A policeman used to hang out in a coffee shop all day. Unsurprisingly that coffee shop never got robbed.

The hardware shop down the road had an idea, and constructed a cardboard silhouette of a policeman drinking coffee, and displayed it in front of their counter, thinking it would deter thieves.

The first week went by without incident, but then half-way through the second week, masked men burst in and snatched away the cardboard policeman.

It transpires that he just wasn't cut out for the job.
