Blue city mayor vows 'no tolerance' for anti-ICE violence as LA riots erupt: 'Unacceptable'

New York City Mayor Eric Adams took a harsh tone against any possibility of anti-ICE riots at a news conference on Monday, as cities around the country gear up for potential unrest.

Riots have occurred in Los Angeles in opposition to federal immigration authorities, in addition to demonstrations nationwide.

"I believe we must build a system based on trust not fear, but two wrongs do not make it right. I understand that some New Yorkers may be angry, afraid and ready to express that. New York City will always be a place to peacefully protest, we will not allow violence and lawlessness," Adams said. There have been protests throughout the city in recent days, Fox 5 New York reported.
