[QUOTE="clembo, post: 348036, member: 8033"][b]T shirts and armed robbery[/b] Negative comments? Not really. Sarcastic definitely but perhaps you should take them to heart. It's better than a bullet. Now I happen to live very close to a high crime area so, like others, I may be a bit jaded. I'll admit that freely but isn't it better safe than sorry? Criminals travel. I used to work for a contract mail hauler. Delivered from Gary, IN to Indianapolis. Used to stop at an all night gas station in Lebanon, IN for a sandwich on the way back. About 3 am when I'd get there. Off the beaten path, no security glass or anything like that. Just a lone cashier. Usually a woman. A tragedy waiting to happen. Have had a few friends robbed at gunpoint while I was in the gas station industry. Took over a store where the assistant manager was shot and killed for $127. It happens man and advertising it isn't very wise in my opinion. Had a friend in Iowa that used to hit the quad cities area for coins. At one point there was a lot going on there he told me. Criminals driving down I-80 from Chicago looking for easy targets. Does this happen in "Mayberry"? Not often but it DOES happen. I wouldn't wear a shirt like that if you paid me to. It only takes ONE bad experience so why tempt it?[/QUOTE]
