Eric, you were there when we took crime down from 2200 murders a year to 500. Remember how we did it? We actually let the cops act proactively and backed them up. When they locked up violent thugs they actually went to prison. Listen to the guy who was at the helm and please wake up and knock this shyte off, embarrassing.
Rudy Giuliani
After 21 lost days, Adams is just beginning to develop his plan to reduce crime.
40% up in serious crime, 70% grand larceny, 160% auto theft, probably a record for a new Mayor.
Not to mention children and police who seem to be open targets.
Stop the gun control political bull.
Criminals don’t register their guns.
Instead use constitutional Terry stops to seize guns from the bad guys, (as approved in my administration by AG Reno and DAG Holder because it was 400,000 or so fewer, a much greater rate of success and justification and can be done now not after a long study…check the records), demand Soros funded DA Bragg is fired and incarcerate criminals until we are safe.
That would be 21 days or more of victims too many, but a start.
The officers, rookie Jason Rivera, 22, who was killed and his 27-year-old partner, who was gravely wounded, were the fourth and fifth cops shot in the city this month.

You know Eric, I was and I am still holding out hope for you. You wore the uniform, you had a front row seat to what was truly going on, regarding crime and violence in NYC. You rose the ranks and were out spoken and active on issues important to you. You wore the uniform.
Yet last night you let us down. You jumped on the Commie Democrat talking point that it is guns killing people and causing crime.
“It is our city against the killers,” Adams said during an emotionally charged press conference at Harlem Hospital, where the officers were rushed following the shooting. Adams called what happened an “attack on the city of New York” and “the children and families of this city.” The new mayor denounced gun manufacturers and traffickers “carving highways of death, destroying our communities” and blamed federal authorities for not stanching the flow of illegal firearms into the city.– Eric Adams
5 cops shot so far during your administration. A cop was killed last night and his partner is fighting for his life and you BLAME GUNS and not the predicate violent thugs pulling the triggers??? People who think like this allow these animals back on the street no matter how many times brave cops take them off.
Guns exist all over the USA, in conservative states and towns far more than NYC. Why then is it only in Democrat BLUE cities, where guns are ILLEGAL, that we have rampant gun violence??????
You and every other Democrat know the answer to that. All making them illegal does is to keep them out of the hands of decent, responsible people who actually OBEY THE LAW! No one is that ignorant to think releasing predicate violent thugs from prison and decriminalizing crime will not have a negative impact on violent crime stats.
Eric, your term is still in it’s infancy. Please don’t forget where you came from and what you learned as a NYC cop. You know what works and what SAVES LIVES. These violent thugs are killing black and brown people primarily, so if you need a Marxist “divide and conquer” talking point to run with, use that.
Take violent thugs off the street and crime will go down just like it did in the 90s. Not rocket science. You can’t claim ignorance like the lunatics running our Democrat shyteholes. Do the right thing for decent hardworking NYC residents in these neighborhoods and their protectors. Do your job and save lives Eric.

Maybe you should restore the NYPD to their well funded and proactive Giuliani days. Maybe you should be slamming the Manhattan DA who just decriminalized most crimes…… Not rocket science…..but you are on Team Marxist and are very happy with the results of the “revolution”. Just 4 days ago you said we were imagining crime, at least you acknowledge it now. Your admission won’t save lives, your police force will.
I know, I know. Anyone with half a brain could have predicted what would happened when they legalized looting lol. But these are Socialist Democrats we are talking about and the morons who placed them in power. Half are truly that stupid, the other half are trying very hard to destroy the system from within.
Los Angeles police have identified the suspected killer of 24-year-old Brianna Kupfer, a UCLA grad student stabbed to death at her furniture store job last week.
Shawn Laval Smith, 31, should be considered armed and dangerous, according to the LAPD.
Los Angeles County Jail records show Covina police arrested him on Oct. 27, 2020 on a misdemeanor charge. He was released on $1,000 bail. The outcome of that case was not immediately clear.
A law enforcement source tells Fox News Digital that Smith has a rap sheet that spans both coasts, including in San Francisco and South Carolina. His most recent charge is allegedly for shoplifting — and he landed up in jail in San Mateo after allegedly assaulting a police officer. Full story below
