Mayor Eric Adams apologized for a 2019 video where he called white police officers 'crackers.'
Adams, 61, was caught bragging about being an 'unbelievably' good police officer compared to his white colleagues at a 2019 event in East Harlem where he was announcing he was going to run for mayor.
'Every day in the police department, I kicked those crackers’ a**,' he said in the recently resurfaced video. 'Man, I was unbelievable in the police department with 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement.'

A real legend in his own mind, who thought it was a good idea to announce a non-cracker as his police commissioner in front of a mural depicting cop killer Joanne Chesimard.

Unfortunate remark. He needs to smarten up, or he'll end up making deBlasio look good.

Is this a surprise to anyone that a black man is a flagrant racist.
His apology isn't worth anything.
face it folks the guy is just another knee-grow racist clown.
He brags on his performance as a police officer, I wonder what the real record shows.

The word cracker originally referred to a native born Floridian, especially one who worked with cattle. If you read some of the work of the Harlem Renaissance, you will find all kinds of derogatory words that refer to whites, and a lot of the BLM members come up with new ones. But they never get called on it.
I had hoped for better things from Mayor Adams.

Not on topic, but there are a lot of derogatory racist words out there for whites. I have never once been offended, sought a safe space or felt triggered.
There must be something wrong with me because I just laugh them off.......

I’m a “sticks and stones” kind of person but I do wonder what would happen if white people reacted to a racist slur from a major political figure the same way that black people do. We make up 60% of the population vs their 13%. Just imagine it.

"...defended the mayor, saying that's 'how black people talk' " BLACK RACISTS do, yes.
So if the rest of the population decides to start using the word n*gger we can just say that's how those people talk & it'll be fine.

The very fact that he is still in office and a white politician would have been literally eradicated for an offense a tenth as serious is indicative of the race relations in America today. Equality my a**!

Regardless of their color, scratch a democrat and you will uncover a racist. Thankfully, I am an adult and when I am called a cracker, I laugh at the ignorance. I will admit the double standard is annoying, but it is what I expect from democrats. They are the racist party. Thankfully, most adults in the country have moved on but dealing with those who believe everyone who doesn’t look like them are racists, is proof that this party is not fit to lead a three car parade. Until they drop their racist cudgel, nothing changes. How can you even have a conversation with someone so utterly unserious? I don’t care what color you are but your values matter to me. If you believe that you are entitled to burn, loot and riot we have no common ground upon which to have a conversation. We all have issues in life, hard knocks and trials, but they cannot define us or we will be imprisoned in a perpetual state of victimhood. When you do down that dark road, nothing will ever be good enough for you. Go away and grow up. Then we may be able to have a dialog. Until then, your words mean nothing.

It's not the crackers who are causing him problems now, it's his own tribesmen. This fraud will not last long but then again this is New York City and those people like to suffer.

He needs the NYPD to strictly enforce his show us your injection papers and wear a mask correctly edicts. The fact that NYPD sends 4 officers to arrest old ladies in wheelchairs and only 1 officer to an active shooter call is a poor selection for promotions issue.

As if we needed another example of the Left's double standard where they are concerned.
Imagine a White former police captain, who is now the mayor, saying he was better than all the blacks he worked with ... only the White guy used the word-that-must-not-be-pronounced-or-spoken! Yup ... he'd be toast ... or have to go on his knees over to the Rev-rum Not-so-Sharpton and pay a few million in apologies.
Trust me, this is how Adams speaks in private.
Racist scum.

You get what you pay for NY. He'll be favoring his 'bruthas' and the city will just degrade more. Then he'll come asking those White 'crackers' for more money to 'solve' the problem. Unless, like most ethnic dem politicians, he's able to steal enough to get out of town and move to some swanky White area!

A couple of points were made here in the remarks. Let me be clear in 74 years of life growing up in the deep south I had black playmates and friends. My relatives employed many giving good jobs in their business. We never spoke in racist terms of anyone. Then in about 2008 a president brought race, a certain race, to the forefront. I paid attention and was shocked how division crept into our nation. I didn't know I was hated by so many blacks that don't even know me. Oh well, I'm a white cracker racist now I dislike them all right back. Two can play that but I can say I'll never vote for a democrat with a black face just for the reason the NYC mayor displayed they all think like he does. This redneck, honky, cracker is signing off let the mayor of NYC deal with his fellow tribesmen.

Wow, he really managed to pull one over on the residents of NYC. I hope they are as disgusted with him as the rest of us are. He learned well from Obama, and managed to get into office. I think he flunked though when it comes to hiding his true self just a bit longer.

Frankly, this craka' doesn't care a bit about what he calls me. It's the double standard that won't let me call him a ni-black.
The First black mayor, Dinkins, took longer to disappoint, and only served 1 term.

As much as I respect most of our police officers, being one does not prepare you to be Mayor of New York City. Mumbling platitudes at campaign appearances about lowering crime is predictably not leading to results. The guy is in way over his head and is compounding the problem by surrounding himself with his unqualified friends and relatives. Surfacing his racist remarks after the election is meaningless. New Yorkers would have elected him anyway. He checked all the right boxes and they hadn’t gotten enough misery from his predecessor and were eager for more. Hope their kids are enjoying their black bean and corn lunches.

Poor New Yorkers...they dealt with deblasio for years and now they're stuck with a racist mayor who thinks whites...who pay his salary... as crackers....no wonder the pathetic governor wants non/citizens to vote...she's losing the white/crackers with every dictate she utters...and the doofus mayor steps up to the plate to further damage New York...wonder how long New Yorkers will tolerate this...I checked some statistics on population of New York...in 1955 there were 8 million citizens...67 years later there are less than 8 million...wonder why...

Just reverse the races and the language - white mayor and black cops/citizens - and what would we have? The top story of every news outlet in the country, and a white mayor preparing his resignation speech.
