Police Draw Batons on Bank Bailout protestors

category national | anti-capitalism | feature author Wednesday May 12, 2010 17:24author by Paula Geraghtyauthor email mspgeraghty at yahoo dot ie Report this post to the editors

This is a short video from when the first forty or so went to the gates to be joined shortly by hundreds more.
