So you don't even need to show a weapon now to rob a bank? You can just walk in and demand money and they'll give it to you, seems ridiculous to me.

Kind of sounds like the government! Robs you by taxing you into the poorhouse and they never show a weapon either!!!

I'm sure the reason he just walked in and demanded money is he must be part of the 47%er's. That what they are used to, just demand it and you will get it!

The Tribune said it was Fifth-Third Bank (source: http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-03-21/news/chi-fbi-searches-for-man-who-robbed-south-side-bank-20130321_1_fbi-searches-southwest-side-bank-ashburn-neighborhood). So then I did a Google Maps search of nearby banks to the address given, and none match precisely (my search: http://i.imgur.com/jarC0pX.jpg). Thoughts?
