Mayor De Blasio insists "the law is the law" (for main street, not wall street anyway...) and that the NYPD would continue to strictly enforce petty laws like the ones that led to this pregnant woman’s encounter, Eric Garner's death, and Jahmiel Cuffee's encounter with police. The city's police commissioner, Bill Bratton, added that respecting police and correcting your behavior when they engage you is what democracy’s all about.

A seven-months pregnant woman released photos on Monday that she said show an NYPD cop putting her in a chokehold after officers accused her and her family of illegally grilling on the sidewalk.
The images, pulled from a cell phone video of the incident, shows what appears to be an officer with his arm around the throat of Rosan Miller, 27, as he tried to place her under arrest.
