Ninja Burglar
Ninja Burglar
I recently read in the news today about this “ninja burglar” in Staton Island. I just had to sit back and wonder what the hell is wrong with people? Thievery has always been prominent in human society true. And…. To a certain degree I respect sneak thieves because it is an art form. But why dress up like a ninja and wield nun chucks. I think that it’s taking this whole ninja vs. pirate thing way too far. Now there is even a video game about it! I’m expecting there to be a person who dresses like a pirate to go and start burglaring people. They’re going to see who can get the most houses. I think it’s pointless really.
As for the pirates vs. ninja debate, there really is no contest. While the ninja tries to fight with honour, the pirate will just shoot him. Pirate will win every time.
Anyway, back to the ninja burglar. New York City has defiantly pumped out it’s fair share of loony, but this is far and beyond. Someone just needs to set up a trap and get it over with. Go to this high end, rich neighborhood and ask one of the residents to if the FBI can use their million-dollar home as a trap. Let it slip in the neighborhood that this family has recently come into lots of inherited jewels, the Ninja’s favorite prize, because he is obviously watching these neighborhoods for days if not weeks. Then have the family leave on holiday or the like but leave agents in the building. When the Ninja breaks in, you got him. End of story.

Ninja burglar
Pretty logical, actually... The ninja burglar thing is a pretty effective outfit: wearing a snug-fitting, black get-up makes it harder to be seen at night (which is when he strikes most often). And there isn't any loose, flapping clothing to get caught on things (thus leaving clothing or DNA at the scene of the crime).
The old concept of the "cat burglar" has been around for a long time, and it uses much the same idea: wearing snug, black clothing so as to blend in better at night, avoid being recognized, and have maximum freedom of movement.
And if a ninja costume scares the homeowners, so much the better--they may be less likely to interfere if they run across the burglar.
There are too many homes to make any sense to stake out one of them. PLus the ninja burglar apparently watches the homes he's targeting pretty carefully before striking, so he'd probably smell a sting operation like you mention a mile away.
As for why he carries nunchuks... well, I guess they're easier to carry around than one of those big swords!
