Reply To: Mayor of the fate of NYC

bored teen-“Yes, Eric Adams has been investigated for corruption in every office he’s held BUT he’s a former police officer so I feel like he’ll be tougher on crime. (He said he doesn’t support defunding the police)”

He doesnt need to defund anyone when he suspends half the force. Also being a police officer doesnt mean he will be tough on crime, he knows the system on both sides well. Sliwa volunteered his whole life fighting crime in the streets without weapons or pay so I think that shos how much he cares about battling crime.

The only concerning thing about Sliwa were his rants against Jews but yes he did apologize several times both publicly and on videos in Jewish neighborhoods where he came to celebrate Simchas Beis with Yidden in Brooklyn and even danced(you can find them on youtube). Adams wont get near that environment.

Also Curtis is known for his enthusiasm and went overboard in his rant, but he admitted to making a mistake and regretting and it takes a big man to admit mistakes especially publicly. He seemed sincere and hopefully it doesnt happen again. He specifically told the bochurim in Williamsburg that he respects the Yeshivas and will not touch them he is humbled by those who learn there. Do you think Eric Adams loves the Jews so much simply because he is sneaky enough to keep his mouth shut?
