    .@NYCMayor wrote in a 2009 book that he fired a gun at a group of friends at school, thinking it was a toy. Today, he said that incident didn't happen, and that the coauthor of the book must have misunderstood his anecdote. bylinebyline.com/articles/eric-…

    Two things: 1.) The cover of the book lists only Adams as the author (with a forward by his partner Tracey Collins) 2.) He also said the book never made it into print because it did not go through the proofreading process. @katie_honan, however, was able to order a copy

    After the original graffiti was cleaned off, on March 15 two neighborhood coordination officers waited behind the fake wall (for how long @NYPDTransit Chief Delatorre couldn't say.) "Sure enough, our man came back and put up again #lovetrump on the beam."
