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.

Why?
Outside of urban cesspits, most of us are not having this issue.
“..Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m already late for a Grand Opening Brunch and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at the newest Trader Joe’s Market!
I thought NYC was the gun control poster child for gun control and owning much less carrying a gun was illegal. Or are those laws only for crackas ?
The shooter and the mayor are both black retards.
How’s that defund the police working out for ya.
Your party caused it, you jerk!
“New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) called for a “national response” to rising violence..”
Not my problem mon..wear the jacket.
Adams would never blame his people for committing a disproportionate amount of murder, rape, and robberies. Nope. It is better to blame an inanimate object and disarm the law abiding citizens
Enquiring minds want to know. Was the shooter out on bail? Or perhaps he was just expressing his rage at the injustices of police violence.
Perhaps the anti-crime unit that was disbanded could have stopped him? Or a stop and frisk?
National Response?!?!
Here is my response. You built it, you live in it. And leave us alone. Give us a call when you are ready to return basic logic and reason to its place in the contemplations of the mind.
National response for big city problems?
Typical liberal overreach.
Just be glad it wasn’t feces again.
False flag
So it’s all the gun’s fault, right Eric?
False flag promptly after Slow Joe’s gun grab and announcement of the next incompetent fool to run ATF. I doubt that a gun ran amuck and started gunning down people without a criminal attached.
Chance = 100%
What might be effective would be to fire any DA that dropped the firearm charges against a criminal who used a gun in a crime.
In November you will get your national response.
Yet this happens every weekend in Chicago and no one cares.
Why is the rest of the country responsible for the mess you and your party have created in NYC?
Without reading the article I’m going to guess that he’s calling for stricter gun control. BECAUSE Law abiding gun owners in other states cause crime in NYC (Democrat logic - you just have to take it on faith, and most New Yorkers do)
