More and more people are leaving NYC due to the insane cost of living? He is not doing anything to create "affordable housing" in NYC. People who are working from home are still paying the city and state of NY taxes, yet all he speaks about is "returning to the office".

#1 issue in NYC in my opinion is crazy homeless people all over the place. Maybe that sounds insensitive, but I'm not talking about homeless people in shelters. I'm talkin about literally crazy homeless people that do nothing but harass strangers all day and seemingly have zero consequence ever. It may seem small to someone outside the city, but if you're in the city, it actually impacts your standard of living because you're gonna have a crazy guy scream in your face like twice a month and sometimes people get attacked. You never know if it'll happen to you

[@maxcornise7204]

The crazy homeless are the ones who have been out on the streets for years and years. They have lost the ability to think or care about anything but basic survival. Their higher reasoning is not functioning. I was homeless for four years.

this guy really doesnt think removing 1800 guns "from the street" will have any impact at all on crime does he...except for the people who sell guns, thats just 1800 more potential customers

[@BrandonBooks]

So what should he do then? Nothing?

[@ogmius2001]

@@BrandonBooks not bragging about it would be a start

[@kommisar.]

@@BrandonBooks Maybe he should start by loosening up NYC's gun laws since they are so draconian that they're being challenged in the Supreme Court. Hardly any honest citizen can get a carry permit unless they are politically connected. More armed citizens = fewer gun crimes. He should also get rid of the new DA who is soft on crime.

[@BrandonBooks]

@@kommisar. I really don’t see the correlation of more guns being on the streets resulting in fewer gun crimes? New York is very densely populated this isn’t Florida or texas. How does making guns easier to obtain in such a densely populated city result in fewer gun crimes?

[@kommisar.]

@@BrandonBooks The same reason more guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens reduces gun crimes everywhere else: When criminals know or think a potential crime victim might be armed, they think twice about committing a crime against that individual. It's a deterrent, the best deterrent of all against crime in fact. Millions of people (outside of law enforcement and military of course) each year use guns to defend themselves against criminals, even if it only means scaring them off. There's a reason mass shootings never happen at gun shows or places where there are a lot of guns, and only happen at places it's well known guns are prohibited, like schools. The overall point here is that if you listen to Adams talk about NYC's crime problems, he always blames it on illegal gun possession and never on bad policy. NYC has had a soft on crime approach where criminals are released from jail on little to no bail and given very reduced charges or even not charged at all. This includes for more serious crimes and habitual offenders. A perfect case in point is the guy who burned down the Fox Christmas tree last year had a lengthy criminal record, including not appearing for court appearances in the year prior, and was homeless. Despite those making him a flight risk and despite causing $500K in damages, they reduced the charges down to misdemeanors and that made him ineligible for being forced to pay bail. He was also never charged for exposing himself in front of a courthouse to reporters prior as well. My guess is they went super easy on him despite him being a problem because he's mentally ill and the DA has a soft spot for crazies. It's stuff like this where Adams and the NYC Dems refuse to own up to their bad policies. As much as they might condemn stop and frisk, it worked to a large degree and was not racist. Most of the violent crimes happen to occur in black and Hispanic areas. Over 90% of all murders in NYC are committed by blacks and Hispanics, but people like Adams refuse to admit this and believe crime is an equal opportunity activity. Blaming it all on guns and not on bad policies along with social causes, like children growing up in broken homes, is the song and dance of these propagandists. This is why NYC's crime problem is not really getting better and one of many reasons why people are leaving that place. Crime drives down property values, increases the financial strain of the city and physically degrades neighborhoods.

[@leaveblank2]

he should also implement "SPEED BUMPS" on every NYC block that has houses, schools, universities, public housing and restaurants to protect the safety of the public against these speed demons and cyclist that don't care about ppl lives. Speeding traffic cameras are not enough!!

[@MrsV777]

It’s not about the children… it’s about the income that the tickets generate. The speed demons still do what they do because they don’t pay tickets. The speed bumps would impede revenue. Sadly that’s what the real priority is. Oh and surveillance too.

However, as the appointment spurred controversy and allegations of nepotism, the mayor shifted gears and instead tapped his brother to become executive director of mayoral security, a City Hall official said Wednesday."

@@cqk3578 you have to give him a chance. He's only been mayor for a little over 6 months. Rome wasn't built in a day.

I hope he can kicked out of office, disgusting pathetic excuse of a mayor

The real question is is Eric Adams really the mayor of NYC. I think we all know the answer to that. I mean it's much worse now, really worrisome worse, than when Dinkins was mayor. Can't dare to travel by subway or go to anyplace where criminals might be waiting and there doesn't seem to be anywhere that that would be. The man is a joke.

I'd respect Eric Adams more if his response to every single failure of the NYPD, which already receives more funding than most other countries' militaries, wasn't that the police need more money. For what, more tanks?

Why work hard to protect the public if they get released without bail. Why sign up for 3 hours of paperwork for nothing. Without the fear of consequences society itself crumbles, due to bad decisions New York is a shadow of it's former self.

And yet you left out the DAs and judges that are letting these thugs walk the street after their arrest. Don't let that little fact get in your way.

@@mrmrso228 In what way would more cops decrease the number of "thugs," as you call them, in your neighborhood? Unless you are suggesting that all "suspicious characters" should be sent to prison? In which case I'll happily send you my taxpayer portion of the bill to incarcerate someone. Median price is about $40,000/yr.

@@BobtheRedead lmao which part of the Bronx or Uptown do you live in? When you move into these areas get back to me.

[@BobtheRedead]

@@mrmrso228 Prosecution and arrests are entirely separate aspects of the judicial process. If you don't understand the difference, or the basic mechanics of how the justice system works, maybe sit down and don't opine about things you're ignorant about. What do you even think happens when a person is arrested?
