Wasn't it just the beginning of June when the Black Lives Matter activists started calling for the defunding and abolition of the police?
That's what I seem to remember, but suddenly, they seem to have changed their minds.
NYPD took their call to heart at least partially and eliminated their anti-crime unit, now for some reason, they want it back. Hmm...I wonder why?
After another tragic weekend of gun violence, including the death of a 1-year-old, two members of the Black community called on the NYPD to bring back the recently disbanded Anti-Crime Unit to help get guns off the street.
CBS2 political reporter Marcia Kramer has more on the story.
It was a dramatic moment — Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams holding up a pair of baby shoes Monday after a 1-year-old became the latest victim of gun violence, caught in the crossfire at a family barbecue just hours before.
“Babies are not supposed to be wearing these in a coffin,” Adams said.
Adams, a former cop, became the second member of the African-American community to call on the NYPD to stop the violence by re-instituting the Anti-Crime Unit — undercover cops whose job was to get guns off the street. The unit was disbanded during the anti-cop protest that shook the city.
“I think that a total elimination is something we need to reevaluate,” said Adams. “Right now, bad guys are saying if you don’t see a blue and white you can do whatever you want.”
Community activist Tony Herbert agrees.
“The guns keep going off and now we have a 1-year-old and the blood is on the hands of the mayor and the state Legislature,” said Herbert.
I can tell you what the biggest problem is with New York City, the NYPD, and police brutality. It's Mayor Bill de Blasio. This man is about as worthless of a leader as there ever was.
Now, I'm not a fan of Michael Bloomberg by any stretch of the imagination, but I'd rather have him as a mayor than de Blasio. The only thing that's happened as a result of de Blasio's elimination of the anti-crime unit is a 200% increase of shootings.
New York cannot succeed until they get rid of DeBlasio.

Worst Mayor ever Bill De Blasio in the dumbest decision ever shut down the NYPD's anti-crime unit - since then shootings up 205%. He's painting Black Live Matter on streets while allowing people to get shot. Notice Cuomo does nothing to help: https://t.co/6i7tholG8r

You'll Never Guess What the Left Is Labeling As 'Systemically Racist'
What we really need right now in the United States - among other things - is for people to stop being snowflakes and stop being offended by everything in existence.
It has become a joke and I truly hope that eventually, people will quit taking this crap seriously because the left wants to claim that everything is racist...except when people are racist against white people.
