While I understand that 'hyperdunking' doesn't break the rules - which alone is fine - the fact that it can be done shows that the crimewatch system doesn't exactly do what it should. Police are supposed to be a crime-prevention force and not 100% a crime-reaction force. CONCORD should be at least forceful enough to say "You misused your ship so we're taking it from you by force, and any other ship you bring out in the next little while that might try the same criminal activity" ... kinda like how people get arrested and then put in jail for at least a little while and not just immediately released.
How effective is a police force that responds to drunk driving by just taking the beer you have on you at the time, says "I've got my eye on you" and then leaves you alone until you mess up again ..?
The real issue is risk vs reward. For hisec grankers the risk[cost] is very low while potential rewards are very high. Within the grand scheme of EVE and its philosophy of risk vs reward there is too much favour for the gankers in hisec; it doesn't cost much ISK or Time or even Complexity to significantly multiply their investment.
Drones. Drones are a means to an end. An end to the ruthless Caldari 'progress' machines. An end to the barbaric 'redemption' proposed by the Amarr. What they see as chaos shall be my perfect order, merely beyond their comprehension.

What you believe what should be and actual reality doesn't go together. Now instead of being fixated on your silly idea, how about you acknowledge the reality of the game and how it works. I'll save us both time and ignore the rest of the drivel, because the beginning was already dismissable anyway. Thank you. 
I understand and actually appreciate the reality, but EVE is supposed to be all about risk/cost vs reward and criminals should have to really play that harsh game along with the haulers and wormhole corps and sov alliances.

You want the only playstyle in highsec that actually has consequences built into it to have even more stacked on top... so that you can commensurately reduce your own risk to actual zero.  People like you don't get to talk about risk vs reward, you don't even know what it means.
Cool but I have actually lived in nullsec and also currently live in w-space so *dismiss*
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK BLACK PEDRO FOR A THOROUGH AND WELL-SUPPORTED REBUTTAL
