New York City's far-left Mayor Zohran Mamdani has hit a shocking new low in his war against law enforcement, demanding that a knife-wielding man who charged at an NYPD officer face zero criminal charges despite pulse-pounding body camera footage showing the terrifying encounter.
The incident unfolded Wednesday when an NYPD officer was forced to shoot a delusional man armed with a knife who allegedly charged at the officer despite multiple commands to drop his weapon. Instead of backing the brave officer who protected himself and the public, Mamdani rushed to coddle the criminal.
The self-declared "democratic socialist" – let's call him what he really is, a Marxist – actually met with the perpetrator and demanded he face no charges whatsoever. This is the same radical mayor whose disastrous tenure has already turned America's greatest city into a playground for criminals and cop-haters.
Americans across social media are expressing outrage at Mamdani's anti-police stance. "People who attack police officers with a knife to kill cops are a danger to society," posted @thejpchurch, sharing the dramatic body cam footage that shows just how dangerous this situation was for the responding officer.
Another user, @DavidHughe73052, didn't mince words: "NYC COMMIE MAYOR.. Told by family the violent guy is Psycho. He just takes their word for it.. BYE BYE RESIDENTS OF NEW YORK.. COMMUNIST GOV & MAYOR."
This is exactly the kind of soft-on-crime, anti-police radicalism that voters rejected when they elected President Trump for a second term. While Trump works to restore law and order nationwide, socialist mayors like Mamdani are busy protecting knife-wielding criminals over the heroic officers who risk their lives daily.
How many more officers must be put in danger before New Yorkers wake up and realize their city is being destroyed by radical leftist policies? When will enough be enough?
