These banks make inordinate amounts of money. That is the best camera they can handle? Maybe they want to be robbed. Maybe that way they can charge us more interest and fees. Screw you banks.

No disrespect but that area is totally flooded with Hispanic families... there are two big bus stops right there as well as a few more around the corner...
