Mayor suggests not wearing headphones in subway due to crime

noted, "I rode the subway yesterday. I haven't put my air pods in for over a year because I feel like I need to be very much aware. That's a quality of life issue."

Mayor Adams responded, "I think that you are right about you know not having your iPods and not focusing on phone. And I say yes to that, I do the same and we put out a video and information telling people about being aware of what's around them and what's taking place. I encourage New Yorkers to do that."On Day One I took the subway system, I felt unsafe. I saw homeless everywhere. People were yelling on the trains.

The mayor has been pushing a narrative that as much as crime is an issue, the administration has to make people feel safe in the mass transit system.Mayor Adams questioned about subway safety New York City Mayor Eric Adams was questioned about subway crime and the migrant crisis in an interview on Good Day New York on Friday.

Crime is not limited to only stealing phones or headphones, is also pushing people onto tracks, slashings, stabbings, sexual assaults...you were a police officer, Mayor...you should know better on how to reduce crimes underground

Why should Tax paying citizens be subjected to form of control , when our city officials should be tackling crime from every corner and every Pct until the last drop of ink ✍️

Mayor Adams should get a job he’s qualified for.

How about we just arrest the crazies instead 🤡

Also people should be on phone with someone while on their way home to house or apartment, or on elevator when they’re alone. I Suggest that you consider a Jitney to ride them home. Queens is a secluded dangerous place because of the people that choose the area to commit crimes.

Clown clown clown clown , vote Zeldin!!!

Another reason to vote for Lee Zeldin - let’s clean up New York

It’s a spam news…I HOPE!🇺🇸🇸🇻💙

How about putting the violent offenders behind bars and preventing them from getting out again?

mrorlj55 2some extent ok..but people du such, earphones oon 2 KILL STRESS

Sounds like he’s victim-blaming instead of protecting transit riders from violent crime…

How about WE keep our phones and ear buds…and YOU get the crime out of our subways! NYCMayor

This stuff wasn’t a problem for 20 years until democrats took total control of the state

We need Rudy.

should pass a City ordinance that the whole NYC now a sensitive place 'headphones and cellphones free zones'

NYCMayor due more policing in train stations… not just standing by the clerk booths.

If this doesn’t work, the next option the mayor will suggest is getting a “spidey-sense”.

He's not wrong, how about paying attention to your surroundings. Don't be a welcoming victim.

How about putting more police on the subway

The criminals are going against the system, the more you make a situation better they brakes it, That's to make things harder for Black's in position to change things...

This is not it...NYC has reverted to the 1980's.

Really know how to pick leaders for that shithole

Eric Bellinger Says Billboard Is Wrong, R&B Needs Separation From RapBillboard's hot take -- forecasting the downfall of Hip-Hop/R&B smash hits -- angered many fans in both communities because it lumps the 2 genres together, and you can count Eric Bellinger in that pissed-off set. R needs to go away from the B. B is for blues, and most R&B tunes don’t sound bluesy to me. It’s just black pop music. There are a tiny few that still pop out a song and it’ll sound bluesy. Example: Alicia Keys Fallen. That has a slow rhythm plus it’s bluesy, most others are not
