Original Note:
Protestors were not arrested for protesting, they were arrested because they attempted to block the entrance to the building, which is illegal. Despite the image of one person in a lab coat, this was not a protest by scientists, but was organized by multiple groups. https://westchester.news12.com/nypd-23-arrests-in-1st-of-4-days-of-climate-protests-at-citi-hq-on-wall-street https://www.nyclu.org/resources/know-your-rights/your-rights-demonstrating-new-york-city#:~:text=Demonstrations%2C%20Marches%2C%20and%20Rallies%20on%20a%20Public%20Sidewalk&text=You%20cannot%20block%20building%20entrances,people%20in%20vehicles%20in%20traffic. https://nypost.com/2024/06/10/us-news/climate-activists-try-to-blockade-nyc-citi-bank-hq-in-summer-of-heat-on-wall-street/
