As I sat there in the jail cell, I reviewed the sequence of events in my mind. How did I get here?
When the tour guide stopped at the Crown Jewels display, I specifically remember her saying "Priceless". She said, "This collection is PRICELESS." Any normal, innocent person would come to the same logical conclusion: priceless = no price = free.
So, naturally, I was surprised to be taken to the floor so quickly just for trying to grab some of this 'free' merchandise. I mean, they may say it has no price, but it sure looked to me as though I could fetch a decent price on e-bay or craig's list.
It was an honest mistake - no need for that billy club to the gut. A simple, "Hey, put that back" would have sufficed.
