Occupy Oakland makes $20K deposit at Wells Fargo
San Francisco Examiner ^ | 11/08/11 | Sarah Gantz

Last week, one or more Occupy Oakland protesters smashed the windows of a Wells Fargo branch.

This week, the group’s general assembly agreed — in a near-unanimous vote Monday — to temporarily place $20,000 of the group’s money in an account at the country’s fourth-largest bank holding company, Wells Fargo Bank.

Wells Fargo spokesman Ruben Pulido went out of his way on Monday to notify reporters about this development via email. “If this report is true,” he wrote, “it demonstrates that even Occupy Oakland understands — firsthand — the value and service that Wells Fargo provides its customers. Wells Fargo welcomes the 100 percent of Americans to allow us to help them meet their financial needs.”

Stories like this make me wonder how they can wake up in the morning and look at themselves in the reflection of the puddle of urine they slept in.

OWS is today's Ku Klux Klan.

The terrorist wing of the Democrat Party.

So in this case....Wells Fargo is not a “evil bank”?

This is rather comical....Occupy is mostly about evil Wall Street and evil banks.
