Protesters arrested in anti-Wall Street rally

Dozens of people have been arrested in New York after police shut down a protest against Wall Street financial firms.

The organiser of the demonstration, a group calling itself "Occupy Wall Street", used social media to call for peaceful protests against what they describe as corporate greed in America.

They had hoped to turn the sit-in into an American version of Tahrir Square - a reference to the centre of the largely peaceful uprising in Egypt - before they say the police cracked down.

Wall Street is the financial capital for murderers and criminals. Through their usurious banking system, selfishness and sociopathic behavior, they have brought only misery, death and destruction around the world. These Illuminati people are war criminals against humanity.

anybody who works in the insurance dept. of a commercial bank is a low level operative ok. even the head of the department. i-banks are where the money is made. filing taxes is low value work - you pay grunts to do it, like you would pay a gardener to mow your lawn. you couldn't even afford a tax filing service?

i may have been a peasant but i came to the US and fulfilled the american dream. now i watch peasants like you suffer and laugh at your whining.

sorry, but the world turns.

@TheRedCapitalist she doesn't file taxes ya moron, if you read carefully it explains she does that to our families as a favor, filing taxes is not in her job description. She's not a low level grunt for her Insurance department either, but why even bother explaining it if anything I say you will put down, because you are royalty supposedly. Lastly, you are from China, without peasants like you, there would no China, bunch of fucken peasants is what your country is. no denying that. You suck.

#1 your cousin works for a COMMERCIAL bank - sorry, those who work for commercial banks are peasants too, only those who work for i-banks are royalty

#2 your cousin is probably a low level grunt who gets kicked around - sorry, peasant - filing taxes is a low value task if you even understand what that is

having said that, i derive a lot of pleasure in putting down peasants - however, given that your breed is extremely violent, i'm not about to do so in real life. so i'm here :)

@TheRedCapitalist . I highly doubt that someone who works for the banks, such as you claim you do, has spare time to come to YouTube to make dumb comments. My cousin works for Bank Of Montreal, as an investor, and she's so busy with work it took her 8 months to file our families' income taxes that she files for us as a favour. So suck it bitch... enjoy working as a bank teller, 'cause they're the only ones that work in a bank that have spare time to come to YouTube and shoot the shit.

It's funny how these people yell about putting people back to work. In the Washington, D.C. area droves of working class whites were put out of work by illegal alien latinos. The illegals.cost the area a fortune in extra police, day care for teenage unwed mothers, and extra ESOL services. Not to mention the unemployment they caused whites who were displaced. These occupiers didn't protest that. They sided with the illegals and the corporations hiring them, and called the poor whites "racists."
