rock out my sisters!!! from the KCBS web site...
...SNIP>As they arrived, Bank of America closed and locked its doors, to the surprise and delight of the elderly protestors, who said that they had no intention of storming the bank.The women waved signs, but didn’t march or chant, with one woman on supplemental oxygen adding that the group was too old for that.<SNIP.....
so how dangerous where these Wild Old Women that a branch mgr had to lock their doors....and how many tums/rolaids/maloxx got chewed up and swallowed by BOAs mgrs.....
