My girlfriend was just arrested for trying to go in chase bank and close her checking account. She was put on the ground by NYPD and treated like a piece of shit. Is this what our country has come too? Where is our freedom we cant even close a checking account. They said she was trepassing and charged her for resisting arrest.
That which condensed out of thin air can evaporate into thin air. This applies not just to morning dew on the grass but also to the crux of the confidence game flying around the world at electronic and photonic speeds in coherent waves.
What's the rest of the story ? Was she with a group of people that stormed into the bank ? With a group of people standing outside of the bank holding up signs and shouting?
This is America's Tian An men. So much for freedom
IF all you were doing is closing your account you sue the shit out of them and the cops . That is IF . IF you were in there starting trouble and making a scene then screw you.I wasnt there but I think shutting down accounts at theese banks should be the #1 step and everyone needs to gather up people to do this. IF your story is true spread it EVERYWHERE and maybe it will get others against this evil bank
Just withraw all funds from the account. With a zero balance it is as good as closed.
Fascism.
I was there when it happened we were told to leave by chase staff after about 8 of us wanted to close accounts. Next police that were outside rushed building and started arresting people. One guy was beat with a baton because he resisted.
So everyone was standing in a single file line and being quiet and civil; then the cops showed up and started arresting people?
Does'nt sound like the whole story is here.
We are getting run over by police. Were not being violent but the police can do what they want such as beating our people.
Capture it on video and post it on You Tube. The truth will become apparent and go viral.
Did you leave out the part where she might have threatened people or just acted like a complete lunatic?
Is that the whole story? she just went into the branch and asked to close her account and the police were called? What else was going on?
Yes this one needs to go to court.
Hold strong, fight the fight. Sue the Police department for Harassment, unjust arrest, so on.
Really?? Any other reports pertaining to this?
Tell her to NOT talk to police about anything. Tell her to not waive time and to get a jury trial. Get an attorney. Talking to police and investigators will get you know where.
Police are doing arrests and releases... file complaints of rights violations with NYPD
How was it trespassing? Are there others at the bank protesting?
