Monday Jan. 16, 2012After a Martin Luther King Jr. Day observance at Burlington’s City Hall Contois Auditorium Monday, about a dozen demonstrators marched on the TD Bank branch just down the street to protest the bank’s opening on the holiday. The marchers briefly gathered in front of the bank, then tried to enter. Moments after the group arrived, Patrick Brown, director of the Burlington Multicultural Resource Center, said he would hand leaflets to bank tellers protesting the bank’s hours Monday. The leaflet read: “Dear TD Bank, you are defying the King holiday. Shame, Shame, Shame. This is a racist act. Shame, Shame, Shame. [ link to www.burlingtonfreepress.com]  Quoting: TXGal4Truth unbelievable. I'm glad I live and work in a community that is 97% white. I have my office open today and in fact I've had a rather busy day. I would have lost thousands of dollars closing today. Screw that. It's ridiculous. I wonder if they would call us racists down here in South Texas for our kids going to school on this day. When my hubby first moved down from Brooklyn he was surprised to learn that the schools here don't give the kids the day off.
