Mayor Eric Adams demanded assistance Sunday from Washington D.C. to block the “constant flow” of firearms into the Big Apple, days after an NYPD cop was killed and another officer was left fighting for his life after they were shot — declaring “the federal government must step in.”
“The police department is doing their job taking thousands of guns off the streets, yet each time you take a gun off, there’s a constant flow of new guns coming here,” he said on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
“And if we don’t coordinate to go after those gun dealers that are supplying large cities in America such as New York, we are losing the battle, and the federal government must step in and play a role in doing so.”
During a subsequent TV appearance, Adams speculated that even though cops seize many firearms, they are quickly replenished by even more of them being transported to New York City.

That’s your problem right their (sic) Mr. Mayor. NYPD’s job should be to take criminals off the streets.

NYPD’s job is to arrest the criminals.
Mr. Mayor’s job is to see that his DA prosecutes them to the fullest extent of the law, not coddle and allow them out on minimal to no bail. Bring back Stop & Frisk and watch those illegal guns dry up.
Hey numb nuts, you’re the mayor. You wanted the job.
This guy is an idiot, holy smokes, why are democrats so damn stupid and blind?
So Dinkins II is crying for help?
I had high hopes. However, now I doubt this guy will be much better than DeBlasio.
Mayor, it was a STOLEN gun.
Purchased illegally by a criminal in your City, who was not locked up, likely using some kind of government money.
Go clean up your own room.
I wonder why he hasn’t hired on Rudy as a policy advisor?
It has nothing to do with the criminals that you refuse to prosecute and lock up......./s
Programs! We need programs!
Seems New York City has another worthless Mayor.
How about just keeping the criminals locked up? Oh that’s right the dems will need that jail space for conservatives and any dissenting voice against Biden. I just got kicked off FB for 3 days because I called the “vaccine” poison and said we should give it to fauci. Who knew they had “community standards”.
Well said.
Which goes to show how seriously unqualified they are for the position they hold.
If they can’t do the job, they should step aside and let someone who can do it.
Actually, they are probably following orders so as to institute a federal police force and make the US an official police state.
I don’t believe that they are stupid or blind.
They are evil and advancing an agenda.
Yeah, he was a cop, who constantly complained about whites and played the race card.
We all know who is behind the crime surge in NYC and other urban hellholes, and no it ain't muh white people.
Politicians are too gutless to point it out though.
Hillary and Biden were criticized for sponsoring the crime bill in the 1990s but you know what, they were right for a change.
Idiots in NYC support defunding cops, letting criminals out on bail, and inmates out of prison for covid and now demand the govt to save them. Morons
Yep! Usually with those criminals comes guns. It’s a two fer
Biden sponsored the crime bill when he was an unapologetic segregationist. Same with the Clintons. As soon as they fell out of favor with normal white people they changed their tune because they needed black votes to win.
