NYC won’t ‘surrender’ to BLM, rioters, incoming mayor Adams warns: report
Fox News
New York City’s mayor-elect issued a stern warning Thursday night to those expecting to continue the riots and looting the nation’s largest city has seen over the past two years.
"We’re not going to surrender to those who are saying ‘We’re going to burn down New York’," Adams said. "We’re not going to surrender to those who are saying ‘We’re going to burn down New York.’" "We’re not going to have a city where anarchists … go into a community such as Queens and destroy the community for their own selfish needs and desires."
The message seemed squarely aimed at Hawk Newsome, a local leader of the Black Lives Matter movement who last month threatened "riots," "fire" and "bloodshed" if Adams tried to revive past anti-crime practices that were discarded during the de Blasio years.
