“My condolences and all our thoughts are with the individual’s family whose life is lost,” Wu said. “And I also think about all the people who were hit here today in one of the most prominent parts of the city with this tragedy.”

“When was the last time you heard that the mayor apologized to the Knife of the Note to the Knife who was allegedly trying to kill more people?” Choe asked. “What about people who were almost killed?”
“Boston, I’ll say that I can simply: you desperately need a new mayor. Believe me,” said conservative commentator Charlie Kirk in the Second Post X.
Fox News associate Joe Concha, a former Boston resident, also dealt with the incident.
“How did Boston vote for this again?” Concha wrote. “I lived in the Back Bay area. That was one of the safest parts of the city. And she is her condolences ????”
“Sau Mayor Boston’s Said – Wait – a man who holds a knife trying to kill people!” Tail. Nancy Mace, Rs.c., she said. “Fortunately, this guy stopped in his traces a brave officer for law enforcement.”
The incident came because Boston officials, including WU and Cox, attracted criticism of conservatives for the implementation of the city’s sanctuary policy. Catherine Vitale, a former City Council candidate, said last week “Fox and Friends” to believe that WU “doesn’t care” about the crime in Boston.
“There is a ton of crime almost every day. There is a shooting. We don’t always hear them, but we hear them because we are there. I don’t think most of the crimes are reported. People don’t arrest. The accusations do not press on people who are robbed with stores,” Vitale said.
