New York BLM leader warns Eric Adams of 'bloodshed,' 'riots' if city brings back tougher policing
Adams calls himself a progressive but rejected mantras to 'defund the police'

The head of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York met with Eric Adams, the city’s mayor-elect, to discuss policing and warned that there will be "bloodshed" if the city returns to its pre-De Blasio model, according to a report.
Adams, himself a former police captain, on Wednesday met with Hawk Newsome, the BLM leader, and others behind closed doors at Brooklyn’s Borough Hall, the New York Daily News reported.
The meeting was tense and turned into a shouting match, the paper reported. One of the key issues raised was the possibility that the city could reinstate its anti-crime unit, which Newsome compared to the Nazi Gestapo.
