Mayor Eric Adams Apologizes For Inappropriate Comment About White Police Officers

Mayor Eric Adams issued an apology Friday after a video of an inappropriate comment he made in 2019 about white police officers was made public; CBS2 political reporter Marcia Kramer has the story.

Let's face it, we ALL know that if the situation was reversed in this case, that a mere 'apology' would never, ever do. This guy needs to be removed from his job, as he has shown that he cannot be fair to all New Yorkers, but only to certain ones. Enough with the double standards!

Imagine if a white Mayor used a term like this for black cops? The city would be burning.

Interesting how this man can say this and yet, it's okay. Wow. Privilege indeed.

That comment was meant to be said cause thats how he felt. .. PERIODT.! that's a racial motivated comment and if the "color" had been reversed while saying the other word..."I was kicking those azz"....while people were clapping...he would no longer be the Mayor right now .. but that's the world we live in....🙄

What! No resignation? He showed his true self in this video.

Being derogatory towards White people is tolerated & often encouraged by much of the left wing media. In fact if someone put together a Joe Rogan type compilation video of Mayor Adams comments you'd see almost no backlash just like absolutely nothing will come of this 2019 comment

So Rosanne got her show cancelled for saying racist stuff but I guess the same energy does not apply when its the other race saying racist comments

[bobjhonson]

i love the audience applauding him. says a lot about the current state of the usa.

[luvsonel]

Racist Mayor must resign, no apology just go! many white officers have been dismissed for much less... will his black privilege keep him on? KEEP IT REAL

[ryeloafbread]

Christ at this point just let MTV run our city government

[deborahd.]

Can you imagine how white police officers feel about Eric Adams' comments? I think every white police officer should get $100, 000 payment as partial reparations for these hurtful statements.

Switch the political party, race and let it have been the N word and I can guarantee an “apology” would not have been enough to stop this. The energy is never consistent in these situations. Conduct yourself accordingly or you don’t deserve the job it’s that simple.

Why is Eric Adams not being Cancelled for promoting RACIAL HATE???

[Whyufollowos]

Wait his brother was killed in a car jacking Involving an off-duty cop?. You mean he was a carjacker … ahh haaa!

[damontarloth]

We need consistency! You either Cancel people on both sides when they mess up or we get back to being the UNITED STATES where we have Free Speech!

[cakesaregood]

When someone shows you who they are……….believe them.

[jaredvelez]

If this was a white person saying a racial slur towards blacks we’d all be asking for this man’s resignation, ,,, fire this dude

[mrbruce]

So I expect the "Its just a word" crowd to rush and defend him right.

[axelfoley]

Just another guy that probably got his first job because of affirmative action, smh.

If roles were reversed, the mayor would be resigning. Minority privilege is quite strong in cities run by leftists. No bail is another example that favors criminals...and the majority of them are minority, in fact.
