Poor lady follows his advice only to be shot 8 times in the pink houses.

Any marches planned to show we care about her life ?

I hope her estate plans on suing him.
Eric Adams is a former cop that knows the streets and knowingly gave out horrible advice. What a dummy. The scary thing is that he might be the best option for Mayor as a Democrat.

Don't the Democrats control Congress?

OMG that guy would be even worse than DeBoobio. Been a steady downward trend in leadership quality since Giuliani left.

I would revise the protocol where an officer in, say, the community affairs division, approaches anyone who sets firecrackers. The folk in sky blue jackets do give a de-escalating presence. Most of the time, the folk end their activity and go home. However, if the "firecracker" wants to "go there," we all know that those community affairs officers are armed, if necessary.
