Apparently, my neighborhood is not a good place

to hide out if you are a bank robber. You'll get caught.

CN: A dude wanted in 13 states for 25 bank robberies was found and arrested in my neighborhood this afternoon. There was a six hour standoff with the FBI and State Police and everything.

And it was right by a middle school, which I'm sure was terrifying for those kids' parents.

Geez, 25 robberies and they just now caught him??

Wow - that's crazy.  And of course the school would be locked down so you can't even get your kid to take them away from the craziness.  I hate robbers.......how are you going to steal what people work hard for?  If you worked hard for your own stuff as hard as you work to steal the stuff you'd be well off!  DUH!

Did you hear about those FBI raids in Boston back in May?

Around the corner from me!  And, oddly enough, also across the street from a middle school.  Maybe there is something to those "lock-down" drills. 

THAT'S NUTS!

We just watched Public Enemies on Netflix. This reminds me of that.

Yeah I was wondering the same thing. WTF FBI?

And Stacks, the school had been on lockdown since 11 this morning. Thank god they got the guy at a reasonable hour or those kids could've been there for God knows how long.
