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.

Rational decent people realize that if an individual is known to ave committed a violent or predatory act, that individual, more likely than not, will repeat the behavior unless incarcerated and held accountable. Democrats like Adams are delusional. They do not hold individuals accountable for their actions. They blame the gun ,racism, poverty, climate change whatever, but never the individual . The result is that domains run by delusional Democrats, especially cities, are unlivable.

Why would we need a "national response" to what is purely a local NYC self-inflicted problem?

Rudy Giuliani could fix it for him!

Not to get ahead of ourselves, but what are the odds that when they catch the perpetrator, that he has a well established rap sheet?

And that he was out on minimal bail or PR for his last arrest

Now, that’s a pretty good photoshop. Doesn’t look obviously cut and pasted.

Because New York’s proud tradition of gun control since the 1911 Sullivan Law has been so effective (do I actually need to indicate the sarc?).

National? This is a local problem. Take care of it. Hire more cops. Crack down on violent offenders. Step up subway patrols.

Translation: "NYC is a mess and it's everyone else's fault."

Typical leftist garbage. I hoped for better out of this guy, but apparently, he's just another stooge.

Of course it’s the gun and not the shooter.
