It's not that someone looks like they're going to commit a crime. It's that someone says they're going to commit a crime. You don't get your free pair of border-running shoes without telling him you want to run the border. What the person looks like, is irrelevant.
On the other hand, if they stated no intent and just bought these shoes, it couldn't be called conspiracy. |
It would be a more reasonable worry, if the people really did have to declare an intention to run the border in order to get the shoes. But I don't see that suggestion in the article. From the facts as spelled out there, I can't see grounds for conspiracy charges. Charges for artistic grandstanding may well be warranted, though.
