Des Plaines
'Elmer Fudd Bandit' Strikes Again
A serial bank robber who tried to rob a bank in Des Plaines has struck again, the FBI stated.
A TCF Bank branch located at 7342 W. Foster Ave. in Chicago was robbed Monday afternoon. The man is suspected of robbing several banks in the Chicago area in October and trying to rob the on Oct. 14.
The robbery is similar to the Oct. 14 attempted robbery in Des Plaines. In that incident, "The man approached the shift supervisor at the TCF Bank, and said, “Give me all your money or I’ll blow your head off.” He then showed the bank worker a notepad, which stated, according to police, “Give me all your money.”
On all of these occasions, the robber has worn a plaid flannel shirt, and in his most recent robberies, he has also worn a ballcap, which has led agents to refer to him as the 'Elmer Fudd Bandit,' the FBI stated.
Facts that I see are 1. Expanding abortions on his very first day in office. 2. Refusing to shutdown Planned Parenthood, even when Lila Rose videotaped them giving advice on how to give abortions to 14year old girls without parental consent. 3. Lying during the debate by saying that Planned Parenthood provides important preventative healthcare such as mammograms, when not a single Planned Parenthood facility has a single mammogram machine. 4. Forcing all employers to provide benefits and drugs that are contrary to their religious affiliation 5. Not permitting even a moment of silence in schools, SILENCE, not even prayer just the opportunity for those that wish to pray 6. Putting the country on a path to financial ruin with $4 trillion dollars of long term debt, when Christians are strictly told to maintain fiscal moderation

Peace Out
Winnetka...please re-read my post because I believe we are arguing the same points. Marigold....Please STOP YELLING and name calling. I hope you don't pray with that same mouth. John Robinson....this is exactly what I am talking about. Your points are NOT facts but made up statements or twisted truths to justify hating. I could refute each one of your points with FACTUAL evidence and completely embarrass you, but that would take time that I don't want to spend educating you. Regardless, even if people like you were faced with the truth, you would make up another lie to deny it. Go ahead, believe your own fantasies. It only once again proves to me and others that attempting to engage in civil discourse with someone not versed in reality is all but impossible. May I suggest that in the future if you want to win an argument or even attempt to give the impression that you know what you are talking about, do some research. Try fact checking your claims before you boldly make a statement then can be completely squashed by a fifth grader. Maybe it's time that voters are required to take some type of test before they vote so the completely deranged ones can be weeded out. Obama not permitting silence in schools...bahahahahaha
