I think the question is, rather - Can you get hired by a locksmith company without knowing how to pick a lock?

I could be totally wrong on this, but I believe locksmiths are required to be bonded, fingerprinted and licensed.

WTF #@*)DKLJ 

I sent an email to that newb at the newspaper... UM, where do they think locksmiths learn stuff?  Should they have to pay to become a locksmith??? 

So stupid.

Now, this requires a response. Has anybody started drafting something? If not, I will.

Oakland Police Chief Howard Jordan was not pleased.

"I'm in shock that people would provide a class to teach people a skill to violate the law," Jordan said. "It's unconscionable."

Lock-pick instructor Michael Fitzhugh is a member of TOOOL (The Open Organisation Of Lockpickers), a Netherlands-based outfit that teaches and holds national and international lock-picking events annually. In their world, lock picking is done for sport and bragging rights. But, he says, it's also a useful tool if you lock yourself out of your home.

Jordan has a more conventional solution to that problem: "Call a locksmith!"

Even worse than Quan, this guy's so desperate to change the subject about the incompetence of the OPD in news story after news story. 

Unconscionable!?! This coming from a police department that was about to go into an unprecedented federal receivership for its failure to reform; not to mention a police department seared with a global reputation for brutality, racism, and excessive means; and whose fundamental miscalculations and mismanagement of the response to Occupy cost the city millions of dollars.
