This is a VERY bad example. In some states it is illegal to own lockpicks
unless you are licensed by the state as a locksmith. Owning a set of
lockpicks is not only illegal you can be charged with any and all breakins
that have been commited (using lockpicks) within anywhere from the last 12
months to the last seven years.
