At the Rally to Stop Police Brutality

Yesterday marked the 16th Annual National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality ... the peaceful rally/protest started at Union Square ... Bobby Williams picked up the route in Tompkins Square Park... then down East Eighth Street ... Avenue C and Avenue D... We don't have an exact number of people who were marching ... almost seemed as if there were equal numbers of the NYPD ...

    Great photos and documentation by Bobby. Glad there was a nice turn out and things stayed peaceful.

    I found the police presence really creepy--like a counter-protest..."so you want to protest against us? you can do that, but we will still contain you, and we still have ultimate power over you."

    What's with the police in this town?
