“They [the plaintiffs’ lawyers] know that the city will only throw money at these radical groups and that might amount to them as a payday — and it sure did, or it sure will,” he continued. “So it is absolutely I think gut-wrenching that they continue to do this.” The incident came after activists had taunted the NYPD with a flyer of a burning cop vehicle and egged on fellow demonstrators to violate the newly imposed curfew.“The protesters were intent on provoking mayhem and grinding the city to a halt. There were several days of violent demonstrations. I this particular case, they violated a curfew that Mayor [Bill] de Blasio put in for two nights,” he said.“The police were forced to take aggressive action and make arrests.
“If you remember, Mayor de Blasio said [to police] ‘go easy.’ [Chuckles] He didn’t tell that to the demonstrators. He didn’t tell that to the people who injured over 1,000 cops,” Kelly said.
