This “swarm” thievery is actually an old, old gypsy trick and practiced internationally. A person getting mobbed by gypsy kids who pick them clean may be centuries old. Gypsy women were the first group reported in the USA to mob stores. Mess with one and you mess with all of them. Now they are more economically entrenched selling used cars. With the advent of electronics, flash mobs gathered via text messages on phones may become a nasty trend. God forbid. Wait, as I recall, we used the “swarm” technique to exit a building occupied during a student protest–inviting sympathetic souls to swarm the doors as they were opened to confuse the identity of who was inside illegally as intermingled with not-so-innocent bystanders. May the Lord make us wise as serpents and harmless as doves. How can we use this with Congress?
