Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams called for a national response on gun control Tuesday following a shooting in a Brooklyn subway station.

At least 10 people were shot in the incident, including seven males and three females, according to authorities. Thirteen people suffered injuries from smoke inhalation, falling down or suffering from a panic attack. Five people were in critical condition but were expected to survive.

At least 29 in all were treated at hospitals for gunshot wounds, smoke inhalation, and other conditions. None of the injuries appeared to be life-threatening.

"Every day I wake up to protect this city, and they have trusted me as their mayor," Adams told CNN host Alisyn Camerota following the shooting.

That fact probably saved several lives…. Gee, did the guy have a pistol permit? Where did he get the Glock from, and the extended magazine? Gun law in NY sure worked wonders, didn’t it?

New York City mayor Eric Adams is a retired NYPD captain yet crime in the city is climbing. A token cop and a token mayor.

This puke calls for more gun control the same day he doubles his taxpayer-funded security detail.

These people are disgusting

I'm guessing this one will quickly vanish down the memory hole. It doesn't fit the gun control narrative of the "MAGA hat wearing, old racist white guy." The perp was black and according to his social media post about as far left as you could get.

Funny thing was back when Adams was running for Mayor, I remember many, even some on here, saying he was about as good a candidate as NYC could hope to get, a "law and order" democrat, more Joe Manchin than AOC. So far, if anything, he seems like he's more of a left wing kook, at least on guns, than even De Blasio.

See my tagline. Another leftist politician wants to make everyone a sheep.

Adams is not only a leftwing punk, but he’d do the same as frank given enough years and hating whitey.

Smoke bombs used and no kill shots. It’s as if no harm to the subway system and no fatalities was the intention.

Why don’t they focus on the Black Hate groups?

Racism and Hate.

on the alternate Earth,
hanging the mayors and judges in each city where
murderers and rapists were freed without bail
and then committed ANOTHER crime,
stopped all this nonsense.

Shooter is Black. Many of the victims appear to be Asian.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

The selling point of a 380 is form factor. It is small.

An extended mag is large.

These things are contradictory.

You can fit an equal amount of .380’s in a 9mm mag length. The only difference is the length by a few mm.

Difference is only front-to-back length I mean. The width of 9mm, .38, .357mag, .380 are all the same and you can fit an equal amount in the same magazine top-to-bottom

AS IF banning guns will end gun violence.

Right. Like outlawing drugs ends drug abuse.

I don’t take illegal drugs, BUT ... if I want illegal drugs, I know exactly where to go to get them, 24/7.

Same with weapons...

When is the country going to address black racism, black crime, and black hate? It’s ripping the country apart and most are too cowardly to discuss it.

All gun laws in NYC that were not adhered to in the subway shooting should be repealed since they didn’t work.

He’ll get his national response, and it will be overwhelming, in November.
