Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, who has called for changes within the NYPD, said the recent surge in violence has nothing to do with police funding.

“Everything that was wrong in these communities has been worse since the pandemic. Why did we think the gun violence issue wouldn’t be part of that?” Williams said.

What a moron. Nobody will speak the truth about race and violence. Besides, the shooter was just out looking for bread according to AOC. Maybe she misunderstood exactly what kind of “bread” they want.

This kind of thing would not happen if we just defunded the police.

No such thing as gun violence, only thug violence, but we are not allowed to place the blame on the real culprits.

Cowards kill defenseless babies and take down harmless statues. Continuing this trend, I expect that mannequins in stores should be getting very nervous…

Davell Gardner, one, was shot in the stomach and later died in the hospital.

De Blasio has hitched his star to a dysfunctional ideology and, on top of that, he is an incompetent boob.

I wouldn't be surprised is he weren't eventually tarred and feathered.

This is sick and the Mayor deserves plenty of blame for it. Little consolation to this baby. Get used to this folks - lot’s of moments of silence and blaming guns, but the feckless leaders who created and encouraged this environment will not address the elephant in the room.

We need the police to keep a lid on gang violence and criminals. Period. There is no alternative. You cannot fix this degree of criminality with social workers, midnight basketball, or any other fanciful alternative. It takes the police. Men and women willing to confront evil on behalf of their community. However, the mayor has pretty much labeled them as evil so he and others now have a real catch-22.

The answer is obvious and inevitable so the real question now is how many dead children will it take for NYC to say “enough”?

What don’t you understand about “the new normal”.

Community advocate Tony Herbert said he wants to see the NYPD’s Anti-Crime Unit back on the streets.

"We're sorry. The number you dialed is no longer in service."

Why is it that every time a retarded gangsta pulls the trigger some toddler gets whacked?

We don’t have a gun problem in this country, we’ve got an habitual criminal problem!

We also have a problem with a political culture that effectively sides with some criminals if they’ve got certain attributes....

Mayor Bill de Blasio held a moment of silence during Monday’s press briefing and said he was “heartbroken” over the child’s death.

Maybe the letters in that BLM poster you painted in front of Trump Tower needs to be in a larger font. Perhaps that's the problem.

Answer your own question, Jumaane. You were the one who said the protesters were “mostly peaceful”. Perhaps cutting the Billion in funding will help?

It will only get worse, and it has been planned, until the people have had enough. Only then will the Democrats ride in on their white horses and save the nation. Their plan and long desired dream will be to Federalize law enforcement, the take over AND “transformation” of all municipal police departments, which will operate under the FBI. Small police departments will be directed by close large cities. They will sell it and the people will go for it, including all current LE who will become federal employees. (This will take the power away from the states and gun confiscation will not be far behind.)

They will sell it like this:

Safety for cities as well as the police.
Consistent and professional training under the same organization.
Able to monitor criminals under one federal data base.
Monitor and prosecute hate crimes.
Stop the bleeding from retiring police and it will encourage new hires.

It doesn’t stop. Crime is exactly what democrats want. That is what they vote for and that is what democrat politicians give them in order to keep the populace fearful and controlled. These murders are a feature of socialism not a bug.

Jumaane and AOC both need to get a trip to OZ so the Wizard can furnish them with brains.
