Sitting at a red light this morning, I noticed something shiny glaring in my eyes. On closer inspection, I come to find out that it is a GUN!

I freak out, but then realize it is a Brinks Security Officer holding the weapon, as I now see him back his partner holding the bag of money, following him into the bank.
I get the green light and haul tail out of there, but it got me thinking, is this what the world has come to? Is it now a vital componet to have a lookout man holding a loaded gun so that the transaction of money is safe?
Please let me know your opinion because I was freaked out this morning.
thanks,
