a few years ago up here there was a rash of robbery attempts where the pretty girl comes to the door saying they had car trouble and when the home owner comes out the boy friend robs them. then it was tried out in the sticks and when boytoy jumped out of the bushes he got whacked with a .45.
that shiite stopped.

It would go better with those stupid costumes, of course. But porch pirates would also be acceptable.
