This is a bit of a koan.
What gets many criminals caught is their obvious precautions. They act guilty. They look around and pivot their heads to look for witnesses. They rush away from the crime scene.
They look suspicious, which makes them look out of place. The average Murkan, which is the baseline everyone uses, is oblivious. The only people who know what’s going on in the streets is cops and cons.
The mark of a truly proficient criminal is a “cold-blooded” demeanor. Nothing should shake him, nothing should make him panic or lose his cool.
That’s why the police haul out that “cold-blooded” thing as if it is bad. Do you think SWAT cries after they shoot someone? No way. They go get pizza and a beer.
