From the New York Post: An off-duty Boston cop fatally shot a lunatic who was trying to stab people at a Chick-fil-A over the weekend, prompting city officials to fall over themselves to offer heartfelt condolences — to the perp’s family.
The officer was in the right place at the right time in Boston’s wealthy Back Bay neighborhood Saturday evening when two people being chased by the knife-wielding man fled into the restaurant fearing for their lives.
The cop identified himself and ordered the suspect to drop his knife. When the armed maniac didn’t comply, the officer shot him. The suspect was rushed to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead, NBC10 Boston reported. There were no additional reported injuries.
At a press conference after the incident, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu — who has been repeatedly mocked for a cavalcade of harebrained “woke” schemes during her brief time in office — somberly expressed sorrow over the demise of the would-be stabber.
“My condolences, and all of our thoughts, are with the family of the individual whose life has been lost,” Wu said. “And I’m also thinking of all the people who were impacted here today in one of the busier parts of the city with this tragedy. I’m glad that the officer is safe and very grateful for a quick response from all of our first responders here again.”
An X account by “Bostonians Against Mayor Wu” posted a video of the Democrat mayor’s shocking statement, and wrote, “Tonight, a knife-wielding attacker tried to kill multiple people in Boston. Police stopped the threat and shot them @MayorWu went on television offering condolences—to the criminal. Unbelievable. This city cares more about protecting criminals than residents.”

The New York Post shared details on other jaw-dropping positions Wu has taken:
Wu, 40, was lambasted over the summer when she proposed a plan that would give illegal migrants and children as young as 11 voting rights in determining how millions of dollars in public funds are doled out in the city, a move ripped by critics as “tone-deaf” and “unserious.”
She also raised eyebrows in December 2023 for hosting a secret “electeds [sic] of color” holiday party — which white officials were expressly barred from attending.
Wu is being blasted for voicing her condolences to the family of the knife-wielding attacker.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk wrote, “Boston, I’m going to say this a simply as I can: You desperately need a new mayor. Trust me.”
Journalist Jonathan Choe responded, “Boston is finally catching up to far-left Seattle where everything is upside down.”

Empathy for violent criminals. Wokeness in a nutshell

Democrats have become the party of criminals.
Here’s the mayor of Boston offering condolences to the criminal who was trying to stab multiple people and refused to drop his weapon when ordered by an off-duty cop.
My party has lost the plot — this is madness. https://t.co/rO3UXORY4e

It’s all upside down in Boston. When is the last time you heard of a mayor apologizing to the family of a knife wielding attacker who allegedly tried to kill multiple people? What about the people who were nearly killed? https://t.co/BEuEFdYGtR
