A top aide to the Democrat Mayor of New York City Eric Adams was mugged in a brazen broad daylight attack while scouting a location in Brooklyn.
As The New York Post reports:
Amid rising crime in the Big Apple, one of Mayor Eric Adams’ aides was mugged in broad daylight Tuesday while scouting a location in Brooklyn for a planned visit by Hizzoner, law enforcement sources told The Post.
The brazen caper took place even though the victim, a civilian member of Adams’ advance team, cautioned that he was a well-connected City Hall employee, a high-ranking police source said.
“You don’t want to do this. I work for the mayor,” he told the two crooks.
But in a show of utter contempt, they ignored the warning, with one man lifting his shirt to display the butt of a pistol tucked into his pants, the source said.
According to some observers the fact that the muggers were unfazed by learning that their intended victim was a high ranking official paints a grim picture about the state of crime in New York.
Ha ha ha, dumb democratic mayor supports crime not police
the ship be sinkin
the “republic” was destroyed in 1865. Many idiots still worship the fool that killed 660 000 citizens, Abraham Lincoln
Unfortunately it wasn’t Adams himself. That would have been GOLD!
Platinum!!!
Yeah but he travels with armed guards….you know with guns…..LOL
Gold Jerry, gold!
there is still time… I have hope. I HAVE A DREAM
True, but he has so much security around
him, they wouldn’t have gotten near him
or likely wouldn’t have even tried. Think
we know what he’ll do now, increase his
entourage. Next he’ll be asking for secret
service protection and a bullet proof limo.
New York never learns. They wanted him,
they got him. RIP New York.
Welcome to New York; welcome to the Third World.
Interesting headline. But, right now, America is concerned about the right-wing Highland Park mass-shooter, Bobby Crimo, who somehow legally got ahold of 5 weapons, including an AR-15-type rifle. This Crimo guy was a Trump supporter /rally enthusiast. These type of right-wing murderers seem to be of that ilk. Readers may be interested in checking the May 17, 2022 NY Times article by David Leonhardt titled “The Right’s Violence Problem”, which noted that, statistically, of about 450 killings committed by political extremists in the U.S. over the past decade, right-wing extremists committed about 75%, whereas left-wing extremists were responsible for just 4%. So, the danger of right-wing extremist-committed killings far exceeds that of such crimes by left-wing extremists.
He want a trump supporter no matter what the lib media has told you. His songs mentioned killing Trump
Ok Walt. Is 14 your IQ?
So all the black crimanals commitimg all the crimes are maga folks?
He is an antifa suppoter…one of yours
no red flags there? You mean, people don’t obey stupid laws anymore? gosh
Don’t rob me, I’m special. Yeah, right.
criminals can spot a wimpy sissy a mile away. recognize confidence (not scared) too
Guess he can be glad they only took his stuff, and did not shoot him. I ham relieved at that. And we can all be glad the muggers have freedom in NYC and CA cities. Also good in the sense that they appear smart enough to stay there to avoid being shot by law abiding citizens elsewhere.
Oh well.
It doesn’t matter who you know. The criminals know there will be no punishment. Hell, the mayor is part of the problem. The criminals have no incentive to stop committing the crimes.
karma
Couldn’t happen to a nicer A-hole.
The biggest problem with crime in such places is that those in power can’t comprehend the fact that their own policies are the root cause for the astronomical crime rates in their cities.
Couldn’t happen to a more SCREWED UP MAYOR AND CITY…
Sounds like “Stop and Frisk”was a great Idea after all! Much better than
De-Funding the Police or being Soft on Crime so Criminals wouldn’t have “Hurt Feelings” or feel that their “Rights” were being violated!
You got what you voted for, New York. I hope you’re happy!
You reap what you sow
All I can say is that Frank Sinatra would turn in his Grave And President Trump did so much for New York Its a shame how it has spiraled into a crime cess pool
Maybe after a few more Ranking dems get robbed, mugged, shot, burglarized, molested, the RATs will see the light and begin raising sentences again
Make the Press conference a virtual event with anime backgrounds and characters because New York is too dangerous!
Keep voting Democrat. Keep getting the same results.
Assult more of his aides & staff then Hell get the message
Merely a case of BLM fund raising.
Well, I’d say just desserts for a liberal run city.
You mean the ( don’t you know who I am” didn’t matter to the criminals? What is the world coming too….
Justice for all. Suffer the consequences of your actions.
Well, I live in Baltimore, and we have this kind of stuff happening all the time. I swear if the Angel Gabriel walked down the street, they’d try to steal his wings. But demon-rat led cities ask for what they get. No boo-hoo for you!
Good , now he sees what the regular people go through. Defund the Police again. Wait till the democrats take away all guns . Only the criminal will have them , it will get worse then.
There does seem to be some justice in this world after all!
Karma baby!
Fake news. Everyone knows how safe NYC is.
couldn’t have happened to a more deserving savage, in a more absolutely wicked city
