New York Mayoral candidate Eric Adams called himself the 'Biden of Brooklyn' at
White House Monday after meeting with President
Joe Biden about gun crimes – and says the topic of whether Biden wants more police on the beat 'didn't come up.'
Adams, the Brooklyn Borough president who is heavily favored in the mayor's race after his messy primary win, joined mayors, law enforcement and security officials as Biden seeks to get a handle on a surge in gun violence nationwide.
'You know they call me the Biden of Brooklyn,' Adams said outside the White House following his meeting with the president, Attorney General Merrick Garland, and other local leaders.
He called for responding to 'underlying causes' of violence.
'How do we have a prison system with 30 per cent of the people, the inmates, are dyslexic,' he said. 'That means the real crime didn't take place only on the streets. That took place int he Department of Education across America,' he said.
