It’s insane.
If it were you or I who got gunned down in NYC, this would never happen.
They keep telling us, we are all treated equal under the law.
It’s such BS.
America is a joke.

annabel-lee.bsky.social•71 days ago

No contest. Adams is a media whore.

catchafire.bsky.social•70 days ago

How is anyone supposed to get a fair trial with nonsense like this?

catchafire.bsky.social•70 days ago

He should sue Adam’s for cruel and unnecessary treatment(or whatever?). Who could argue? People are already comparing the spectacle to the theatrics in “Silence of the Lambs”.

sundaytrucker.bsky.social•70 days ago

There are no Jack Rubys for this one.

paulytheism.bsky.social•71 days ago

"Are you sure you brought enough guys?"

suezq8000.bsky.social•71 days ago

Stupid photo opp

visualgirlpa.bsky.social•71 days ago

I’ll take #2.

flyby9.bsky.social•71 days ago

It appears deployment of human resources in NYPD is extremely wrong and a waste of NYC taxpayer's dollars. Maybe the NYPD $budget is too big and money needs to be put in other needed areas.🌞

brownejax2024.bsky.social•70 days ago

photo op for the POS Eric to have a keepsakes for the felon.

antelopelabs.com•71 days ago

Lulz. No one is gunning for that guy.

insideeyeroll.bsky.social•71 days ago

This looks like a new ad for the Con-air redo…

segadelorean.bsky.social•71 days ago

FREE HIM IMMEDIATELY AND GIVE HIM A RIDE TO MELON HUSKS HOME

joyceandkarma.bsky.social•71 days ago

Photo op.

bits12.bsky.social•71 days ago

That's what first came to my mind as well.

andreagstylist.bsky.social•71 days ago

All for show. No one wants to kill Luigi. He will be American folk lore for years to come. They just want to look tough

talentedripley.bsky.social•71 days ago

Glad you’re here. Terror charges? Cuz billionaires got scared? 😱

mdbux.bsky.social•71 days ago

He was trying to look like a “law & order” “tough on crime” guy despite the fact that his long time top advisor was in court across the street facing bribery charges…

joseortega78.bsky.social•71 days ago

Someone please crop him out.

missgg.bsky.social•71 days ago

The latter.

pcrritesgood.bsky.social•71 days ago

A stupid photo op for a guy with 5 federal indictments... and also Luigi.

ziggeroonski.bsky.social•71 days ago

Photo op for the criminal mayor

sochi123.bsky.social•71 days ago

A lot of police for one guy in shackles. Crime must be way down in NYC.

annabel-lee.bsky.social•71 days ago

No, but police spending and ineptitude is way up.

gasboardchloe.bsky.social•71 days ago

It looks more like a photo op for Luigi Mangione tbh

notonebit.com•71 days ago

Nice of Luigi to escort Adams to jail

mollygchicago.bsky.social•71 days ago

A bunch of dudes wanting to look tough. 🤢

sickboy4ever.bsky.social•71 days ago

That’s just obscene!

cksavannah73.bsky.social•71 days ago

The answer is yes. To both.

blythewoolston.bsky.social•71 days ago

Who wants to see this as a moment of justice?

pumbles.bsky.social•71 days ago

When you're legend, all the girlies want to be in your photo 😉

thenegativeone.bsky.social•71 days ago

Yeah, I'm not sure what to think of this.

thedanksinatra.bsky.social•71 days ago

Gotta teach those poors to know their place.

melindameyer.bsky.social•71 days ago

It was an "anti copycat" display, and so is the treason charge. But people ferling they've been treated unjustified aren't watching their planning.

papakila.bsky.social•71 days ago

very much the latter

kelsea42.bsky.social•71 days ago

I know they are trying to scare people off that are inspired by him but this mess just pisses people off more. Like we get it, we are plebeians that must be contained.

mom6.bsky.social•71 days ago

This will draw even more attention to him.
A taxpayer funded attention that is.

bossylefty.bsky.social•71 days ago

IF they're trying to make him a target for, say, a sniper, they're doing a fabulous job.

michigangsta.bsky.social•71 days ago

Imagine if they cared that much when he wanted health coverage he was paying for

kjm999.bsky.social•71 days ago

Im going with “B”.

mrcontrariwise.bsky.social•71 days ago

It's so their billionaire bosses know that they're on the job.

moreyellowthanblue.teamlh.social•71 days ago

Them: let’s not sensationalize Luigi! (for obvious fucking reasons)
Also them: let’s transport him like Arthur Fleck 🃏 (that’s the Joker fyi)
🤦🏻‍♀️

kjf2025.bsky.social•71 days ago

His lawyer is going to get some of the charges dropped. Act of terrorism? Really??

jscott47.bsky.social•70 days ago

Utterly ridiculous

elkaneo.bsky.social•71 days ago

protecting luigi from those psychopath ceos 🫡

michaeltheyoung.bsky.social•71 days ago

Adams bout to be in the orange suit next LMAO

jimmy2fonts.bsky.social•71 days ago

It’s a double-perp walk.

gertruxe.bsky.social•71 days ago

Men being hysterical…

oweraj.bsky.social•71 days ago

Let’s be fair, this was ALSO a photo op for the NYPD

vineetee.bsky.social•71 days ago

Totally unnecessary. As is the Luigi worship. He’s a criminal scum who needs to rot in prison.

pcrritesgood.bsky.social•71 days ago

I assume you are talking about the guy in the photo with 5 federal indictments, behind Luigi.

vineetee.bsky.social•71 days ago

Sure him too. Though discounted Turkish airline tickets doesn’t seem as bad as murder.

pixie.posts.art•71 days ago

Damn you dumb as fuck lmao

vineetee.bsky.social•70 days ago

He’s not gonna fuck you bro

pixie.posts.art•70 days ago

The fuck are you even talking about

lavalips.bsky.social•71 days ago

ADAMS SHOULD GO TO PRISON. HE AINT SHIT.

lib50.bsky.social•71 days ago

I getting really annoyed this death seems more important than all the other Americans who are killed by America's gun violence.

creekchubdarter.bsky.social•71 days ago

It’s so fucking Trumpy. What a dope.

chew28.bsky.social•71 days ago

Right, like what danger does he pose unarmed and shackled and how much danger is he in as far as retribution…are they concerned about a ceo hiring a hitman? And he’s not a trained assassin so seems media attention has them doing the most for little to no reason.

pnk1.bsky.social•71 days ago

I always wonder about this type of thing, too. It defies my logic not to "shelter" or otherwise flank a detainee (including protective gear) with LEOs if safety is a real concern. But then, I am not quite bright either 🤔 💁🏾‍♀️.

g0ush.bsky.social•71 days ago

raggedy-android.bsky.social•71 days ago

I’m inclined to believe he needed it given how people are all about defending him right now, wanting him free

threequarters.bsky.social•71 days ago

Photo op. Funny thing, they think it makes them look strong instead it makes them look week and silly.

lemon-wren.bsky.social•71 days ago

Clearly no one told them Luigi Mangione is just accused of murdering a single health insurance CEO, not the entire Justice League. 🙄

protestcheese.bsky.social•71 days ago

they just can't help making him look cool. if they really wanted to make him look like a tool, they'd make him drive a cybertruck to his booking

itsattachment.bsky.social•71 days ago

Right…especially seeing how this kid willingly went back to NYC.

bradttt25.bsky.social•71 days ago

Copaganda

memory260.bsky.social•71 days ago

They want rich people to believe they can protect them. Adams wants to be re-elected

wutangforchildren.bsky.social•71 days ago

Hahaha nailed it 🎯 https://bsky.app/profile/pcrritesgood.bsky.social/post/3ldosp2ctdc2p

stephstags.bsky.social•71 days ago

That's a lot of expensive protection for a "terrorist"
Don't give him the time of day.

seawoll.bsky.social•71 days ago

Most of that entourage will have family who’ve died because of the profiteering health insurance industry.

sinistra00.bsky.social•70 days ago

Were they afraid Luigi was going to run away? Like 2 city cops wouldn't be enough to handle that? Or were they afraid someone would attack him? Not likely, who would? Even if that were the case then why isn't he wearing a vest. You're right, just a photo-op.
