Adams on Target Closure: We Need to Do More to Combat Theft, But New York ‘Is Humming’
Breitbart ^ | 09/29/2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 09/29/2023 6:25:50 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday’s edition of WABC’s “Sid & Friends in the Morning,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) reacted to Target closing one of its locations in the city due to theft by stating that more work needs to be done, but shoplifting is down and “people who want to wake up every day praying that Eric Adams the pilot fails and crashes, you better wake up, man. You’re a passenger on this plane called NYC. You better hope I land this damn plane and stop hoping and praying that I fail. The city is back. We’re resilient.”

Host Sid Rosenberg asked, [relevant exchange begins around 20:20] “I want to get to Target, and it turns out that they’re leaving. And you know, Mr. Mayor, we can’t afford that. We can’t. We need big business here. We need big names here in New York, and the fact that they can’t survive, just like what’s going on in San Francisco, Los Angeles, because people walk in and rob stuff every day, I mean, come on, man, that is unbelievable. That’s ridiculous. … What the hell is going on in this city that Target is leaving and our daycares are not really daycares, instead, they’re criminal operations?

He’s a True Believer.

There’s no reasoning with him.

It’s the Dem narrative... “Don’t believe your lying eyes.”

Shop Lifting down because one of 3 reasons:

1-they’re not prosecuting so it’s not logged.
2-more companies have closed down and left.
3- He’s flat out lying

It’s weird how crime goes down when you reduce the list of things considered crimes.

Sounds like something one of the 911 hijackers would say--just not in Arabic.

Yes, indeed. If they ever do a remake of the movie Titanic, the role of the ship’s designer should go to Mayor “Unsinkable Eric” Adams. He’s got the character down pat.

Lock the doors, only let them in-out through a two-door system through a long passage.

ID required to enter.

Some one steals, you lock the outside door. Let any passenger in the walkway in, then lock the inside door.

Watch and laugh as the suspect is locked in, while waiting for the police to arrive.

Exactly! For this asshat to even suggest that shoplifting is down is ludicrous. Until he starts throwing the book at the thugs who control the city, NYC is going to die from its own internal rot.

The reality is that the government needs to stop enforcing laws just enough to let crime become rampant enough in order to get corporate America to install the many pieces of the surveillance state that they want and need in place, but could not do on their own or pay for legislatively.

In the not too distant future, you will not be able to buy Tic Tacs off camera.

Adams is just another example of why affirmative action never works.

I don’t see what the problem is? Everything sounds like a typical democrat run city in a typical democrat run State.
