From CBS 2 New York:
In Wake Of Continued Gun Violence, Prominent Members Of Black Community Call On NYPD To Bring Back Anti-Crime Unit
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.
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.”
Activists screaming “defund the cops” have caused the biggest loss in morale in police history. The NYPD is retiring by the hundreds. The anti-crime unit was suspended.
And the black neighborhoods of NYC run red with blood.
The result has been disastrous.
Some black people seem to actually care about curbing in the violence but you know they are going to be accused of being race traitors by BLM.
BLM may say “black lives matter” but by body count you can tell that they don’t really mean it.
