Whats with Austin and its endless bank robberies?Almost every other week,I seem to read of someone just entering a bank and decamping with undisclosed sum at gunpoint.Can't they hire one of those retired ex-servicemen or someone who can work for cheap just holding an unloaded gun in front of the branch akin to the good old way it is followed in India?That thing for sure works unless and until the culprit gets to know the trick of the guns and gun wielders at the entrance being a fake.
I guess this trend of rampant robberies at the Brick n Mortar bank locations can serve as a good advertisement gig for online banking!Although online banking has its own risk of lot of scams,at least one doesn't have to fear about getting killed at the hands of some lunatic at the branch.
