Democratic Socialist candidate Mamdani, who surprised the political world from the coast to the coast with his amazing victory for the mayor in the New York City Democratic Party Primary last month, commented in the 2020 podcast.
“If someone is Jaywalking, if someone is alive, is going through domestic violence -there are many different, different situations that will be better controlled by those trained to deal with those specific situations, as unlike a person with a gun,” said the mammadani.
