That’s Not Write
Thursday, October 1st, 2009 • Filed under Banks, Robberies
People who aren’t smart enough to know the difference between breaking and following the law probably didn’t have much schooling, but at least some of them were smart enough to grasp concepts beyond a 3rd grade level.
A bank robbery attempt was foiled because the teller couldn’t read the robber’s sloppy note, according to the AP.
The teller actually handed the note back to the robber so he could rewrite it. It must have been on one of those lined sheets of paper that teachers use to teach their student cursive handwriting.
As the robber rewrote his note, the teller stepped back and activated a silent alarm. Police arrested him and sentenced him to write “I will not rob banks” 1,000 times on a large blackboard.

Heh, that’s hilarious. This is the first article that’s made me laugh. I give kudos to anyone who can find something funnier than this.
First of all, the guy Wrote out his demands for the bank clerk…Secondly he’s clearly illiterate…and can’t write legible words…That just takes the fun out of cracking down on the law… It’s like arresting the crazy down the street for not knowing his shoes were on the wrong feet…that’s just funny.
‘I will not rob banks, I will not rob banks..x1000′ Lol.

Heres a funnier one.
A man wrote a robbery note on the back of a bank deposit slip and handed it to the clerk. The clerk noticed that it was written on the back of deposit slip for another bank across the street and told the man that they could not accept it. THE GUY ACTUALLY LEFT!!!!! The clerk called the police and they caught the guy across the street in the other bank……..waiting in line!!
I love stupid people.

pretty good-got a better one. this genius in florida wrote a demand note on the back of an envelope. the dummy got caught because he left the envelope behind. on the other side-his name,address and the name of his probation officer

theres a funnier one with a guy who tried to rob a store but was told that all the money was in the vault, and the manager, who had just left, had the only key. the robber gave the teller his cell phone number and told him to call when th emanager got back. a couple hours later the guy called, the robber went back, and he got arrested.
