Message:: [QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 280702, member: 4552"]Probably depends on your area. For example in this wonderful Chicago area, bank robberies are way, way up lately. Any call conserning the main vault is just not smart at the present time. This could mean you are wondering if the main vault is presently open. It could mean you want to know what is kept there. I know in this area it is just not smart to say the wrong thing at the wrong time in the wrong place. In the downtown area of Chicago there is a very large bank, LaSallle Bank. The building is rather historic looking and the lobby is really fantastic. So I brought my camera and went into the lobby to takd some photos of it all. Note I said the lobby, not in the actual bank. I was immeadiately surrounded by people in and out of uniforms with guns drawn. The camera was opened, film ripped out, alll personal information was written down and I was then escorted out. HMMMM. Trying to hide something? Being a gun collector I also have numerous tie bars in the shape of guns. One day at a Walgreens downtown as I approached the counter the lady at the cash register noticed the tie bar and blurted out "Oh that is a nice gun". Yep, again surrounded by people with real guns. No it pays to be safe rather than sorry. If you worked in a bank around here it is not IF your going to be robbed, it's WHEN.Sorry, I go along with the cautionary bank people.[/QUOTE]
