You know, before I came to the City, I always knew criminals could be stupid but I always thought they just exaggerated it in the comics.

Just an example but I didn't think any criminals actually threw their guns away when they ran out of ammo. I thought it was just something they put in the comics and TV shows to make the bad guys seem dumber. But since coming to the City, it seems like every dumb crook took some kind of training course that tells them to do it.
It's like, if none of your bullets worked, what is you chucking your weapon at me supposed to do? Do they hope their gun is going to suddenly turn into a grenade? What's the logic in that?
[Joel shakes his head.]
Were the real criminals in everyone else's worlds just as dumb or is this something unique to the City?
