Open The States Rally in City Hall Park, New York.
Governor Cuomo ordered us to leave the park. We were ushered out by NYPD while being told we would be arrested if we did not leave. They then proceeded to shut the gates to the park and lock them.
As we marched around the park on the sidewalk, we were followed by NYPD who continued to tell us that we had to disperse because we were breaking the law. [I apologize for the jumpy video, but it's the sound of the NYPD ordering us to leave that counts.]

Petty tyranny
oh no!
what is it going to take for us to have our constitutional rights back?!?
Escalation unfortunately.
Megaphones-"Gathering are Unlawful" What a PIG
unlawful?
lie
this is just the beginning.....
if all it takes is a threat of jail we dont have a chance
Well, some of us have jobs to protect, lol. If I didn't have anything to lose, I'd let them arrest me, fine me, and let me go. But, I work for the City of NY! That won't go over well on my job.
I think that that is our problem. We are law-abiding citizens who don't want trouble, and they know it. If we were thugs, gang members, or some left-wing group, they wouldn't bother us.
yes
Hey New York. Your mayor and governor walk all over the Constitution like Pelosi tears up an SOU.
