THE 28 GREATEST MOMENTS FROM AN ANGRY NYC PROTEST WHERE COMMUNISM, CAPITALISM, AND CRAZY ALL MET

We could have probably picked the top 100 moments from the video you’re about to see, but let’s be honest: we all have our limits. And in fact, you might not even get through 10 of the screen shots below before you’ve just about had it. But trust us, like the unexplained need to stare at any incident of utter destruction, you’ll want to watch.

Below is a 13-minute video taken at a protest in Brooklyn, NY, on Sunday featuring a lot of communists, a lot of angry cop-haters, a New Black Panther, and a heck of a lot of crazy all filmed by what appears to be an Occupy sympathizer. The rally-goers are upset over the death of 16-year-old Kimani Gray in early March. He was shot by police after they say he pulled a gun. But protesters have been rallying ever since and claiming it as an example of police brutality.

Such was the case on Sunday, when a group met to march near where the young man died. So far, whether you agree or not with their cries, that likely makes sense.

These idiots are why people should be sterilized. What idiots. If you point a gun at the police, you may get shot! How about you don't commit crimes and don't point guns at the police?

I agree. It seems to me that this kid was an ARMED GANG MEMBER who pointed a gun at the police and was shot. Live by the sword, die by the sword. How about weeks of rally for the cops who put their lives on the line protecting the community.

How come they didn't find a gun? And when one miraculously appeared, it didn't match the description the cop gave on the one he 'said' the kid had?

They would have to actually put their lives on the line to warrant a rally. And I bet they would still beat and pepper spray the people.

Learn to read. A gun was recovered at the scene. The next time a hoodlem points a gun at you dont call the police. Just go outside with a sign saying how unfair it is that the cops didbt respond. Tool.

Why don't you two fool tools learn to read. And how come he was shot 11 times? Including the back? And don't worry, I will never call the cops. There is no situation where a cops presence will not make it worse. Cops around here are like tits on a boar hog. Worthless.

The NYPD officers who shot 16-year-old Kimani Gray seven times last weekend have a long history of lawsuits alleging civil rights abuses and have cost New York City over $215,000 in settlements. Sgt. Mourad Mourad and Officer Jovaniel Cordova, who have now been identified as the officers who shot Gray, have had a total of five lawsuits brought against the two of them, including suits stemming from wrongful arrest and illegal stop and frisks.

Lawyer Brett Klein, who argued on behalf of the plaintiffs in four out of the five cases, told the Daily News that, "Our clients' interactions with Sgt. Mourad and Officer Cordova expose a disturbing pattern of unconstitutional and aggressive stop-and-frisk practices."

The lawsuits include a wrongful arrest that resulted in a man staying four months at Rikers Island, as well as a traffic stop where Sgt. Mourad attempted to pull the driver's underwear off. Another lawsuit alleged that Officer Cordova punched a man in the face inside of a Manhattan apartment building.

The officers have been put on desk duty while the Brooklyn DA investigates the circumstances of the shooting, which occurred after the officers alleged that Gray pulled a gun on them. Eyewitnesses dispute whether he was carrying a gun at all.

Just over two weeks ago, a 16-year-old boy named Kimani Gray was shot dead by two plainclothes police officers not far from his home in Brooklyn's East Flatbush neighborhood. The circumstances of the shooting are still in dispute: police claim that the young man pointed a .38 caliber revolver at them (though concede he fired no shots), while at least one witness has claimed that Gray was not armed at all. What is known is that the officers fired 11 shots in total, three of which hit the teenager in the back and killed him
