Mayor Eric Adams said that despite the NYPD taking around 6,000 guns off of the streets last year, new guns are arriving every day.
One solution that he laid out in an address on Monday afternoon was for city police to work with state law enforcement to set up spot checks at all entry points to the city like the Port Authority and other bus and train stations.
When questioned about the gun checks, Adams said he envisioned random checks where bags would be screened.

This is just as bad, if not worse, than that Stop & Frisk bullshit they were doing there for a while, and I don't want to hear any bullshit about how it worked wonders for reducing crime - a warrantless search is a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment.
Simply put: You don't have the Right to question, detain or search me simply because you suspect I'm exercising my Constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
-Ben Franklin
