Trollstation back at it again.

This really isn't anything new, especially for trollstation. They're always getting into shit with the police.

-EDIT-

I don't mean to sound like an ass or anything (it's the way it reads, at least in my head), I'm basically just saying this is nothing new. I'm not trying to imply that it was pointless to post this or anything like that.

A prank should be funny for everyone involved, including the ones being 'pranked'. IMO when you're drawing your enjoyment and your views from other people's negative feelings it stops being a prank.

These were not pranks.  They were crimes.   Quite a bit of difference.   You can't just do something this stupid and then say it is a prank so everything is fine.  

 

Some of these idiots are going to get killed eventually.   

Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.

One time I was driving down the road and saw my neighbor walking his dog...I slammed on the gas and ran that furry bastard over. I jumped out the car and before my neighbor tried to kill me, I told him "just a prank, bro!". We still laugh about that moment to this day..../s to the 10th power.

 

really >_>

 

All these prank channels need to stop. The only one remotely funny is the one with the gf/bf. The reason being both are in on it! All these stupid videos of people pulling illegal shit like bomb hoaxes and fake kidnappings should face punishment. A couple weeks behind bars is BS I think they deserve more for potentially causing traumatic experiences for the innocent bystanders in the gallery. I know I would have a mini-heart attack if two masked robbers busted into the room I was in.

This was a genuine hoax bomb threat - pretending to have live bombs and placing threats with them is illegal, regardless of whether its 'just a prank'.

 

The law succeeded in doing its job if these morons get jail time, pranking isn't a free pass to break the law, or more likely the idiots didn't even know the law in the first place.

 

The only prank channels that get pranking right is the ones that prank other willing parties, like BFvsGF, and Nikki and John (can't remember their channel name).

Linus is my fetish.

You can't yell "FIRE!" in a crowded theater; if it don't pass the "Clear and Present Danger Test", you can't do it.

Oh wait it wasn't a fake bomb threat, but a fake theft.

 

Theft is still illegal, you couldn't just walk into a bank and get away with a prank roberry, so nowhere else should it be allowed either.

Well the sentences aren't even that long anyway, 4-5 months for each of them.

Deserved indeed, I'm fine with those proper harmless pranks which can easily be see as a prank and doesn't do damage to anyone but stuff that are too real is not good :P 

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...
