Eric Adams righteously speaks for NYC’s principles against the chaos-mongers
NY Post
Mayor Adams’ remarks Wednesday, the morning after Columbia asked the NYPD to clear out the goons occupying Hamilton Hall, truly summed up the stakes.
He flagged how the protests, from the start, “just did not feel right” likely because of the presence (as in the 2020 madness) of “those who came to the city to disrupt our city.”
Whether he was talking about professional protesters like Linda Fithian or paid agitators like Manolo De Los Santos of The People’s Forum or the various Antifa types arrested Tuesday night inside Hamilton Hall, he plainly has the facts on his side.
And the values, too: “Young people are being influenced by those who are professionals at radicalizing our children, and I’m not going to allow that to happen as the mayor of the city of New York.”
Especially when “these external actors have a history of escalating situations and trying to create chaos. Not to peacefully protest, but create chaos.”
It was even more obvious at City College: “You saw bottles, garbage cans, the other items that were thrown at police officers.”
