New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) called for a “national response” to rising violence following a subway shooting that wounded over a dozen people on Tuesday.

Adams told CNN’s Dana Bash in an interview that increased violence is an issue affecting the entire country and said that while officials have recovered more than 1,800 guns in the last three and a half months, the city needed some assistance.

“We’re going to continue to do our job, but there is some assistance that’s going to be needed in our city, such as an empowering ATF,” the mayor said, referring to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.

Control your people, Eric. There, I said it.

“Read the uniform crime report. It’s not guns, it’s demographics and culture.”

That’s a fact. But it’s a fact that damages the left’s political and social narrative.

“OK, how about we Decertify New York City as a City or part of a State, Declare it a Federal Penal Colony, Surround it with an impenetrable wall, and cut power and gas?”

Hey, I saw that movie!

77 % of blacks are raised in fatherless households. That percentage is undoubtedly higher in New York City.

Until that central issue is addressed, confiscating all the guns, knives, and baseball bats in the urban hell-holes isn’t going to alleviate the violence one iota.

They have “Fed” written all over them.

All that Amtrak $ Uncle Joe secured for them and they don’t know if cameras were functioning.

I can see the mayor is not letting a crisis go to waste. The leftist playbook.

By the way, are they still refusing to call this a case of terrorism?

After all the degrading nobody is signing u to be a cop

All us Kansas Jayhawkers think you should legally arm the majority of your non-felon populous.

Works for us. Of course we still have our trains run on top of the ground out here.....

Clean your own house.

NYC is not the nation’s responsibility.

[Political Junkie Too]

Why?

Because the Brooklyn "N" line stands for "national?"

Where else does it stop outside of New York?

Get rid of Woke, ‘Rat mayors in most Urban Utopias.

Said idiot mayors don't just fall into office at random. They're voted in by the majority of the electorate. The problem with NYC isn't jackass Adams it's the New York morons who voted for him

[McGruff]

Ban subways, I’ve never ridden one.

[mykroar]

Clean up your own mess first,

Another shooting, another call for a “national dialogue” about violence and getting guns off the streets. This is getting old 😴😴😴

“OK - here is the national response: You Broke It, You Fix It.”

Good comment. Mr. Mayor, don’t try to drag the rest of the country into your lethal clown show problems. You have a model to use in fixing these problems. Google Mayor Rudy G’s method.

Maybe you could incarcerate the perpetrators rather than putting them back out into society.
