Outlawness in the old west used to be simple

Back then it was very easy to rob banks & trains. But back those days if you rob a train you better hope the army isnt guarding the money or the gold or youre a dead duck! But Banks were so easy to rob if you plain them.Sheriff Deputies dont have radios or fast squad cars. Banks didnt have cameras or alarms. I can very easy rob this bank

And then hop on my horse and hide out and count the money

yeah robbing banks nowadays is the pits. Exploding dye bags, silent alarms, DNA testing. I think it's still pretty easy to steal horses, though.

Its still very easy to shoplift too small things if you know the tricks to em.
