Making Wall St. Pay Protest

A group of residents from Columbia, TN and Hohenwald, TN gathered Sat. Nov. 5,2011 for a Making Wall St. Pay Protest. The protesters stood off the property of a Bank Of America, held signs passed out flyers and waved to customers and oncoming traffic. Folks passing by honked their horns, gave thumbs up, and requested fliers enthusiastically. The protest was peaceful and uneventful until a customer finishing up business with the bank and still in the parking lot requested a flyer from a protester. The protester handed the customer a flyer, said a few words and walked back to where the other protesters were gathered. Minutes later an officer from the Columbia, Police Dept. arrived and nicely advised me and other protesters that we were not allowed on the property of Bank of America. He then requested to speak with the organizer of the event Cheryl B. and I pointed her out to him. According to Cheryl B. the officer told her the same thing but also stated that Bank of America did not want protesters on their property. The protesters resumed protesting after the officer left.The group was small and organizer Cheryl B. was fine with that expecting the numbers to grow with each event. She and the group of protesters were excited and invigorated by the positive feedback received. The next event planned: We Are The 99% Event. Sat. Nov 19, 2011 10:30AM 1404 S. James Campbell Blvd. And Hatcher Lane In Front of Bank of America Columbia, TN 38401. Here is a link to sign up for the event.http://civic.moveon.org/event/events/attendees/index.html?event_id=124033&id=-17336724-97HOWyx

What The Costumes Reveal

Sorry for the bad grammar. Took is not a word, they used us again (the taxpayer) to bail them out. I'm just mad about this. This represents what happened to us, and how they feel about what they did. They could care less about hardworking Americans, as long as they still have a job. I hope all of them were fired, they deserve to walk in our shoes.

What The Costumes Reveal

What more will it take for folks to understand that this is all a joke to them, they have no sympathy, compassion or remorse for what they did. They all should be in jail and locked up, every last one of them. They robbed us, took advantage of us, and laughed the whole time they were doing it. Then they took our money again to bail them out. This is disgusting!
