Chappell Hill Bank encourages Second Amendment. ( Late Edit - By the way, this is in Texas ) http://www.brenhambanner.com/articles/2010/08/19/news/news03.txt CHAPPELL HILL — Any would-be robbers looking to walk into the bank here had best think twice.
There’s a new sign in town. Chappell Hill Bank president Edward Smith: “We had the sign on the window, the red circle with the pistol inside and a line through it. And I started thinking, ‘We’ve got this no gun sign up and the guy (robber) can come in and do what he wants.
“But if you’ve got a policy allowing handguns, he won’t know how many people are going to be in here carrying a concealed weapon. There may be some little old lady who’s mad at the government, and she’d love to use it,” “I haven’t gotten any from Chicago or California, which doesn’t surprise me,” Smith said with a laugh. “We did get a real nice e-mail from an 88-year-old World War II veteran who said it’s about time somebody stood up in this country.” The policy change has also brought Chappell Hill Bank a handful of new customers and comments from people outside Washington County that they’d bank there if they lived here, said Smith.
“I tell them that we’re a full-service bank and we’re on the Internet. They can bank online,” he said
