The Brooklyn Borough President has called for the return of the controversial NYPD anti-crime unit just a month after it was shut down due to anti-cop protests as shootings in the Big Apple continue to spike. Eric Adams, NYC's most influential black politician, claims that the plainclothes unit, whose job it was to get guns off the street, may need reform but should not have been completely eliminated. The former cop, who is running for mayor in 2021, said that the absence of the unit led 'bad guys' to believe they can do 'whatever you want'.

The crime unit cannot be reinstated. Their budget has been cut to zero. There is no money to bring it back.

It will have to be vigilante rule.

“Gun-hunting?” You mean they actually have people that go after proper criminals that use firearms to commit crimes/illegally obtained firearms?

If the Party decides that full anarchy will promote the Revolution, this guy will be told he “ain’t black” and will disappear from public accounts.

It was blacks in the neighborhood that sought more Baltimore police enforcement that resulted in the Freddy Gray arrest. It was black leaders that cried out for a solution to the crack epidemic that resulted in some parts of the 1994 crime bill.

Life is hard as it offers choices and presents consequences. Good for the Eric Adams to recognize this so quickly and jump off of the anti-policing bandwagon.

Guess they don’t understand that the Mayor of NYC does not care about them. Will this wake the people up? Sorry to say I don’t think so.
