Curtis Sliwa’s spent decades confronting crime when others hid—patrolling subways, busting drug rings, and putting his life on the line with the Guardian Angels. That’s leadership forged in New York’s grit, not drafted in some activist’s echo chamber. Meanwhile, Zohran Mamdani’s idea of “public safety” is defunding police, cheering BDS, and refusing to condemn Hamas atrocities. He doesn’t protect neighborhoods—he weaponizes them for ideological theater.

Sliwa’s record isn’t nostalgia—it’s proof he’ll actually show up when chaos hits. Mamdani? He’ll just hashtag his solidarity while the city burns. Ethical choice? Sliwa’s the only adult in the race.

Mamdani’s a radical cosplaying as a leader, pushing policies that’d turn NYC into a sanctuary for criminals, not citizens.
