This seems like a no-brainer, to me, and makes me wonder why someone hasn't thought of it years ago. I read an article about this very subject in the Beacon. Some banks are posting signs at the front door stating, "Absolutely no hats, sunglasses, or bandannas permitted". This leaves the robber with the choice of removing his little disguises before he enters the bank (making him vulnerable to identification on the bank's camera system) or leaving those items on his head, which immediately pegs him as a perp. This gives the tellers a "heads up" and time to push the silent alarm button. <br /><br />The banks that have adopted the new signs are reporting a big drop in robberies.Blanket Party Funnoreply@blogger.com
