"A group of roughly 40 protesters descended on a Cheesecake Factory in Queens this week to protest the city’s ongoing vaccine mandate at restaurants and other public indoor facilities. The individuals, who appear to be connected to online group New York Freedom Rally, staged a demonstration at a Cheesecake Factory in the Queens Center Mall on Tuesday evening, refusing to leave the restaurant or provide proof of vaccination, according to the New York Post. Six people were arrested and charged with criminal trespass in connection with the protest, the Post reports. It’s unclear why the group chose to protest at Cheesecake Factory, an international chain with more than 300 locations in the United States." - Luke Fortney
