Mayor Zohran Mamdani showed his true colors over the weekend when he responded to the attempted ISIS-inspired bombing of an anti-Muslim protest by first condemning “white supremacy” before getting around to saying “violence at a protest is never acceptable.”

That’s one way of putting it.
It took NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch to issue her own statement for the full gravity of the attack to be officially acknowledged.

This is what happened on Saturday: Two suspected ISIS sympathizers threw handmade bombs into a group of police and anti-Muslim protesters outside Gracie Mansion, one while yelling “Allahu Akbar.”
Luckily, the improvised explosive devices — packed with an explosive known as “Mother of Satan” along with shrapnel — malfunctioned before they could kill or maim people nearby.
Tisch said the bomb squad has examined one of the devices, which “is not a hoax device or a smoke bomb. It is, in fact, an improvised explosive device that could have caused serious injury or death.”
Mamdani made no mention of the suspects’ ideology while railing against the “white supremacist” protest “rooted in bigotry and racism.
“Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are.”
Drawing a moral equivalence between “hate” speech and literal Islamist bomb-throwers is not “who we are,” either.
It’s only the radical left that believes speech is violence, but violence is something to tolerate for the right cause.
