NYC Mayor Eric Adams apologizes for calling white police officers 'crackers' and bragging about outperforming them in 2019 video
2022-02-05
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Small dog surrenders the bone.
  • NYC Mayor Eric Adams, 61, bragged about outperforming white officers while calling them 'crackers' in newly resurfaced video from 2019

  • 'Every day in the police department, I kicked those crackers’ a**,' he said at an even in East Harlem at the time

  • The mayor has since apologized for his 'inappropriate comments' at an unrelated press conference on Friday

  • The presidents of the Police Benevolent Association and Detectives Endowment Association said they still supported the mayor, despite the comment

  • The video was posted by Thomas Lopez-Pierre, who voted for Adams, wrote off the comments as 'how black people talk'

A mouthy young man of Dundalk
Transplanted from Louth to New York
Was branded a trigger
In Brooklyn. "Go figure.
I talk the way black people talk."
"And dem crackers down south dat we mock!"

#3  Perhaps. Perhaps calling his colleagues in blue racists names is a sign of affirmative action type out-performance.

#2  I don't see why he should apologize - if it bothers some white cop much, he probably is too much of a wuss to be a good cop.

#1  'how black people talk'

And that 'gun violence' everyone is so worried about is just how black people engage in acts of commerce. Nothing to see, move along.
