Angry Adams says ‘Go after gun manufacturers’
Mayor Eric Adams, in a conversation with George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” discussed the municipal government’s role in curbing gun violence with Buffalo, NY, mayor Byron Brown, as well as St. Louis, MO, mayor Tishaura Jones and Little Rock, AK, mayor Frank Scott, Jr. The mayors emphasized that gun violence kills over 110 people per day and over double that amount of individuals are injured. In turn, it is the $9 billion industrialization of that violence and the “over-proliferation” of guns from which manufacturers profit – they “are turning pain into our communities,” as Mayor Adams told Stephanopoulos.
“So we want to mobilize, strategize, learn from each other and see best practices,” said Mayor Adams.
