That's too bad, Janet. At least you weren't trying to drive the bus through all of that confusion.
I think that the reason that banks are robbed more now is because of everyone's finances. I can see people getting desperate because it is so much harder to make a living now and people have so much debt.

I think Diana is right. People are losing homes in record numbers right now so they're not only financially ruined, they're mad at the banks... so take it out on them. Small town banks are actually a pretty easy target I would think. I know when I worked at the bank one of the first things they taught us was what to do should we get robbed. It never happened, but seriously, there wasn't a lot happening to prevent it.

It's 6:30 AM and so far nothing on the news. Sure wish I knew what happened.

I think our Assist. Principal had it wrong. None of the banks in our county were robbed, a robber was being chased through our county on the highway our school is on. That's what the flashing lights must have been.

There is truly something wrong when violent crime escalates like this - they know they are being caught on camera and don't care - it's a strange commentary on our society. What are we doing to fix it?

That does make a lot of sense. It is becoming apparent that many folks are in despair.
