the scary thing is I know exactly who it would be and exactly how I'd kill them

WordtoYoMumma · 20/02/2023 21:51

"getting away with" doesn't mean consequence free so I'm not sure what crime I could live with the guilt of! Maybe train fare evading and I'd go all the way to Scotland 😊 how would I get home though?

upinaballoon · 20/02/2023 21:52

'the arseholes who park across two bays to protect their cars'

I like the fact that you'd love to smash into them. I saw a young, thin woman do this a couple of weeks ago, with her posh car.

I also like the Putin in pink crime.

I'd like to rampage through this village with a gun and a heavy weapon and obliterate every outside light which is unnecessary and not on a 5 minute timer.

scotstarstrikestwo · 20/02/2023 21:58

Very dark but ending my birth mother

H34th · 20/02/2023 22:02

My first thought was definitely money (yes, robbing a bank - I'm a 90s kid).
I was surprised by the murder comments. Did not expect that all.

Steal something unique and beautiful like a famous painting or jewel.
