1. Not a single banker thrown in jail for stealing trillions by committing fraud..
but many bank customers thrown in jail for attempting to lawfully move their own money.

USA!

3. well, THAT was an overreaction
As far as I could see or hear, she didn't do or even say anything that would justify her being removed or manhandled at all, let alone like that. Thank goodness for video cameras and YouTube.

8. She seemed like a customer in the wrong place at the wrong time. Over reaction indeed.

4. How can we donate money to their defense fund? that woman should not have been arrested.
I say we light up Citibanks phone lines to express our outrage!

14. Here's an explanation for that.
Edited on Sat Oct-15-11 09:12 PM by Kaleko
One of the comments @ YouTube:

"No, stop being paranoid. Youtube does several things to prevent gaming of statistics (because faking the view count can blast a video to the front page). The number of views on this video incremented too fast and made it look suspicious to the algorithm, so it froze it. It will eventually jump to the correct number."
~ TheOriginalTkTech

I have seen it before, the view counter for some other video that was going viral at the time finally jumped - many hours later.

19. It sure is a drag to see that counter stuck at an impossible low.
But all together we'll keep the fire burning, mate. :hi:

10. Just about to post this myself. Can't believe the way they grad the woman--a Citibank customer
and basically kidnap her. Who was that man in the sweatshirt and what authority did he have to do so?

18. Make than an ex-Citi customer
Edited on Sat Oct-15-11 09:48 PM by Uber DUer
she closed the account successfully and went outside, only to be pulled back by those thugs in blue.

The NYPD is going to face a major lawsuit from that woman, and deservedly so. The City of New York will have to settle a lot of lawsuitS, and Bloomberg better be ready to answer for his stupidity and honestly, should personally pay for each of the settled lawsuits because of his inept management of the NYPD.
