NEW YORK — Leaders of the city’s Black Lives Matter movement on Wednesday threatened “riots” and “bloodshed” in the streets if Mayor-elect Eric Adams reverses the abolition of the NYPD’s controversial anti-crime units.

“If he thinks that they’re going to go back to the old ways of policing, then we are going to take to the streets again. There will be riots, there will be fire and there will be bloodshed because we believe in defending our people,” said Hawk Newsome, co-founder of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York, after a heated meeting with Adams in Brooklyn Borough Hall.

Wouldn’t Mr. Newsome be inciting a riot by publically threatening this?

Of course w/ Letitia James as NY AG then he can do what he wants.

Adams needs to stand up and say “I’m your huckleberry”.

D'ya hear that, FBI?

D'ya hear that, DOJ?

This is what a domestic terrorist sounds like.

There’s gonna be a showdown. Pass the popcorn

Adams will win this fight. Probably a lot of NYPD are just itching to throw down with the thugs and punks.

[lee martell]

This is a direct threat and a publicly made dare. Now he better bring those patrols back or BLM will declare victory and territorial ownership.

Im a bit concerned at how much this mayor seems to enjoy being in the presence of celebrities, but maybe it’s not going to become a big deal or guiding light.

[Recompennation]

Sounds like an insurrection to me, hmmmmm

"There will be riots, there will be fire and there will be bloodshed."

Are we allowed to say such things here on FR..?

[maddog55]

That would be fun to watch!

>>There will be riots, there will be fire and there will be bloodshed

I can’t wait.

[beachn4fun]

Seriously, how are there any BLMs left on our streets? They should all be in jail.

[tired&retired]

They may be surprised when the blood flowing is their own.

I dunno. He has a D after his name.

[Carriage Hill]

SPJNK.

[Singermom]

I say find out who “THEY” are and go and destroy their homes.

[Singermom]

Right. When they are out destroying the city go and destroy their homes. They will not stay in jail anyway. The DA will see that they are released immediately, NOT like the Jan 6 prisoners.

[realcleanguy]

Sounds like an insurgency to me. Should activate the national guard, bring in the tanks

[JonPreston]

I have my popcorn and front row seat.

Burn it all down.
