Man Tries to Rob Bank With a Spoon, Gets Laughed At

 

Poland: Police are hunting for a ginger-haired man who attempted to hold up a Lublin bank armed with a spoon.

Everyone in the bank dived for cover as the would-be robber charged in bellowing that this was a stickup. It was quickly realised that his weapon was a spoon, not a gun, and he was laughed out of the bank.

"It's a weird one but he broke the law and we want to find him," said Renata Laszczka-Rusek, a spokesperson for police.

  hmm  
 I think they should take this guy out back and beat him with a rubber hose...that would be a quality punishment for stupidity.

can we start branding the people that do things like this? I think branding based on stupidity should be fair...kind of..

 in some cases is more effective than letting the police deal with it. Case in point: some knucklehead tried sticking up a bar full of Hell´s Angels a couple of years ago. The biker gang didn´t bother the police with this incident - they handled it themselves and I´d be willing to bet no one, least of all this dope, has tried robbing this bar again.
