bush stomping on my 1st amendmant rights

[AquaShrimp]

I've always thought that people who wear hats indoors are big handsomehunkes anyways.

Just when you think the Feds have done everything that can possibly set off the "Stupid Alarms"...........they always top it.
This would be over the top in hilarious here in Texas.
Just yesterday I witnessed around 20 bank robber suspects in the local bank, going by these standards.
Is it time to start selling Tricky Dicky masks on eBay?



Picture this scenario.................
Two armed men are about to enter a bank with robbery on their mind.
Rushing to the door one reachs out and stops the other just before entering.
"Dude, take off your hat. It`s illegal you know".

Stupidity in it`s finest hour.

What amazes me is the people that decide to interpret there freedoms as only coming from the Bill or Rights.  Why in gods name would you volunteerily automatically toss out countless freedoms like that....unless you know, you're a socialist.


The banks as private business should be able to put whatever conditions they want on people entering their private property.

The government passing a law telling you what clothing you can were when going to someone else's private property is freaking atrocious, and bizzare.  You know who else tells you what to wear?  That's right a freaking NANNY, literally!  Jeebus.

Govt insures the money in these banks, and gets its agents kilt trying to catch these salamanders

The thing about it is......what would it do in reality to prevent or catch a bank robber?
Nothing! Does anyone honestly believe that a bank robber and or robbers would actualy give a crap about a law not allowing hats and shades?
I certainly hope noone is that naive.
What it would do in reality is be one more nail in the coffin of the average Joe.
One more thing controlling your everyday life and would do nothing to hinder the criminal in any shape, form or fashion . (Pun intended )

Teller could hit hold-up as afore-mentioned salamander enters bank, which give police an extra 3 or so minutes to catch him

So therefore they should be allowed to treat you and every other law abiding citizen like children?

Teller can hit hold-up when someone enters wearing a Tricky Dicky mask also.
Usualy makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. The only ones who ever gets caught in this manner or the occasional brain dead. A bank robber could give a rat`s *** how many stupid rules/laws you make up that only hampers the public, not them.
The ones that know what they are doing know the banks top to bottom before the robbery attempt.
On the other hand, if this was tried in Texas, the teller should apply Tuffskin to their punching finger for the first few weeks of any such BS. She/he would need it. After that time such alarms would be treated casualy and suspected another false alarm.
In the meantime the Fed boys would have took another step in total control and lack of freedom for the citizen. It`s ridiculously stupid. It`s also see through.

It's just an example of "feel good" legislation designed to make it look as if the legislature was really doing something instead of nothing.

If the bank robbers were concerned about breaking laws, they wouldn't be robbing banks, a somewhat illegal activity in itself.

HOW can ya say it doesnt make any difference if the hold-up alarm can be fired as the guy walks in the door, instead of waiting until he goes thru line and hands teller the note? Perhaps some chithole towns in Texas (prolly peso's ANYway:D ), but for the vast majority of banks, it makes a damn big difference in catching the guy or not
