Protestors stripped nude naked on Wall Street to protest naked corporate greed



I think we should have a lot of these types of protests. Maybe there should be naked protest over high New York taxes? Bring in Pamela Anderson for that one.



New York Post

Wall Street hasn't seen cojones this big since Gordon Gekko.

A horde of 50 "actors" -- mostly disguised as dapper day traders -- suddenly stripped off their clothes and frolicked around Wall Street early yesterday morning in a bizarre protest of corporate greed.

Three of the bare-bottomed bozos -- initially dressed as a CEO, dog walker and janitor -- were collared by cops.

Christine Coleman, 22, of Queens, Eric Anderson, 31, and Aaron Mattocks, of Brooklyn, were charged with disorderly conduct and exposure for showing off their dangling commodities
Each was released with a desk summons.

But their cohorts got away scot-free in the stunt, which had been six months in the making.

The 50 actors doffed their duds at about 7 a.m. as part of a performance piece by artist Zefrey Throwell titled "Ocularpation: Wall Street."

They had descended on the Financial District playing the roles of street sweepers and secretaries. Within four minutes of baring it all, everyone dressed and disappeared into the bustling crowd.
"I saw a lady standing in front of a building and she was buck naked!" said Gamal Abouelkhair, 54, a coffee-cart owner.

The Alaskan-born Throwell, a recent transplant to New York, planned the stunt as a way to knock the buttoned-up Wall Street culture down a notch.
