Adams, Tisch and New York’s Finest show LA how it’s done

As Los Angeles suffers riots and the indignity of rescue by President Trump, let’s take a moment to appreciate the NYPD.

When it comes to handling unruly protests, ICE raids and stopping violence cold, New York’s Finest stand head and shoulders above their LAPD and Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department counterparts.

Of course, Mayor Eric Adams also stands in stark contrast to LA’s Karen Bass: Where she all but summoned up the riots last Friday, he this week called the violence in Los Angeles “unacceptable” and warned it “would not be tolerated if attempted in our city.”

And of course, he didn’t have police hold off for two hours when NYC protesters began to push the boundaries.

So New York City won’t need to accept Trump’s offer of federal assistance.

Nor will it tolerate a repeat of the mayhem and violence that accompanied the George Floyd and Black Lives Matter protests in summer 2020, when the NYPD had to suffer the “leadership” of hapless Mayor Bill de Blasio.

The department is “expert in policing protests,” Commissioner Jessica Tisch calmly explained in a weekend call with the feds. “We have lots of practice at it and our cops are the best in the world. It is our responsibility to maintain safety and order on our streets and we will not abdicate that responsibility.”

And let’s be clear on who the would-be rioters are: a pack of college students, veteran agitators and trustafarians.

Of the 86 people busted during Tuesday’s anti-ICE protests in Lower Manhattan, 34 others earned criminal charges, including:

• Rachel Schreiber of Brooklyn — whose parents own a $3 million home in Westhampton Beach — is facing resisting arrest, reckless endangerment and attempted assault charges in the melee.

• Vega Gullette, 19 and a student at Sarah Lawrence College in Yonkers, was charged with second-degree assault and disorderly conduct; she’s the daughter of actor, screenwriter and director Sean Gullette.

• Robert Mills, charged with reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct, was previously charged with obstructing governmental administration at an April anti-Israel protest in Brooklyn.

Peaceful protests are lawful, and fully protected in this town, but the agitators looking to get violent will get shut down, fast.

Kudos to Adams and Tisch for laying down the law — and backing it up with action.
