Vatic Note: Just a reminder of the SPLC and ADL hate and fear mongering yesterday about these very people who were not violence, did not threaten anyone, but were angry. That was the same all over the country and here is a video to show you an example of one such time when SWAT team was called out in anticipation of violence. This video is humorous and highlights the severe level of propoganda these organizations working for the bankers and Zionists are trying to push the fear agenda and its simply not working. Notice the first video is of those on the right, and the second is those on the left. WE ARE UNITED IN THIS FIGHT AND THIS WAR. Right and left together.

What is impressive is even the old lady along with the rest are NOT AFRAID, rather they are damn angry and that is the first step in healing and action.
Angry Americans March on Wall Street
Posted April 30, 2010 published in "Russia Today"

April 30, 2010 -- NEW YORK — Thousands of workers and union leaders marched on Wall Street on Thursday to express their anger over lost jobs, the taxpayer-funded bailout of financial institutions and questionable lending practices by big banks. The largest anti-Wall Street rally since the credit crunch has taken place in New York. Thousands of workers and trade union leaders marched in anger over lost jobs and ruined lives, demanding answers from the source of the trouble - the banks.
The rally was organized by the AFL-CIO and an association of community groups. It included a diverse mixture of union workers, activists, the unemployed, and homeowners threatened by foreclosure.
"These guys are like pirates," said small business owner Karen Casamassima, of New York, who called for "economic patriotism" and held up a sign depicting a jewel encrusted skull with the words, "Financial Terrorists."
The protesters, carrying signs saying "Wall Street Overdrafted Our Economy" and "Reclaim America," rallied at City Hall Park, then marched down to the Merrill Lynch Bull statue demanding good jobs and accountability from banks.
"I think Wall Street is responsible for the collapse of our economy," said Bennett Silverstein, an attorney from Brooklyn who said his savings were depleted by the recession.
Earlier in the day, noisy protesters with signs took over two bank building lobbies on Manhattan's Park Avenue in a prelude to the rally.
More than 100 people entered a midtown building housing JPMorgan Chase offices. They handed a bank executive a letter requesting a meeting with the CEO, and chanted "Bust up! Big banks!" and "People power!"
A half-hour later, they were calmly escorted outside by officers, who remained expressionless as the protesters chanted, "The police need a raise."
They then walked a few blocks up the avenue and crowded into the lobby of the Seagram Building, where Wells Fargo and Wachovia, the bank it merged with in 2008, have offices.
The protesters held up signs reading, "Save Our Jobs" and "Save Our Homes." One included a Great Depression-era photograph. Police arrived on horseback as curious office workers watched the scene unfold from their windows.
"We're here today to stop the corporate greed that is ruining our neighborhoods," said Andrea Goldman, 59, of Springfield, Mass., who's part of a group called Alliance to Develop Power.
Fran Durst, a Wachovia spokeswoman, said the protesters wanted to deliver a letter to the bank, and they did so. She declined further comment on the letter.
The other banks did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, which includes many Wall Street financial institutions, declined to comment.
