Department of Homeland Stupidity to Confiscate Safe Deposit Box Contents.

Notepad at Bellaciao reports on a secret Homeland Stupidity program to confiscate safe deposit box contents:

"A family member from Irvine, CA (who's a branch manager at Bank of America) told us two weeks ago that her bank held a "workshop" where the last two days were dedicated to discussing their bank's new security measures. During these last two days, the workshop included members from the Homeland Security Office who instructed them on how to field calls from customers and what they are to tell them in the event of a national disaster. She said they were told how only agents from Homeland Security (during such an event) would be in charge of opening safe deposit boxes and determining what items would be given to bank customers.

"At this point they were told that no weapons, cash, gold, or silver will be allowed to leave the bank - only various paperwork will be given to its owners. After discussing the matter with them at length, she and the other employees were then told not to discuss the subject with anyone."

Bank employees have been told not to talk to about this to customers. Click here to read the rest of notepad's report.

This is hardly surprising, as the Feds went through bank safe deposit boxes back in the 1930s to steal gold from them. Anyone who trusts their valuables to an American bank is ignoring the lessons of history.
