      Allow me to also add – thankfully this simian wasn’t wearing a hoodie. According to that ‘ricansheeny Geraldo, hoodies are problems.

    Message to tellers: when a brother comes in, hit the panic button and start screaming.

      Send the shine
      To the end of the line.

    • LYNDIA

      WHEN A BROTHER COMES IN HE USUALLY HAS MORE MONEY IN THE BANK THAN YOU DO. ALSO, DO YOU SAY THAT THENA HONKEY ROBS A BANK? DO YOU?

      • LYNDIA

        I MAKES MY MUNNY ON MY BACK OR ON MY NEES.

      • Just Axin

        Lyndia- Lots of honkeys rob banks. If the brother in the bank has more $ than me, it’s usually from ill-gotten gains.

    These previous posters would most likely,feel very comfortable as law enforcers in the Sanford community in Florida!

      You’re godd@ mn right!!! More people have top stand uo for what’s right & WHITE!!! Judging by your name, you should be proud that the shooter in FL was a member of your species.

      • LYNDIA

        STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WHITE!! THAT IS WHY YOU AND YOUR KIND ARE HATED EVERYWHERE THEY GO.

    • Just Axin

      Guillermo, you idiot. You think these savages would commit the crimes they enjoy with the threat of dying a real possibility? I’ll put it in terms you can understand. Would Guillermo drive safely and play by the rules if he wasn’t an illegal alien trying not to alarm the authorities?

  • tom sharp

    Get that guy from Florida up here. He can teach you to shoot when you don’t see a weapon, but fear for your life! Believe me, that would cut down the robby rate up there!

  • MARY

    anpther reason to tell that bum you elected mayor,we need to hire more cops.

  • Malcom

    I used to live in that area back in the 70′s. Alot has changed since then. Less Whites now and more crime. Looks like its that way everywhere. When Whites started embracing liberalims ,solcialism and multi culturalism the race was doomed. Thank a liberal and democrat for today’s crime.

  • LYNDIA

    WHITE PEEPULS PUT MUNNY IN DEM BANKS AND BLACK PEEPULS TAKES IT OUT.

  • observer

    why don`t banks hire armed off duty police officers as security,surely a robber
    will think twice before entering then,or maybe the banks aren`t interested in security so the insurance claim can be inflated after a robbery maybe Pam Zekman needs to look into this!

  • x po

    Immediately after a bank robbery the autorites should go to area casino`s looking for the bad!!!!!

  • James

    this negro doesn’t even wear a disguise. I guess it’s because they all look alike!
