NYC Mayor Adams Sparks Controversy by Lashing Out at Constituent

Mayor Eric Adams berated a woman at a community event for asking about high rent.
Adams accused the woman of treating him like "someone on the plantation."
He emphasized the need for respect and adult conversation.
Adams stated that he doesn't control rent increases, which are decided by the NYC Rent Guidelines Board.
The Rent Guidelines Board recently recommended a 3% rent increase for rent-stabilized apartments in NYC.
