Reader Quinn sent us a photograph (bigger shot here) of some protesters in lower Manhattan and writes, "There was an anti-bailout protest down by the Bull south of Wall Street. Two professional climbers went all the way to the top of the flag poles and rigged an American flag with the word 'Foreclosed?' on it. Then the NYPD Emergency Services came to take it down… they’re in the middle of that now. The protest did not seem to deter the tourists, who continued to take snapshots of their loved ones in front of the Bull." (The Gothamist Newsmap refers to the protesters as EDP Protesters--hope they aren't being Tased.)
