NYC Mayor Eric Adams apologizes for calling white police officers 'crackers' and bragging about outperforming them in 2019 video

New York City Mayor Eric Adams apologized for a 2019 video where he called white police officers 'crackers.'

Adams, 61, was caught bragging about being an 'unbelievably' good police officer compared to his white colleagues at a 2019 event in East Harlem where he was announcing he was going to run for mayor.

'Every day in the police department, I kicked those crackers’ a**,' he said in the recently resurfaced video. 'Man, I was unbelievable in the police department with 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement.'

At a press conference on Friday, which was unrelated to the 2019 incident, the new mayor apologized for his 'inappropriate' comments.

'I definitely apologize,' he said. 'Inappropriate comments should not have been used.

'Someone asked me a question using that comment and playing on that word. I responded in that comment, but clearly, these comments should not have been used, and I apologize not only to those who heard it, but to New Yorkers because they should expect more from me. That was inappropriate.'

I accept your apology. Now tell the cracker governor to fire Alvin Bragg.

The 64 dollar question is will he be as forgiving when someone uses the dreaded N word to describe him as he wants people to be to him.......

I think we all know the answer to that.

He said it, he meant it, he’d say it again if he thought he could get away with it. Liberal apologies are not worth spitting in your hand. And this clown is already demonstrating he’s going to be just as bad as his predecessor. Suckered again people.

Just another example of the sort of sociopaths that actually WANT these positions - anyone that thinks they SHOULD be a high level political official should be disqualified by that alone.

Conscription and forced service of the best and brightest, for a short term of service. High public service should be viewed in the same vein as jury duty.

Adams is an outright RACIST.

The ungrateful scumbag was promoted multiple times in the NYPD, through methods of Reverse Discrimination, Race Preferences and policies that put 'Crackers' at the back of the bus.

Eric Adams, New York City mayor is a racist POS February 4, 2022 admin Latest Ramblings 2 Comments

Remember before the November election, how “conservative” media like so called Fox News, Newsmax and others kept promoting Eric Adams as being the grown up and man New York City needed to get the city back on track after eight years of embarrassment from Bill de Blasio? Turns out I was right again. Eric Adams is not only a communist clown, but he’s also a filthy, racist, anti-police POST. A video from 2019 has leaked showing Adams calling NYPD officers “crackers”, the slur against whites.

Where the hell was this video during the mayor campaign? Dumb ass Republican worthless candidate couldn’t find this racist video of Eric Adams?

I’m tired of these God damn double standards and the weak and timidness of Republicans!

New York City deserves the embarrassment and failures of Bill de Blasio. Now, they reap what they sow with racist Eric Adams. Leo Terrell
