And there's another name for 'casing the joint', it is 'looking around'. Looking around generally isn't a crime. Neither is casing a joint, for that matter. And like I suggested with port scanning, whether someone was 'looking around' or 'casing the joint' is really only determinable after they've robbed the joint or not. Before that point, you're almost stabbing in the dark.
"Looking around" Rockefeller Center generally isn't a crime. "Looking around" where you're in my back yard and peeking in the windows is, at a minimum, trespass, and if our local cops notice you doing it, you can expect that you may find yourself ... severely inconvenienced. There is no "freedom to look around" on private property, despite what you appear to think. ...
