An Original approach to armed robbery. And they say countries like Bangladesh are more repressed than the USA. Of course, this must have been an interesting day for the sketch artist down at the police station.

Arrgh! Yes, everyone who does something bad and scary is a terrorist. After all, isn't a terrorist just someone who causes fear?

Oh wait, no, not quite... umm... nevermind...

Strip-searches will likely uncover evidence of terrorism.
