Mayor Eric Adams insisted Tuesday that New York City first responders wouldn’t mishandle a school shooting like last week’s massacre in Texas — declaring NYPD officers and medics would “go in with an active shooter” unlike police in Uvalde. 

“That is not going to happen in New York. We go in with an active shooter,” he said during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

“Not only would the police go in with an active shooter, but the FDNY, EMS, they’re trained to go in with an active shooter,” the mayor added. “It appears as though this was treated more like a barricaded armed person or a hostage negotiation scenario instead of an active shooter.”

“Here in New York City, well-trained, deep intelligence — the goal is to go in and stop the immediate threat right away.”

During the morning TV appearance, Adams also revealed that he plans to speak to Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin later on Tuesday.

“I’m going to call him today, because this is a mayors’ battle,” he said in reference to gun violence. “Mayors are being impacted by that.”

In the days after the May 24 school shooting, Uvalde authorities have come under intense scrutiny for their handling of it. Police did not enter Robb Elementary School for more than an hour after arriving at the campus, where a teenager fatally shot his innocent victims with an AR-15.

Texas state Sen. Roland Gutierrez revealed on CNN that the mother of one of the young massacre victims recalled to him how a first-responder told her the child might have lived if cops hadn’t been slow to move in on 18-year-old Salvador Ramos as he gunned down 19 fourth-graders and two teachers.

School District Police Chief Pete Arredondo allegedly instructed police to remain outside the school for 78 minutes while young students inside called 911 for help and frantic parents begged cops outside to storm the school. Days after the shooting, police revealed the existence of harrowing 911 calls made by several students while they were trapped inside with the gunman, as one kid pleaded with a dispatcher, “Please send police now!”

Former NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton lamented in an interview that aired Sunday that it’s “mind-boggling” how much Texas authorities mishandled the deadly rampage. 

Meanwhile, the Justice Department announced it would conduct a probe of the police response to the mass shooting.

Due to the blowback, Uvalde officials on Monday canceled Tuesday’s planned City Council meeting when Arredondo was set to be sworn in as a new member.

On Friday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott fumed that he was “livid” that law enforcement “misled” him about their response to the rampage at the elementary school. Abbott —  who earlier last week praised police for their “quick response” to the mass shooting — said initial information police provided to him about it was inaccurate, causing him to release misleading details to the public Wednesday. 

On Monday, McLaughlin insisted that local law enforcement had not misled anyone.

Earlier in his cable hit, Adams reiterated his calls for the federal government crack down on ghost guns and to enact stricter gun-control laws.

“This is a national crisis, and we have not been tackling this as a national crisis,” he said.

He also again called on social media companies to flag people who post content on their platforms that indicate they may be a threat to others.

“We need the social media industry to be part of this, using artificial intelligence to identify those who are using dangerous terms,” said the mayor.

Asked by MSNBC’s Willie Geist how he can improve safety in the subway system, which has been home to four homicides in 2022, Adams pointed to a crackdown on rule-breaking and sleeping in the subway, sweeping of homeless encampments and adding cops to patrol underground. 

“Omnipresence is the key,” he told the “Morning Joe” hosts. “We’re going to continue to evolve, get more and more officers out of desk duty into the subway system to deal with the feeling of disorder, and then zero in on those who are impacting our quality of life.”

“We stopped going after people who are jumping the turnstile — wrong thing to do,” he added, referring to district attorneys who have opted in recent years to not prosecute those caught fare-beating. “We’re dealing with quality of life, zeroing in on those dangerous people in the subway system, and we’re going to see the results of that.”
