Many were holding signs that said \u201cKeep your laws off my body,\u201d and \u201cNo uterus, no opinion,\u201d while shouting chants like \u201cMy body, my choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the protest, the crowd marched up 6th Avenue. About two dozen people were arrested for blocking traffic at 42nd where they stopped and sat on the floor in defiance of cars attempting to drive.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"516\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.20.05-PM.png?w=1024\" alt=\"NYPD\" class=\"wp-image-22815348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.20.05-PM.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.20.05-PM.png 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.20.05-PM.png?w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>NYPD arrives to the scene to investigate what is h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ening. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">NY Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.05.31-PM.png?w=1024\" alt=\"Washington square fireworks\" class=\"wp-image-22815260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.05.31-PM.png 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-26-at-10.05.31-PM.png?w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>People began running mistaking fireworks for gunshots. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">NY Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/062622panic1WCL.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Washington Square Panic\" class=\"wp-image-22815471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/062622panic1WCL.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/062622panic1WCL.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/062622panic1WCL.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/062622panic1WCL.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A cop on the scene at Washington Square Park.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">William C.
