“#Maya Wiley can\u2019t contain her contempt for cops<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Maya Wiley again proved what a disaster she\u2019d be as mayor last week, by refusing to commit to not<\/em> disarming cops.<\/p>\n

At the debate, WCBS\u2019s Marcia Kramer pushed Mayor Bill de Blasio\u2019s former legal adviser on what she thought of state Attorney General<\/a> Letitia James\u2019 suggestion to mandate that law-enforcers use force only as a last resort. Wiley dodged: \u201cSafety is job one, and I\u2019m going to keep New Yorkers safe when I\u2019m mayor.\u201d<\/p>\n

So Kramer asked if she\u2019d take guns away from the NYPD, and Wiley dropped her bomb: \u201cI am not prepared to make that decision in a debate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Huh? What decision is there to make? It\u2019d be absurd <\/em>to disarm the city\u2019s cops at any time, let alone one when the bad guys are firing their weapons at an ever-higher rate. Yet Wiley\u2019s refusal to commit is an announcement that she finds the idea attractive.<\/p>\n

Not that it\u2019s a real surprise: Wiley is a police-hater who demonized NYPD officers in a campaign ad in which she claimed cops don\u2019t think she and other black New Yorkers \u201cdeserve to breathe.\u201d <\/p>\n

In reality, the NYPD\u2019s work has saved tens of thousands of black lives in recent decades, by bringing the murder rate to historic lows \u2014 though it\u2019s now starting to inch back up because Wiley and her fans imagine that police violence is now the greater threat. Literally: She\u2019s vowed to slash the NYPD\u2019s budget because \u201ctrauma\u201d from dealing with cops is a bigger problem than crime.<\/p>\n

In reality, most minority New Yorkers want more <\/em>cops in their neighborhoods, though of course they want the police to do their jobs as politely as possible. Then too, the force itself is now majority-minority. <\/p>\n

All of which is why Eric Adams wisely made fighting crime the signature issue of his campaign and why he leads in the polls. But a large and fractured field plus the advent of ranked-choice voting could let a loon like Wiley sneak into the Democratic nomination and likely victory in the fall \u2014 unless all sane New Yorkers make sure to leave her entirely off their ballots and choose only pro-public-safety candidates.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
