NYC gun violence czar named as crime fears increase

NEW YORK - With gun violence plaguing New York City, Mayor Eric Adams introduced his new gun violence czar at an event outside City Hall.

Adams tapped Andre T. Mitchell, his friend of 30 years and the founder of Man Up, the Brooklyn-based organization that deploys outreach workers to troubled neighborhoods to attempt to prevent violence before it happens, for the volunteer job. Mitchell will co-chair a new task force with Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright. 

But the mayor's selection is raising some eyebrows.

  7. The civil rights battle of the decade. Good phrase, guaranteed to bring in lots and lots of upper middle class and above white folks with Giving Cards in hand.

  8. We have more fucking "czars" here than Russia ever thought of . Political appointees with no responsibility , no accountability ,no oversight and nothing to show at the end of the day.
