Demonstrators Demand Banksters Do Jail Time!

by Eunice and Rae
Demonstrators at the Wells Fargo Shareholders Meeting in San Francisco on April 27 said bankers broke laws, lack ethics and should do jail time. The Raging Grannies/A New Way Forward street theater showed it the way many want to see it.

Raging Grannies Action League of San Francisco and A New Way Forward presented a street theater skit entitled:
Bankers Did the Crimes, They Should Do the Time!

Corporate media also caught up with the Grannies in front of Wells Fargo on California St. in the downtown financial district. Reuters and Getty Images photos are making their way into mainstream news sources as financial reform legislation is being discussed on Capitol Hill this week.
