Or atleast not get caught...

Obeying laws may soon really pay off in Washington, DC as lawmakers reportedly mull stipends for former criminals, just like in Richmond, California. However, only those who refrain from committing a new crime would be getting a reward.

On Tuesday, the DC Council unanimously voted in support of a bill that, among other measures, proposes to pay residents in order to discourage them from committing offenses, the Associated Press reported. The measure is aimed at reducing the crime rate in the capital, where homicides increased 54 percent last year

This one comes under the category of "you just can't make these things up".

Had you posted this 4/1/2016, you could have easily have shouted the next day, APRIL FOOL, and people would have believed you played a prank.

ONLY a criminally infested area, who has elected convicted drug addicts and felons on video as their mayor. What else can we expect from these sad people.
