Days after the subway shooting in Brooklyn, New York City Mayor Eric Adams told ABC “This Week” Anchor George Stephanopoulos that the recent increase in crime extends beyond his city, calling it a “national issue.”⁠

“You know, I say over and over again, there are many rivers that feed the sea of violence. This is a national issue,” Adams said when pressed by Stephanopoulos on the rise in major crimes within New York City this year. “It’s not a red state, blue state. In fact, red states are experiencing a higher murder rate than blue states.”⁠

Frank James, 62, was charged with committing a terrorist act on a mass transportation vehicle after opening fire on a New York subway car Tuesday morning. Ten people were shot, and the shooting launched a 30-hour manhunt for James before he called Crime Stoppers on himself.⁠

New York City Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell told Stephanopoulos during a joint interview with Adams she thought James’ call to the tip line indicated that “we were kind of closing in around him” before he turned himself in.⁠

  1. Doesn’t it seem strange that the person who did the shooting is not from NY and isn’t a resident here! Why would someone come to a strange place and commit a felony especially a mass shooting on public transportation for no reason, and then turn himself in. This makes no sense. Is he trying to make N.Y. look bad?

  2. Reduce the Police funding, and regulate what the Police can do, this is what you get. And it will only get worse…

  3. These Democrats run cities are all going to become worse than Chicago.They collect so much money into their city budgets but they want to defund the police and they mismanage everything

  4. They only mention skin color when it’s a white person so they can attach Supremacist to it.Otherwise color is not so important.When will people realize that media and Democrats are twisting their mind and manipulating them?

  5. Especially in Democrats run cities.Defund the police 🙄 …Democrats had been pushing hard for it.What did you expect???
