See how going to the dark side "converts" ordinary folks into their alter-ego? Gotta be one of those Kool-Aid Glock lovers. ::)

The Empire Strikes Bank: Armed robber dressed as Darth Vader demands cash in daring raid
Last updated at 4:21 PM on 23rd July 2010
When a six-foot man strode into a Long Island bank yesterday dressed as sci-fi super villain Darth Vader, customers and staff thought it was a joke.

But they soon realized how serious the man was when he produced a handgun (likely a Glock) and demanded cash.
Police in New York are now trying to trace the phantom menace, who stuffed cash into a bag and disappeared.
The man entered the Chase Bank in East Setauket around 11:30am, wearing the distinctive Darth Vader mask, a long black cloak and - slightly out of character - camouflage combat trousers.
One customer thought the outfit was so funny that he started joking with the dark lord as he tried to pull off his heist.
As he left the robber punched another customer who tried to stop him.

This was not me, but I did just join the dark side with the purchase of a G35. Needed something with more punch that a 9mm and it was barely used for $450 and couldn't pass it up.
Since the first step is admitting the problem, here goes.....My name is Paraguy and I shoot a Tupperware gun.

I was wondering who was gonna be the first to post this ;)
*Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side
*And now we will discuss the location of your secret rebel base
*I bet he just needed the money to get his light sabre out of pawn
*Jedi mind trick on the teller would have worked better and would have avoided the "armed" robbery charge.

Luke, I am your robber

It's a SIG. You can clearly see the hammer.... He's not TRULY a member of the Dark side! ;D

"You are part of a financial alliance and a traitor....take her away!!"

Doesn't mean he can't blame Glock any way. ;D

"Comb the desert!"
Exit Question: Did he really need to wear the cape?

I thought the camo pants and boots were an accentuating accessory.
