Dozens of demonstrators gathered for what was dubbed the ‘Rally for Freedom’ in Brooklyn, New York. Sunday’s event was one of the latest protests against Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s coronavirus restrictions.
A group could even be seen burning a large pile of face masks. Tensions broke out after anti-lockdown demonstrators were met by Antifa counter protestors.

“So, this is not what you think it is,” stated protest Cara Castronuova. “We are anti-vaccine, we are anti-tyrannical government, okay? And we are anti-people telling us what to do with our lives.”
The ‘Rally for Freedom’ followed several other protests across the city against Cuomo’s restrictions.
