RAN Die-In To Protest Merrill Lynch, TXU and Dirty Energy

Boston environmental and human rights advocates in collaboration with the Rainforest Action Network (RAN) staged a dramatic "die-in" in from of the Merrill Lynch office downtown at One Financial Center. Activists fell to the ground crying black tears and spitting up pollution sludge, while "medics" dressed in hazmat suits and masks attempted to save their lives. Other demonstrators, also in hazmat suits, were barred from entering the building as they attempted to deliver a letter demanding Merrill Lynch's Boston branch help stop the bank's financing of TXU's dirty energy plan.

Lame. Global Warming is a myth and coal plants create jobs. I assume you're okay with the country not having enough power and also no big deal putting people out of jobs. What I come to expect from young liberal minded foolish kids who don't do research.
