On Monday, the anti-trans feminist group 'Standing for Women' held a protest outside of NYC's City Hall they called "Let Women Speak", with the goal of creating spaces open only to cisgender women. The event was met with a counter-protest of transgender individuals and their allies. Standing For Women members held signs with slogans like "Wake up USA, transing kids is not OK." The TERF group had penned themselves inside a barricade surrounded by their own security personnel. As counter-protesters continued to appear, reports say that the security people began to get violent with them. This let to an all-out brawl between the two factions, causing NYPD to respond. The responding officers tackled protesters from both sides to the ground in an attempt to stop the fight, but it only continued to escalate. NYPD reports that 9 protesters were arrested. #transrights
