According to the FBI, most modern-day bank robberies are "unsophisticated and unprofessional crimes," committed by young male repeat offenders who apparently don't know the first thing about their business. For instance it is reported that in spite of the widespread use of surveillance cameras, 76 percent of bank robbers use no disguise, 86 percent never study the bank before robbing it, and 95 percent make no long-range plans for concealing the loot.

LOL, you really have to think how stupid these people are. In addition as to the stat's of the FBI. Why rob a bank, the best take is a couple of thousand dollars. Match that against it being a FEDERAL crime...LOL...
