Video From Inside Citibank Branch Shows Arrested Protesters Refusing To Leave

Video from inside the Citibank where 23 Occupy Wall Street protestors were arrested appears to show demonstrators yelling at bank employees and ignoring warnings by security to take their protests outside.

“We were asked to leave by management, but chose to keep on talking,” Elana Carroll told Gawker‘s Max Read. “Our talk was slowing down and coming to a close. We had been inside probably between 10 and 20 minutes total when suddenly we heard “doors are being locked now!” from one of the men who’d been standing in the doorway.”

It seems these people have always been around. In the 1800s they were called anarchists. I think anarchists and communists were basically the same thing.

I think these current protestors are also anarchists.

“We were asked to leave by management, but chose to keep on talking, commit defiant trespass, instead.

Enjoy the county lockup, ya dumb broad.

My friend and dentist just finished sending one of his daughters to Florida State for 4 years. Spent 125,000 sending his darling to get a degree in physical therapy where sh’ll make about 18,000 a year.
Said he could have sent the bimbo to the local community college for about 15,000 for the same job.

“and when I turn 21 I'm going to be personally responsible for” and “I'm going to have to pay $1600 a month and that's not fair”.
“We want an education that's fully funded”.

Yeah, well, I want a free McMansion, new car and plenty of walkin around money without having to work. Boo Hoo.

Where are the biggest Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac buildings that can be occupied by malcontents who have enough sincerity to raise havoc with a bank that hasn’t paid back the billions stolen from the American people?

Occupy Congress!

I think anarchists claim to believe in no government; yet seems the demands they make would require 100% government control

LOL too funny, sign here go and party until the bill is due. Go see Obama about why he was worried about Health Cost and not a faster rising cost the higher education.

Also theses people claimed Citi promised them a job if they went to college?

Smart parents to make their daughter get a Life insurance policy in case she dies.

You would assume that kids who went to college were smart, but I am not getting that message.

When they borrowed the $125,000 dollars they knew they were supposed to pay it back. No one forced them to borrow the money.Now because the economy sucks they believe we should forget that debt.

No one is forgiving my debt, or paying for my heating bill, or buying me a new car.

What are they crying about, they will not be placed in jail if they don’t pay the money back.We do not have debtor’s prisons in this country.

My Mom & Dad couldn’t afford to send me to college, I joined the military, got out and got a job. It paid $1.35 cents an hour, I worked there until I found a better job, then an even better job.That’s America. Not lying around in front of bank building crying over money you legitimately owe for.

My daughter wants to be a Physical Therapist. You MUST have a B.S. to be on the lowest level. You then start in a hospital where they have tuition reimbursement to get a Masters and real pay.

Mine will do community college and then local college. No way will I pay that amount.

Son just graduated College.
Stayed home for two years at Junior and two more at a senior college.
Enrolled him at birth in the state prepaid college program and it cost about 36,000 for a business major and music minor.
Got a job and just this week he got his OWN insurance. Oh My!
Had he gone off to U.Florida or some place away from home right off he’d have failed out like most of his friends that went that route.

These morons are upset at the bank for lending them money? They didn’t realize that a loan means they actually have to pay the money back?
