I feel sorry for them but at the same time I don’t. If you risk it by not using the bank then you did it to yourself.

Yep, regardless of the risk because they still don't trust American banks..and/or it's way to hide assets so they don't lose their public benefits...pai d by tax dollars.

Those Hmong gangs and other thieves will do their homework i.e., gathering information and then strike those Hmong families when the time comes..

Terrible.

In many cases, I'm speculate an almost sure that it's a "lose lips sinks ships" situation.

Back then, lots of Hmong folks were on welfare and to put their cash in the bank means no more welfare. They scraped and saved for years to get it wiped out is a sad situation. I’m surprised that I never heard any getting killed whether robbers or victims.

Yep, I used to work in the Social Services field so there are assets limit for certain public resources like "welfare"..
