The Making of a MoveOn.org Video

About 30 people in Providence, RI protested outside a Bank of America branch as part of MoveOn.org’s Tax Day: Make Them Pay national protest.

The video below shows two of the protesters accompanied by someone taking video entering the bank to present a “tax bill” to BofA. 

I haven’t been able to find the video taken by the woman accompanying the protesters, but I’m sure it must make this look like a dramatic encounter.  (If you can find it, send me the link.)  In reality it was laughable and pathetic. 

Note that towards the end (2:15), when the protesters were asked to leave, the woman can be heard telling the bank guard not to touch her, or it would be a “battery.”  She knows her rights!
