The Democratic New York City mayor Eric Adams responded in a strange way after a woman seemed to curse him on Monday over his treatment towards homeless people.

Adams responded to a woman who shouted obscenities and appeared to be protesting at him by saying that one should be “happy” if someone wants to “make amour with them”. The exchange took place during a news conference Adams held to announce his plans to remove scaffolding in the city streets to kick-start the recovery of the business district.

The protester was heard saying “F—- you, ahole!” during the Monday press conference.

Adams replied, laughing: “She said that I was messing around with homeless people.” “One should feel happy when someone wants to make them love. “You know?”

1776 Coalition Sponsored D.C. isn’t singing Kumbaya just yet Quite frankly, we may have won the election, but there’s still a war to be fought and the Left isn’t resting; they’re regrouping. And now that Donald Trump is Time’s Person of the Year, you can be assured their feelings have been exacerbated. They’re not singing Kumbaya in DC just yet. In fact, they’re plotting ways to embarrass him and cause him to fail. Will you join our efforts to fight back and defeat them?. We can’t wait until January 21—that will be too late!

Adams did not explain his meaning, but instead took a question on a completely unrelated subject from a journalist. His office did not immediately respond to an inquiry for comment.

According to the Coalition for the Homeless, New York City is experiencing a rise in homelessness. It’s at its highest since the Great Depression. In December 2022 there were 68.884 homeless individuals, including 21.805 children in New York City’s main shelter system.

Adams’ press conference on Monday came less than a week after he was criticized for his similar-bizarre answer to a woman who expressed concern about high rent. The woman who interrupted Adams at a town-hall event in June accused the mayor of increasing rents and supporting them.

Adams told her, “If you’re going to ask me a question don’t disrespect me or point at me.” “I am the mayor of this city. Respect me the way I deserve it. You are an adult. Do not treat me like someone who lives on your plantation. “Give me the respect that I deserve, and join in the conversation here in Washington Heights.”

Adams went on to say, “Treat my with the same respect that I treat you.” Don’t point at me. Do not be disrespectful. Speak to me like an adult, because I am a man of age. I entered this room as an adult, and I will leave this room as an adult. I answered your question.”

The New York City Rent Guidelines Board released recommendations on June 21 that would allow landlords to raise rents this year by 3%. Adams said that the board made the right decision in finding the “right balance.”

Later, it was revealed that the woman Adams compared with a plantation was Jeanie dubnau, a housing activist whose family fled Nazi Germany to New York City in the early 1900s.
