You'll likely recall the string of protests here in Charlotte leading up to Bank of America's annual shareholder meeting last May. Well, it appears that protest season could be starting up again.

Last year, activist groups promised a "spring of discontent" ahead of the annual May meeting. Nothing like that has been discussed so far this year, though Charlotte typically hosts a number of protesters each year for Bank of America's meeting.
The protests, however, may be a little more muted this year since Bank of America's stock has risen more than 60 percent since the last shareholder meeting. Fury over the bank's proposed $5 debit card fee also appears to have died down since then.

And this is news because? So the usual bunch of useful idiots put on the clown shoes and the only people that care are the Andrew's of the world.
Skippy, people who commute uptown might be interested in knowing whether protesters will be returning.
bunch of losers... those people need to get a freaking life.. or a job
Yes, commuters and employees might be interested in knowing whether protesters return. However, I'm pretty sure this entire article says "maybe", "could", and "might". So they protested last year, but things are better, and no one has mentioned anything, so who really knows...this is not journalism, this is speculation.
Hell no, things are never better with those trashy banks. Those executives will burn in hell fire for what they are doing.
