Crime should be practiced more

Nobody practices at crime, i wonder what the worlds crimerates would be, if criminals put the same effort into their abilities, as law officials and the military does.

So far, in the world, only a very few criminal organizations have the same military capability as a government military force. They can be heavily armed, yes, but rarely as heavily as a real army. The mexican cartels are an example of criminals with the aggressive capabilities of a smaller government army.

But on the street level, the criminal is pretty much a noob compared to the cop, in most activities.

Take driving skills, for example. M-hm, say no more.

There are examples of that too, for example, which type of criminals DO have a pesky habit of getting away from cops? Illegal street racers, and they seem to be the only ones who more than often, do get away. Why? Practice!



Criminals who get so deep into the game, that they would be treated by special police, should go through weekly combat training, close quarter combat, urban warfare, field trips, the whole deal. That way, when special forces arrive, they are suddenly in for an even match. Criminals would be wearing bullet proof vests, and helmets, and goggles to protect their vision from splinters. They would throw flash-bang grenades at the cops, stun them, and take them out by the entrance, and take off in the swat-van, hop into the waiting helicopter and ACTUALLY get away!

Something holds them back.

It is most likely the hierarcical structure of the career of crime, how it builds itself up, as opposed to how you _enter_ a position directly, in a law enforcement career. A policeman enters a legitimate working place, with certain expectations, and a nicely fixed salary. A criminal enters his career, usually as a youngster, without any rights, and whos only expectations are to get some free weed from the surplus.

If organized crime organized itself further, down the ranks, to include even the lowest ranks, the street level runners, they would be able to keep better a better trained "staff", they would be less likely to lose people to prison or to gunfire, and in the long term, they would make more cash.

In the short run tho, like any change, it would probably expose them more. Organized crime survives, precisely, on its fragmented nature of organization, each branch functions on a completely autonomous level, the street level dealer sells how much he wants, keeps how much he wants, and sells to whoever he wants. Thats their security, cops can get the street level dealer, and maybe the guy above him, but rarely get much further unless a LOT of resources are put into the investigation.

Most illegal trade is only "traceable" one way, the way the goods go.

I wish the best for organized crime, it exists because the human species demands it to exist, it provides the products that are SO needed by our species, that people will die for it.

The only reason organized crime takes lifes, is that the offers they give, are forbidden. I'm not gonna go too much into morals here tho, but as long as certain craved services remain illegal, its only natural that someone should defy that, and deliver the goods anyway.

There.
