Plan B

The mayor said he’s reaching out across the country and plans to put together a national working group to look at where cities can create no-carry zones: government designated safe-zones, or sensitive spaces, where concealed carry still would be restricted, even after licensing approval. “Because we don’t believe the Supreme Court is going to take up that aspect of it,” Adams said. “We believe there’s room for us to say, ‘OK, here’s where you can’t carry: subway systems, schools,’ we could restrict: ‘Ok, you no longer need a license. Well, here’s the restrictions of where you can’t carry.’ “That is what we’re putting together right now as a Plan B,” the mayor said. “Plan A is for them not to pass it.” [More]

We’re the Only Ones Diversifying Enough

Mayor Eric Adams insisted Monday he’s not worried about police officers leaving the NYPD in droves this year — declaring that being a Big Apple cop is an “amazing career,” and that the departures present a chance to “diversify” the force. [More]

We’re the Only Ones Getting a GRIP Enough

NYPD gun violence tracking database draws concern from civil liberties advocates … Critics of the list, which tracks gun violence suspects, worry people of color may be disproportionately surveilled. [More]

So “99%” is the data’s fault? Eric Adam’s supporters aren’t going to be very pleased.

And Michael Bloomberg’s The Trace complaining about racist gun control: That’s rich.

To be consistent, they’d have to put them on the “No Fly List,” which would be the political kiss of death, so it’s easier just to restrict what you and I can have.
