I was at a customer in Oak Park, MI. Went out to a Coney Island on 8mile to pick up an order, all bulletproof glass in there. This was at least 15 years ago. I think it's worse now.

I always thought that if I had to resort to armed robbery, I'd do it at a business that was all cash and was unlikely to have heavy security. Looks like someone already thought of that.

My karate instructor who is a former police officer routinely says:
You know what the difference is between knocking over a party store and armored car? None, they are both felonies with the same jail time.

Why risk it for a couple hundred dollars (people here use credit/debit cards all the time)?
Go big, plan well, then retire, instead of knocking over the same things again and again.

I was watching a Parts Unknown with Anthony Bourdain. He was in Detroit and he met a local guy to get BBQ. They ordered through a bulletproof setup just like that one.

15 minutes later, as Bourdain and his friend waited on the street, sitting on turned over milk crates in front of a burned out building, the old man owner of the BBQ joint brought out the food and they talked. Bourdain asked him when they put up the bulletproof glass over the counter and register. The old man replied, "I put it up 10 years ago. My daughters put the ones up over the windows and the doors 5 years ago."

The resignation in the old man's voice was disheartening.
